Como 1907 Strengthens Its Social Commitment by Supporting Our Furry Friends as Well

This year, the Club will stand alongside Parco Canile Valbasca, a key facility for the reception and care of abandoned dogs in the Como area, managed by the Como Section of E.N.P.A. – the National Animal Protection Authority.

Como 1907’s support for the Valbasca Canine Park stems directly from the participation of its fans. All proceeds from the sale of products in the Pet Collection, the Club’s dedicated line for dogs, will be entirely donated to the shelter, providing concrete contributions to ensure care, housing, and well-being for the animals hosted there.

The Club supports this initiative because it strongly believes in responsible adoption, volunteering, and education in animal respect, principles that align with the social mission of Fondazione Como ETS, which aims to involve the community in meaningful support actions. Through this collaboration, fans and citizens are encouraged to reflect on the importance of caring for animals, choosing responsible adoption, and recognizing the value of volunteer work.

These guiding principles also define the work of Parco Canile Valbasca, which accommodates up to 100 dogs within a facility spanning over half a hectare. The structure includes kennels equipped with sheltered night areas and open-air daytime spaces, large exercise zones, shared play areas, and dedicated green parks. It is not merely a shelter: it is an educational center that promotes knowledge and respect for animals, raising awareness about responsible and mindful coexistence between people and dogs.

Each year, the facility welcomes dogs from more than 80 municipalities in the province of Como, providing veterinary care, sterilization, and psychological support, all the way through to the search for a new family. Thanks to the commitment of volunteers and the support of ENPA, every dog lives in a safe and comfortable environment, while the values of solidarity, care, and animal protection are shared with the entire community.

As an ENPA facility, the Valbasca Canine Park fully embraces the association’s mission: ensuring animal welfare, protecting them from mistreatment, promoting adoption, and supporting their medical and psychological recovery. In addition, through its volunteer Animal Protection Officers, ENPA collaborates with Public Security authorities to monitor cases of abuse and to combat illegal activities involving animals, offering further protection to the dogs housed in the shelter.

With this collaboration, Como 1907 reaffirms its commitment to supporting essential local organizations, ensuring that the Club’s values of solidarity, community and social responsibility extend beyond the pitch, reaching those who have no voice: our beloved dogs.
