Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Sierra would be such a perfect companion for anyone who is searching for that loyal and loving best friend. At 2.5 - 3 years old and about 30 lbs she is so pleasant that she can be a full-time best friend...accompanying her guardians everywhere a wonderful dog is allowed. It's always amazing to us at Farfel's Rescue that these dogs with great temperaments...as well as so very adorable...end up in precarious situations. Sierra was a last-minute save for us...she would have been euthanized in a dismal Texas shelter if kind Texas rescuers hadn't stepped up. But how could they not have? This very cute dog is just so awesome with her whole life lying in front of her...a life in which she can bring so much joy to a special family. Sierra, as a young girl is a blank slate waiting to learn about the world. With guidance, socialization and positive reinforcement obedience classes, Sierra can become a well-behaved and very bonded companion. She is an all-time snuggler and will cuddle her way into any heart! Sierra may be a bit shy initially as transport and rehoming is challenging for a pup...but with love and nurturing, she will absolutely shine We envision Sierra with a retired couple or individual...she would be overjoyed with the time she could spend in their company. It's not that Sierra is a needy or whiny girl...not at all...she just loves the company of her humans who respect her for all her wonderful traits. Sierra likes children and enjoys playing with them...but we would only be open to kids 10+ who can be gentle and understanding that Sierra only weighs 30 lbs and needs soft and kind handling. For those family members who enjoy walks and time outside in the beautiful Colorado scenery...Sierra would love nothing more than to share the experience. She is always up for a walk..fascinated by the activity around her. She breathes in the air...so happy to be free of the dismal shelter environment. Then...maybe her favorite part...it's time to end the day with hugs, belly rubs and a warm spot on the bed beside her favorite people. Sierra is a non-shedding (or maybe a hair or 2 - we can't quite tell) girl and will therefore require periodic baths/brushing and great nutrition to keep her coat cotton-soft and matt-free.
Sierra is being fostered in the Denver area. Applications are currently being accepted and Meet and Greets are being set up for this exceptional and loving family companion.
