Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Whenever a sweet and kind Schnauzer mix gets into an urgent situation, Farfel's rescuers like to help. We find that pups of this breed mix are so loving, smart & intuitive. They also fit so well into a family...and make great companions for all age groups. Sometimes rescue dogs are initially a bit shy....but put them in a home with a loving family and frequent socialization...and they will shine. Geena is about 3.5 years old (such a great age - young enough to be active and adventurous, yet old enough to understand her adult skills) and weighs 21 lbs. Never let it be said that 21 lbs is too large for a lap dog....Geena will gently warm your lap and express her love. Geena has inherited the superior intelligence of the Schnauzer breed along with the curiosity of the Terrier...she is therefore so excited for her family to teach her the wonders of her world. If Geena is trained with positive reinforcement, given tons of love, socialization with both humans of all ages and other dogs...she will grow into a self-confident dog who will be a wonderful companion. She has all the elements working in her favor since she's starting out with a great temperament, a love of life and a puppyish desire to please.
We'd like to place Geena in a home with either active retirees or a younger family who loves spending lots of time with a fuzzy and devoted family member. Geena would also enjoy the company of a fun and respectful canine...she would love the playtime. She will shine for a family who is motivated to take her to group obedience classes and to bring out all the wonderful qualities and loyalty that live inside this incredibly cute Schnauzer mix.
Geena would love hiking the trails of Colorado (she's the perfect size to enjoy running the mountains), window-shopping on Pearl Street to fine-tune her urban skills and being a very present companion all through the day. With feelings of security within the family, Geena will learn the skills of being alone and knowing her family will aways return.
Geena has a beautiful, non-shedding Benji-like coat. With periodic baths, brushing and great nutrition, she will develop the cottony-soft, shining hair of a healthy, well-cared for coat.
Geena will be arriving on transport in Denver on 10/31. Applications are currently being accepted for this sweet and devoted best friend and can be found at http://farfelsrescue.com/adoption/. If interested, please fill out and return to farfelsapps@gmail.com.
