My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

We all know how we get that awww feeling when we see an adorable young puppy. They're so new and fresh with every possibility open to them. That's the case unless they're in a high-kill shelter that quickly runs out of space. We're so grateful for the efforts of our great Texas rescuer in saving Malia...she could see that her temperament was so kind and sweet that she couldn't allow her to be euthanized. Malia is the kind of very endearing puppy that will lie in your arms and give a periodic loving kiss... couldn't be more loving!

It turns out that Malia, at only about 9 weeks old and 5 lbs (expected to be approximately 12 - 15 lbs when full-grown) is very loving and so very endearing. Malia's like a blank slate...open and curious about everything around her. She's incredibly entertaining when she gets going. If she continues this regiment of socialization that promotes positive relationships with other dogs and bonding with humans…Malia will become a well-adjusted and pleasant adult companion.
Malia is a gorgeous tricolor rat terrier mix puppy with precocious behavior that speaks of good health. Her kind demeanor is just who she is…she just appears to be more analytical than your average crazy puppy. If Malia is treated kindly with clear behavioral guidelines, she will become a well-adjusted dog who respects her people as her leaders. This is the kind of family we're searching for for Malia. We also feel it's very important that she is provided with exercise and mental stimulation. She would be overjoyed with walking along Colorado paths and enjoying the sunshine. We'd like a family who spends lots of time at home and chooses to include a fuzzy companion in their activities.

Malia is being fostered in Colorado. Applications are currently being accepted and can be found at http://farfelsrescue.com/adoption/. If interested in this exceptional companion, please fill out and return to farfelsapps@gmail.com.
