Here's what the humans have to say about me:
We're so glad that Harvey was able to stay safe as he wandered through Houston as a stray...and finally was picked up and brought to a downtown shelter. His safety became questionable when he was slated for euthanasia due to the extremely overcrowded shelter conditions. No way that Farfel's could let that happen to this miniature white Poodle mix with the great temperament! Arrangements were quickly made...and Harvey left the shelter just in the nick of time.
This truly beautiful (in dire need of a bath and a serious haircut - will update photo as soon as Harvey is groomed) 12 - 18 month old Poodle mix left all the pain and misery of his previous life behind as he acclimated to the security of a home, great nutrition and lots of love and belly rubs! We found...to our delight...that Harvey is a very loving and sweet guy. He really enjoys his time with his foster parents...especially if it's about snuggling or leisurely walks. Since Harvey has been deprived of human attention for at least a part of his short life, he needs a bit of assurance that he's loved in a forever sort of way. He seemed to be unsure... but we notice that he gains confidence every day that he interacts with well-meaning and kind humans. We envision Harvey in a home with a canine sibling and guardians that choose to spend lots of time having fun with their dog.
Harvey would be ecstatic to spend this quality time and would definitely form a fast and forever bond. He wants to please like none other...it almost seems like he's gathered the wisdom that guides him toward wanting to achieve great behavior. Just show him the way and he'll always want to succeed. Harvey would be great for positive reinforcement group obedience classes. He will be learning skills with his family that creates bonding and great behavior. No stress in taking Harvey to social situations...he gets along so well with everyone and is a pleasure to be with. A loving family that has the time and desire to form a close relationship with a pup that truly deserves it is our goal for our exceptional Harvey.
Harvey is a non-shedding dog whose hair type is considered to be hypoallergenic. He will therefore require periodic grooming and great nutrition to keep his cotton-soft coat healthy and matt-free.
Harvey will be arriving on transport in Boulder on 731/15. Applications are currently being accepted and can be found at http://farfelsrescue.com/adoption/. If you're interested in this sweet. cuddly and fun-loving pup, please fill out and return to farfelsapps@gmail.com, fax to 303-443-7730 or mail a hard copy to Farfel's Farm 906 Pearl Street Boulder, CO 80302.
