Meet Eddie! Eddie is a sweet and gentle boy, who found himself in a big, scary, overcrowded shelter in New Mexico.
Farfel's got an email plea to help save Eddie's life, and we knew we had to help this sweet Aussie mix... I mean just look at that sweet video!!!
Eddie is a 2 year old, 36 lb Australian Shepherd / Border Collie mix.
He is a sweet boy who is good with dogs and people, and very affectionate. This sweet boy is a bit timid at first with all of his recent life changes, but give him a few days and he warms up.
Eddie, once he was warmed up and is comfortable in his new environment, is a young, playful, and silly pup who will love his family with all his heart. He would enjoy another dog in the home, as he came into the shelter with another doggy friend (who unfortunately was adopted from the shelter without Eddie) and loves other dogs.
Eddie will have so much fun exploring, and taking long walks and hikes along Colorado's gorgeous paths and trails. Hiking and socializing with other hikers is right down this friendly and active guy's alley. He is always open to new activities with a never-ending positive attitude.
We'd like to place Eddie in a home where he'll get consistent stimulation, exercise and love. A (virtual or in-person) positive reinforcement group training class promotes great behavior, bonding and confidence. Training is so important in the future behaviors of every dog. It's for this reason that we're unwilling to adopt to a family that doesn't make this loving choice. Farfel's is happy to provide a list of both in-person and virtual positive reinforcement / force- free trainers in your area.
Eddie is up-to-date on his vaccines, has been fully vetted, and is neutered.
Farfel's Rescue is a fully foster based rescue, and offers a one week trial with every adoption. We feel that this is much more beneficial to not only the dog, but the adopter too. We believe that only getting 20-30 minutes with a dog before deciding on a lifetime commitment is not a fair amount of time to the adopter, or the dog. Therefore we give adopters one week with the dog to assure it is the right fit, and offer a full refund of their adoption fee should it not workout within the week trial.
Farfel's Rescue has been doing adoptions this way since 2005 and is thrilled to adopt out ~400 dogs each year.

An Adoption Application and an Adoption Contract must be completed before any dog can begin their one week foster. Our average adoption fee is $695. This amount serves to cover vetting, spay/neuter, all vaccinations, temperament testing, transport, a microchip, harness, food, and treats.
Our dogs come from Texas, Kansas, New Mexico, Oklahoma and rural Colorado.

Pets are transported from the southern states every week. Almost 100% of the time, the dogs are spoken for as a result of adoption applications that can be referenced under Adoption at farfelsrescue.com. We study the applications. If the app indicates there is a match, followed up by a home visit and reference checks, the process moves to the next step. The adopter is committing to a one week foster (of course the dog can be returned at any time prior), and can then choose to finalize the adoption.
