We all know how we get that awww feeling when we see a sweet dog that is in need our help. Georgia was one of these dogs that was in dire need due to lack of space in a shelter and therefore facing euthanasia.
This gorgeous girl deserves so much better. She deserves a wonderful home that is filled with tons of love and nurturing. Georgia's excellent temperament is a gift that she'll bring to a dog-crazy family that is searching for that loyal best friend who will always be by their side.
Georgia is a 6 - 7 year old, 11 lb, Shih Tzu / Yorkshire Terrier mix. Farfel's can't swear to these breeds as no DNA test was done. Her mix was the opinion of shelter veterinarians and we'll go with their opinion. Georgia was saved from euthanasia due to her excellent temperament, love of life and very sweet demeanor with both humans and other dogs. She is untested with cats.
We received the following report from Georgia's foster:
* * ** *
"Georgia is a gentle girl with a heart as soft as her fluffy coat. This sweet little lady is the definition of friendly. She adores people and soaks up affection like sunshine. Whether you’re offering belly rubs, soft pets, or simply sitting nearby, Georgia is happiest when she’s close to the ones she loves.
Georgia enjoys a calm, cozy environment and would be a wonderful companion for someone looking for a loyal and affectionate best friend. She’s the perfect mix of relaxed and playful, always ready for attention but just as content to curl up beside you on the couch for an afternoon nap or a late night movie.
If a loving and very devoted pup is the answer to brighten your winter days, Georgia might be the perfect match. She’s ready to shower her forever family with warmth, sweetness, and plenty of tail wags.
This little cutie is so much fun to be around. She's goofy and loving and so very sweet! She was so happy go lucky this morning and when we went outside, she walked well and was so excited to be outdoors. She is great on leash and I do believe she is house trained. She only had one accident on her very first night here. Otherwise she knows to go outside and has only pottied outside! She definitely had a home before. I just love this little girl!"

We'd like to place Georgia in a home where she'll get consistent stimulation 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.
Georgia has been fully vetted and is up to date on her vaccinations. This support Farfel's commitment to adopting out only healthy dogs. She has also been spayed to reinforce our commitment to a euthanasia-free future in the canine population. Georgia has a mild, grade-3 heart murmur (on a scale out of 6). Our vet isn’t concerned, and dogs live long, happy, totally normal lives with murmurs just like this. It doesn’t slow her down one bit — she enjoys her walks, snuggles, and daily routine just like any other pup. We’re happy to answer questions, but truly, this is not expected to impact her quality of life or her ability to be the loving companion she already is.

**PLEASE NOTE** If you're truly interested in adopting Georgia please be sure to fill out our Farfel's Rescue adoption application found at the link above or at farfels.com. Adoption site applications such as Petfinder and Adoptapet don't provide enough information and therefore aren't useful. Our Farfel's application is the only initial tool that we have to determine a great match for this very deserving dog. We're sorry, but in many cases, we're unable to get back to those that don't submit our Farfel's Rescue adoption application. Thanks very much for choosing rescue.

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.
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.

More about this rescue
We own a pet boutique named Farfel's Farm & Rescue on Pearl Street in Boulder, Colorado. We have had the good fortune to find our niche in the Boulder community and experience success. We felt it very important to "pay it forward" in gratitude. We couldn't think of a better endeavor than to save dogs who were out of time in the southern states, yet had been identified with great temperaments. We dedicate our efforts to their good health and ultimate wonderful, permanent homes.
