Meet Berry! Berry is an adorable 1 year old, 13 lb Chihuahua mix. This tiny girl had a rough start — she was found as a stray on the streets of Houston with a small healing scar on her forehead. We can only imagine what this petite sweetheart endured out there, but those days are far behind her now.
Berry can be a bit shy when she first meets new people, but she warms up very quickly and is the sweetest little thing. She’s a total lovebug who just wants to be close and soak up kindness.
From Berry's foster:
* * * *
"We love Berry! She gets along so well with our 3 dogs, she’s indifferent to our cat, and she seems potty trained! She is a HUGE snuggler!
She is extremely affectionate with us - she always wants to snuggle on the couch and get lots of loving. She loves burrowing under blankets.
We do have three dogs that she has been great with. She is usually not initiating the playfulness, but when our dogs start to play, she will run around in the backyard with them. She can be a bit of the fun police when other dogs start playing too rough, but she gets along great with them overall and is all about a calmer, more mellow dog vibe than rowdy play.
She loves squeaky toys and is learning how to play fetch and play around the house with our dogs.
We love her personality - she’s been amazing. She goes in a crate when we leave the home and at first she chewed the blankie up a little bit that was in her crate with her, so we leave toys with her in her crate now so she doesn't get bored.
She’s already opened up so much in just a week being with us - she was a little timid at first but is getting more and more comfortable and showing her wonderful personality."

Berry is up to date on her vaccinations, has been fully vetted, is healthy, heartworm negative, and is spayed.
Farfel's Rescue and our New Mexico rescue partners would love to see Berry in a home with an individual, family (older kids are preferred so there's no tail-pulling or awkward handling) or active retirees who have the time and love for a very loyal and sweet dog. We'd hate to see her left alone all day while her family works full-time outside of the home, as she is much too social for that type of arrangement.
We'd like to place Berry in a home where she'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.
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.
Applications are currently being accepted for our wonderful pup. If interested in this gorgeous, very cuddly/sweet and loving best friend, please fill out an application completely at http://farfels.com/farfels-rescue/adoption-form/ and submit.
**PLEASE NOTE** If you're truly interested in adopting from us, 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.

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.
