Here's what the humans have to say about me:
** If you are interested in adopting Julie please fill out our adoption application at http://farfels.com/farfels-rescue/adoption-form/ **
Julie is a sweet and petite, 3 year old, 12lb Chihuahua / Dachshund mix. This little mama was found as a stray in Pampa, Texas, pregnant and all alone. She gave birth to her puppies in the shelter and lovingly cared for them until one by one, they were adopted or transferred to rescues in Colorado. Through it all, Julie waited patiently for her own second chance.
Now that her puppies are no longer dependent on her, Julie finally got her freedom ride and we welcomed her to Colorado!
Julie arrived to Farfel's Farm & Rescue in early August 2025, and was adopted. However now Julie has found herself back in the system after her adopter lost their job and couldn't care for her anymore. Poor Julie has been through more than she should at such a young age! She is such a sweet girl who really deserves the world.
From Julie's foster:
"This little nugget is TOO sweet! She does great with other dogs, loves to play, and just wants to be loved. She comes to work with me (dog daycare) and does so well playing with the other dogs and getting love from all the staff. She is incredibly sweet and just melts your heart when you look at her!!
She is potty trained and crate trained and just a real sweet little thing."
Julie is up to date on her vaccinations, has been fully vetted, is healthy, heartworm negative, and is spayed (no more puppies for this girl!).
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.
