My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

We all know how we get that awww feeling when we see an adorable young dog that needs our help. Popcorn was one of these dogs that deserves, due to his excellent temperament and all the love he'll bring to a family, to have a wonderful home filled with pure love and nurturing.

Popcorn was found as a stray in Texas, lost and alone on the scary streets. He was rescued and brought into a small local shelter. While terribly frightened, his temperament immediately spoke of his sweet and kind personality. Popcorn was immediately granted a transport ticket to a new beginning in Colorado.

Popcorn is a cute as can be 2 or so year old, 15 lb Chihuahua / Jack Russell Terrier mix that is nothing but pure love. This pup is SO sweet and once acclimated to his new life, will be a friendly and engaging pup that will give 100% of his heart to his new family.

Once he has acclimated, Popcorn will be a perfect size and weight to be able to accompany his favorite people everywhere a wonderful smaller dog is welcome. He will fit right into virtually every situation due to her great temperament and love of life. Our dream for this wonderful dog is a forever Colorado home with a family that cherishes him for life.

Popcorn will initially be frightened in his new home. This is to be expected due to the challenges he's faced in his life. As Popcorn becomes more and more comfortable in his forever home (with the help of his new family), he will blossom and become a fuzzy ball of good-will that loves to please. The happier his family is with his behavior, the more this sweetie pie will shine with his accomplishments.

Farfel's would like to see Popcorn in a home that includes him in family time and activities (and some lap or couch-time with belly rubs would be perfect!) as well as taking that extra step to participate in positive reinforcement / force free virtual or in-person obedience classes. These classes successfully teach a very smart and cooperative dog like Popcorn the skills to accompany his family out into the world with excellent behavior. Farfel's Rescue is happy to provide a list of approved virtual and in-person force-free trainers in your area.

Popcorn is so much fun to watch as he puts his positive energy into enjoying the day with his rescuer This little guy would do very well with retirees who are searching for a lovable new family member. He'll enjoy the attention and time that this age group usually puts in their pets. A younger family that works from a home-based office would be a perfect match as well. Popcorn would bask in the attention and periodic walks and cuddles throughout the day that this life-style offers.

Popcorn will require a lifelong commitment to periodic baths / brushing and great nutrition (5 star food and a daily salmon oil supplement are excellent protocols for longevity and coat care) to keep Popcorn's hair super- healthy and cottony-soft..

Applications are currently being accepted for this very loving best friend. Apps can be found at farfels.com or http://farfels.com/farfels-rescue/adoption-form/. If interested, please fill out completely and submit.

**PLEASE NOTE** If you're truly interested in adopting Popcorn 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 most 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.
