*** KENAN AND KEL ARE A BONDED PAIR. THEY MUST BE ADOPTED TOGETHER. ***

If you're searching for the most loving, silly best friends, these boys are the pair you want to have around!
Kenan and Kel are a bonded pair, so they must be adopted together. They love each other very much and would be so very, VERY sad if they got separated.
Kenan (more white, & bigger ears) and Kel (more brown and smaller ears) are Corgi / Chihuahua mixes. Kenan is 8 months old and 14 lbs, and Kel is 2 years old and 10 lbs.
Kenan and Kel were found living on the streets together in Houston. They've been through it together, and have a very strong bond and love for each other, especially after everything they have been through together.
From the boy's foster:

"Sweetest bonded pair here! What sweet boys! They do well with other dogs and they're super friendly. They love each other so much, and it's so cute!
A bit of initial “what the heck is this” but now, both look to us for a happy voice and praise to know new people and situations are okay. They do well crated together. If they are separated from each other, they will howl or cry. They do everything together and are each other's support systems.
They are very bonded and truly should be kept together. Their bond is palpable! They thrive on praise, are treat motivated for easy training, and are quick learners.
They are sweet boys that will make someone very happy."

We understand that not everyone is looking to adopt two dogs at one time, but with a bonded pair like Kenan and Kel, 2 is truly easier than 1! They have each other to play with, to cuddle, and to occupy.
Farfel's Rescue and our Houston rescue partners would love to see Kenan and Kel 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 them left alone all day while their family works full-time outside of the home, as they are much too social for that type of arrangement.
We'd like to place this sweet pair in a home where they'll get consistent stimulation, exercise and love. A (virtual or in-person) positive reinforcement group training class promotes great behavior, bonding and confidence for these young guys. 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.
Kenan and Kel have been fully vetted, are in great health, up to date on their vaccines, and 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.
