Miniature Poodle puppies and dogs in Louisville, Colorado

***If you are interested in Charlie, be sure to read his entire bio. We have included a lot of important information about the home that Charlie needs to be successful.*** Charlie is a beautiful Poodle / Maltese mix. He is a young guy, at just 1 year old (although his foster says she wouldn't be surprised if he was 8 months old) and he weighs 14 lbs. Charlie is a sweet soul who’s had a challenging start in life. Found on the streets of Texas, Charlie arrived at the shelter frightened and unsure of the world around him. But since his journey to Colorado and settling into a loving foster home, he’s started to blossom, and has shown us the wonderful dog he’s meant to be. From Charlie's foster: * * * * "Charlie is hands down one of my favorite foster dogs to date! He is goofy, playful, sweet, cuddly, crate trained, and (99.9%) potty trained! Charlie absolutely LOVES other dogs and I think it is 100% necessary that he go to a home with at least one other dog. My dogs helped him warm up fast and he love love loves other dogs! He also loves my potbelly pig and always snuggles him. Charlie really is just a huge lover through and through. He is definitely a puppy! Once he warmed up and started showing his personality, it became clear that he is young! He is very playful, loves toys, and does tend to occasionally chew on things that he shouldn't like my couch pillow or my bedsheet. It's not bad, and really only once in a while that I catch him chewing something he shouldn't. As long as toys are around for him, he is pretty good at chewing on just the toys! He stays in a crate when we are not home for this reason, and he does great in his crate. He even has a bed and 4 blankets in his crate and he hasn't chewed those! Charlie is very smart! He learned "sit" and "shake" super fast, with the help of some cheddar cheese. When he first came home with me, he was really scared, and straight out of the scary shelter + a scary, long drive from Texas to Colorado. It took him about 3 days to fully warm up to me, but since warming up, he's a totally great, happy, silly, playful, puppy. Even though Charlie has completely warmed up with me, he may be confused / sad / scared when he gets adopted. His adopter should just respect his pace at which he warms up. If you let him come around on his own terms, he warms up very fast. He was scared the first day he came home with us, and we just let him be and let him come to us for attention, rather than forcing pets on him. Within 3 days, he was almost fully warmed up. After just 5 days with us, Charlie was totally comfortable, not scared anymore, and a happy go lucky guy! For the first few days, I left his leash attached to him 24/7 so I could take him out to potty without stressing him out too much (he didn't want to be touched for the first 2 days). After the first week, Charlie can now come out to our yard (6 foot fence) without a leash to potty with our dogs and he does his business and follows everyone inside when we're done. It's important for his adopter to take him out to potty ON LEASH, even in a fenced in yard for the first week, until he has fully warmed up to you. If you let him out off leash before he is comfortable, he will try to run away and won't follow you back inside or come when called. He needs to warm up / bond to you first. Once he has warmed up, he will come right inside when you call him or when the other dogs go in! Charlie should NEVER be left unattended in a yard, no matter how tall your fence. This means he can NOT go to a home with a dog door, or with anyone who leaves their dogs outside or with access to the outdoors when they are not home. Now we've had him for 3 weeks and he's the best dog ever! He LOVES us and is super affectionate. He loves to get pets, play, getting the zoomies, and he LOVES THE SNOW! Charlie integrated into our home routine VERY fast. He knows where to go when we let him out of his crate in the morning (straight to the door to go potty outside), he knows his place that he eats and when I set the other dogs bowls down he waits for his bowl in his spot. He is a smart guys and settled in so well and we know that if he is just given those few days of patience in the beginning, he will settle into his forever home just as well! He's really a really amazing dog. He will be the best buddy for someone!" * * * * We would like to have Charlie join a couple or individual that works from a home-based office. He is too social to be left alone for full time hours while his adopter works outside of the home. Since he can be timid at first, Charlie will need to go to a home with no kids. Charlie is up to date on his vetting/vaccinations to be in line with our commitment to adopting out only healthy dogs. He has also been neutered to fulfill our commitment to a euthanasia-free future. Charlie is available for adoption now. Applications are currently being accepted for this very sweet, loving and loyal best friend. An application can be found at http://farfels.com/farfels-rescue/adoption-form/. If interested, please fill out completely and submit. **PLEASE NOTE**. If you're truly interested in adopting Charlie, please be sure to submit our adoption application. It's the only initial tool that we have to determine a great match for this very deserving dog. We're sorry, but in many circumstances, we're unable to get back to those that don't submit a Farfel's Farm adoption application. Thanks very much for choosing rescue.

Janelle has lived with our Nana for 8 years. She was a companion for her other mini poodle who passed away last year. Nanas health has declined and she is unable to provide Janelle everything she needs. Janelle loves to play, gallop around the yard and snuggle. She will be the best lap dog.

Hey there, I`m Theo! I`m as sweet as a sugar cookie and twice as goofy. I ended up here at the shelter because I mistook the neighbor`s inflatable pool for a giant water bowl. They weren`t too thrilled, but I sure had a ball! I`ve got a heart full of love and a spirit full of play, ready to bring joy to your everyday. If you`re looking for a buddy to make you laugh, look no further. I promise to fill your life with tail wags, sloppy kisses, and endless games of fetch. I am young and have a lot to learn, please teach me how to be your perfect pet! Adopt me, and let`s start our adventure together!What I Need In a Home:* Kids 12+ mandatory

This sweet girl will make an amazing companion! She loves being held and chilling on your lap. She is small enough to travel with and will totally be your next best friend.

This precious dog is available to the right adopter who will be patient and give this shy dog time to adapt. Dot is guessed to be 4 years old Miniature Poodle. She is an adorable pup who loves to play and prance about. She can be a bit shy at first but is quickly learning that humans are good for lots of cuddles. She is currently being fostered with one of our dog trainers that specializes and rehabilitates timid, shy dogs. She is the perfect size for snuggling and her eyes will melt your heart! Her foster mom thinks she would do better in a quiet home with adults or older children to work with her. Another confident dog could be helpful, but not necessary. Her foster mom has an amazing rehabilitation protocol to help these scared dogs and is working with her on potty training, socializing with dogs and humans, kennel training, doggie door training and if time permits, even leash and car training. She also has an amazing group of volunteers that meet twice a week to help socialize all the scared foster dogs in her care. There are lots of other dogs at her foster moms house so we know she is dog friendly. Her foster doesn't have any cats but thinks she would be fine with them if introduced slowly and properly. She will need an adopter, who will give her love and patience. Please consider this adorable girl as a part of your family. She deserves all the kindness and will give you a lifetime of affection. The shy dogs become the most loyal dogs, who adore their humans. Her foster mom is located in Fort Collins Colorado and wants to find a patient adopter, who has experience with handling and rehabilitating shy dogs, or who is willing to help him continue gaining confidence by taking one of Jodi's foundation classes in person or via zoom. This class is NOT basic obedience, but instead, is designed for rescue dogs and teaches the adopter how to work to build the dogs confidence and overcome any trauma the dog may have experienced. This training would definitely help the family and this sweet guy adjust to their new life together quicker. She provides a discount on training.

Hello there, I'm Baby. I'm a senior but don't let that fool you, I've still got a lot of love to give. I'm a bit shy at first, but with a little patience, I'll be your loyal friend. I get along well with other dogs, so if you have a furry friend already, we can be a happy pack together. I must confess, I'm a bit sensitive when it comes to bodily handling, so I need someone who can understand that. Despite my quirks, I promise to be a gentle and loving companion. Consider opening your heart and home to me. I'm ready to fill your life with love and loyalty.
