Story
** If you are interested in adopting Jiggs, please fill out our adoption application at http://farfels.com/farfels-rescue/adoption-form/ **
Jiggs is a 1 year old, 6 pound Yorkie / Chihuahua mix. This happy little guy is full of love and is always ready to make a new friend, whether they have two legs or four.
Jiggs absolutely LOVES other dogs, so much so that when he was at the shelter in Texas, they roomed him in a kennel with 2 other stranger dogs. He would love a home with another playful pup, but he would also be thrilled to soak up all the attention as your one and only.
When it comes to people, Jiggs is as sweet as they come. He craves affection, loves being part of the action, and is happiest when he's getting pets, playing, or simply hanging out with his favorite humans. He is a very loving little guy!
From Jiggs' foster:
"Oh my gosh I am in love with this little sweetie!!! He settled in so well, immediately! He walks great on leash, LOVES to snuggle, and is just so so so sweet!!! So far I've only had him for 3 days, but he's only had 1 single accident on the first day, and he went right by the front door, so that was maybe my bad. I think he is potty trained!
I put him in a crate when I leave the house and he does great in it!
This little guy is happy to soak up affection and is just a total lover! He loves other dogs as well."
We'd like to place Jiggs in a home where he'll get consistent stimulation, exercise and love. A (virtual or in-person) positive reinforcement 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.
Jiggs is up to date on his vaccinations, has been fully vetted, is healthy, heartworm negative, and is 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.
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.
