Story
Meet Maple Abandoned with His Family—Now This Tiny Boy Is Ready to Grow Up Surrounded by Love ❤️ Breed: Pug / Chihuahua Mix Gender: Male | DOB: April 12, 2026 | Current Weight/Size: 10 lbs (Very Small Puppy) Good With: Dogs ✔️ | Cats: Unknown | Kids ✔️ with careful supervision due to his tiny size Medical: ✔️ Neuter Pending (Age-Appropriate) | ✔️ Vaccinations Current for Age | ✔️ Microchipped Location: Los Angeles, California Transportation: Ozzie and Friends Rescue provides safe transportation to approved adopters throughout the United States. ❤️ Personality, Breed Information & Maple's Story Maple's little life didn't have the beginning he deserved. He was found abandoned alongside his mother and siblings, leaving the entire little family without the security of a home or people to care for them. At only a few pounds, Maple was especially vulnerable and completely dependent on his mom for protection. Thankfully, the family was discovered and brought to safety. For Maple, everything began to change. He finally had regular meals, a warm and secure place to sleep, and people looking out for him. Today, Maple is getting the chance to experience puppyhood the way he always should have. He's a sweet, curious little boy who loves exploring, playing, and discovering something new every day. He enjoys affection and attention and is learning just how wonderful life can be when you're safe and loved. As a Pug / Chihuahua Mix, Maple is expected to develop into an affectionate, playful, and devoted companion. Pugs are known for their social, charming, and wonderfully silly personalities, while Chihuahuas are intelligent, alert, and deeply loyal to their families. Maple may be tiny, but there's plenty of personality packed into his little body. At only 3 pounds, Maple requires gentle handling and careful supervision. Interactions with young children and significantly larger dogs should always be supervised to prevent accidental injury. Maple would thrive in a home that offers: Plenty of love and companionship Gentle handling while he's still tiny Positive reinforcement puppy training Patient and consistent house-training Safe socialization with people and other animals Age-appropriate play and mental enrichment A consistent daily routine A secure indoor home where he's treated as part of the family A lifetime of love, patience, and commitment Maple's story may have started with abandonment, but his future can be completely different. Training, Adjustment & What to Expect Maple is still very much a puppy and will depend on his new family to teach him everything he needs to know about becoming a confident, well-mannered adult dog. His adopter should expect normal puppy behaviors, including chewing, teething, house-training accidents, playful bursts of energy, and plenty of curiosity. Please remember the 3-3-3 Rule: 3 Days to begin decompressing and feeling safe 3 Weeks to start understanding his new household routine 3 Months to become comfortable and truly feel at home Maple will benefit tremendously from early positive experiences and gentle, reward-based training. Continued socialization with different people, environments, sounds, and appropriately matched animals will help him develop confidence as he grows. Owner Responsibilities & Veterinary Care Adopting Maple means making a commitment that will last throughout his entire life. Puppies require ongoing veterinary care, training, socialization, proper nutrition, exercise, and companionship. Maple's adopter will be responsible for: Completing his puppy vaccination schedule Neutering when age-appropriate Routine veterinary wellness examinations Flea, tick, heartworm, and parasite prevention as recommended by a veterinarian A nutritionally complete puppy diet appropriate for his size Routine dental care Continued training and socialization Maintaining a healthy weight throughout adulthood Providing age-appropriate physical exercise and mental enrichment Because Maple currently weighs only 3 pounds, extra care should be taken while he is small. His veterinarian can provide guidance regarding feeding, safe exercise, and other considerations as he continues to grow. Adoption Information If you are interested in adopting Maple, please complete an adoption application at: https://www.ozzieandfriendsrescue.org/adoptions Thank you for considering adoption through Ozzie and Friends Rescue, a Los Angeles-based nonprofit dedicated to giving dogs a second chance at a loving home. Every application is carefully reviewed to help ensure the best possible match between each dog and their future family. Although we are based in Los Angeles, California, we proudly coordinate safe and reliable transportation for approved adopters throughout the United States. Maple was once a tiny puppy in an abandoned family with an uncertain future. Now he's safe and ready for the life he should have had from the beginning—one filled with toys, adventures, warm beds, and a family that will make sure he is never left behind again. ❤️October 7, 2026, 10:25 am

Story
Meet Goyo Chill, Loving, and Friendly With Everyone—Even Cats! Breed: Pug Chi Mix Gender: Male | Age: 9/28/2024 Weight: 21 lbs (small) Good With: Dogs ✔️ | Kids ✔️ | Cats ✔️ Personality: ❤️ Loving | Very Chill | Affectionate | Friendly Medical: ✔️ Neutered | ✔️ Vaccinations Up to Date Location: Los Angeles, California Transportation: Ozzie and Friends Rescue coordinates safe transportation for approved adopters throughout the United States. ❤️ Personality & Breed Information Goyo is an adorable Chug mix weighing approximately 21 pounds, and his personality is just as lovable as his little face. He's a very chill, loving boy who is friendly with everyone—including dogs, children, and cats. Goyo has an easygoing nature and enjoys companionship without needing to make everything complicated. He's the kind of little guy who can happily be part of everyday family life—hanging out with his people, enjoying a leisurely walk, getting some affection, and then settling in nearby to relax. As a Chug mix, Goyo may share some of the breed's typical qualities. Chugs are often affectionate, social, playful, charming, and strongly attached to their people. Many are happiest simply being included in whatever their family is doing. Goyo's naturally relaxed personality makes him especially endearing. He doesn't need nonstop excitement to be happy. Love, companionship, comfortable places to relax, and people who enjoy having him around are much more his style. Training, Adjustment & What to Expect Although Goyo is already an adult, every dog needs time to understand a new home and routine. Rescue dogs may arrive with basic training at best, so his adopter should be prepared to continue reinforcing house manners, leash skills, basic commands, recall, and household boundaries as needed. His naturally friendly personality is a wonderful foundation, but consistency and positive-reinforcement training will still help him understand what his new family expects from him. The 3-3-3 Rule 3 Days to decompress and begin feeling safe 3 Weeks to understand his new household routine 3 Months to fully settle in, build trust, and feel at home These are guidelines rather than deadlines. Even a friendly, easygoing dog like Goyo deserves time to settle in at his own pace. Owner Responsibilities & Veterinary Care Goyo is neutered and up to date on his vaccinations. His future family should continue routine veterinary examinations, recommended vaccine boosters, parasite prevention, dental care, nail care, quality nutrition, healthy weight management, appropriate exercise, and veterinary treatment whenever necessary. Because Goyo is a French Bulldog mix, his family should also be mindful of possible brachycephalic, or short-nosed, characteristics. Dogs with shorter airways can be more sensitive to heat, humidity, and strenuous exercise. Goyo should have access to cool indoor spaces and fresh water during warm weather, and his family should watch for excessive panting, overheating, or breathing difficulties. Keeping him at a healthy weight is also particularly important. Adoption Information If you are interested in adopting Goyo, please complete an adoption application: https://www.ozzieandfriendsrescue.org/adoptions Ozzie and Friends Rescue is a Los Angeles-based nonprofit dedicated to rescuing dogs in need and helping them find safe, loving forever homes. While based in Southern California, we coordinate safe transportation for approved adopters throughout the United States. Our goal is to give every dog the best possible chance of finding the right family and a home where they will be loved and cared for throughout their life. Adopting Goyo means committing to his veterinary care, safety, companionship, training, and happiness for the rest of his life. Goyo is friendly with dogs, kids, and cats, but what he really seems to love is simply being close to his people. He's chill, affectionate, and ready for a comfortable life filled with love. Give Goyo a cozy place beside you, and he may decide that's exactly where he belongs.October 7, 2026, 10:25 am

Jack is a 3-4 year old Pug weighing about 16lbs.  Jack came from Mexico where he was brought to a shelter in pretty bad condition.  His eye was damaged and needed to be removed immediately.  We don't know what happened to his eye, but he has since fully recovered and is happy, healthy little guy!   Jack gets along well with all people and is an amazing little guy.  He is very snuggly and loves to follow his foster Momma around the house.  He gets along with other dogs but since he is a sassy little Pug a proper introduction is usually necessary.  He does well at the dog park and LOVES chasing his tennis balls and playing fetch. He is great on walks and a cute little snorty, happy Pug. If you are interested in adopting Jack, please fill out our adoption application at brighterdaysdogrescue.com ##2668187##

Story
** If you are interested in adopting Biscuit, please fill out our adoption application at http://farfels.com/farfels-rescue/adoption-form/ ** Biscuit is a 5 year old, 23 pound purebred Pug. Biscuit (AKA Sea Biscuit) was surrendered to the shelter in New Mexico because his owner lost their job and could no longer afford to feed and care for a dog. Despite loosing his home and all of the confusion, Biscuit has remained happy and friendly throughout the process! Biscuit now has a ticket to Colorado where he can find a forever family ready to give him the love that he deserves. Biscuit is great with other dogs, friendly with people, great with kids, and cat-friendly! He is potty trained as well, however will need to learn his new homes routine. We'd like to place Biscuit 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. Biscuit 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.

** If you are interested in adopting Milo, please fill out our adoption application at http://farfels.com/farfels-rescue/adoption-form/ ** Milo is a 1 year old, 14 pound Pug / Boston Terrier mix who is a DOLL! Milo is so happy, friendly, and just has a great personality! Milo was picked up as a stray and brought into a small shelter in rural Texas, where he quickly made a LOT of friends! The staff loved him so much that they knew he had to get out of that shelter! We got a call and were of course so happy to help Milo! Milo is very sweet and friendly. He really enjoys other dogs and would love a dog buddy in his forever home, but we think he would be okay as an only dog as well. We'd like to place Milo in a home where he'll get consistent stimulation, exercise and love.

Story
Whenever a sweet and engaging rescue dog gets into an urgent situation, Farfel's rescuers like to help. We find that many of the dogs that are relinquished to a high-kill shelter or found as strays are very loving with excellent temperaments. They ultimately, with patience and love, make sweet and bonded family companions. Sprinkles is one of these dogs that ended up in a scary shelter through no fault of her own. Sprinkles, upon her arrival at the shelter was described by personnel as very sweet, although frightened in the shelter environment. Shortly after, Sprinkles was reported as becoming more comfortable, engaging and even silly with her rescuer. Shelter personnel ooh'd and aah'd over this beautiful Puggle mix and described her as not only beautiful, but soo sweet! The shelter veterinarian identified Sprinkles as a 1 year old, 21 lb Pug / Beagle mix. We can't swear to the accuracy of this breed (although we can definitely see it!)...what we can speak to is her sweetness and her value as a wonderful companion for a dog-loving Colorado family. Sprinkles, (once comfortable in her environment) is very puppyish in her enthusiasm for all people that are kind to her. She has a love of life and a positive attitude that touches the heart. After all, his very deserving girl has never had a loving or nurturing family to call her own. She has been a victim of circumstance in her life. Farfel's Rescue is committed to changing this trajectory for this awesome dog that has so much to offer a committed family. Rescue dogs can initially be a bit shy or nervous. This is expected in light of the very long transports and stresses of rehoming. When an adopting family is sensitive to the challenges of change and acclimation for these dogs, the transition is far easier. A home with a very loving and nurturing family that understands that blossoming takes time is perfect for our wonderful Sprinkles. Socialization, pure love and belly rubs are a gift to a dog that is undergoing a life change. If Sprinkles is initially given the time, she will absolutely shine. Farfel's Rescue has found over time and thousands of rescue dogs that the families that attend virtual or in-person training class with one of our approved positive reinforcement / force free trainers keep their dogs for life, except in very unusual circumstances. Dogs that do not get proper training and socialization have a much higher risk of developing behavioral problems. There is a bonding that occurs between a dog and their family through the training process that can't be duplicated. It also teaches behaviors that enable a pup to go out into the world with excellent manners that create a respectful relationship between dogs and their humans. It is for all these reasons that Farfel's is unwilling to adopt to a family that doesn't choose to participate in this training opportunity. Farfel's is happy to provide a list of approved virtual and in-person positive reinforcement / force-free trainers in your area. Sprinkles is such a great age and size. At 1 year old, she's a blank slate that is young enough to embrace new behavioral concepts in her life with many, many healthy and active years ahead. Sprinkles is also the perfect smaller size to accompany her family on fun adventures everywhere that a well-behaved smaller dog is welcome. We envision active, dog-crazy retirees for our sweet Sprinkles. She would respond so well to the love and attention that this group offers. She would also do well with a younger family that works from a home-based office to love her up periodically throughout the day. We feel that our Sprinkles is too sensitive a girl to spend long hours alone while her family works full-time outside of the home. Sprinkles has a stunning tan coat that is currently shelter-sad. Our girl will require a lifelong commitment to periodic baths / brushing and excellent nutrition. Current research is clear that the best diet for a dog is a natural, real food diet. This natural nutrition will cut down on vet visits as well as add years to a dog's life. Farfel's has had experience with Chi Diet (chidog.com). It saved the life of our dog and we wholeheartedly recommend it for yours. Sprinkles will be up to date on her vetting / vaccinations to be in line with our commitment to only adopting out healthy dogs. She has also been spayed to attain a future where dogs are never euthanized due to overpopulation in the canine population. Sprinkles can't wait to meet her new forever family! If interested in this very cuddly 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 Sprinkles 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.

Meet Maple Abandoned with His Family—Now This Tiny Boy Is Ready to Grow Up Surrounded by Love ❤️ Breed: Pug / Chihuahua Mix Gender: Male | DOB: April 12, 2026 | Current Weight/Size: 10 lbs (Very Small Puppy) Good With: Dogs ✔️ | Cats: Unknown | Kids ✔️ with careful supervision due to his tiny size Medical: ✔️ Neuter Pending (Age-Appropriate) | ✔️ Vaccinations Current for Age | ✔️ Microchipped Location: Los Angeles, California Transportation: Ozzie and Friends Rescue provides safe transportation to approved adopters throughout the United States. ❤️ Personality, Breed Information & Maple's Story Maple's little life didn't have the beginning he deserved. He was found abandoned alongside his mother and siblings, leaving the entire little family without the security of a home or people to care for them. At only a few pounds, Maple was especially vulnerable and completely dependent on his mom for protection. Thankfully, the family was discovered and brought to safety. For Maple, everything began to change. He finally had regular meals, a warm and secure place to sleep, and people looking out for him. Today, Maple is getting the chance to experience puppyhood the way he always should have. He's a sweet, curious little boy who loves exploring, playing, and discovering something new every day. He enjoys affection and attention and is learning just how wonderful life can be when you're safe and loved. As a Pug / Chihuahua Mix, Maple is expected to develop into an affectionate, playful, and devoted companion. Pugs are known for their social, charming, and wonderfully silly personalities, while Chihuahuas are intelligent, alert, and deeply loyal to their families. Maple may be tiny, but there's plenty of personality packed into his little body. At only 3 pounds, Maple requires gentle handling and careful supervision. Interactions with young children and significantly larger dogs should always be supervised to prevent accidental injury. Maple would thrive in a home that offers: Plenty of love and companionship Gentle handling while he's still tiny Positive reinforcement puppy training Patient and consistent house-training Safe socialization with people and other animals Age-appropriate play and mental enrichment A consistent daily routine A secure indoor home where he's treated as part of the family A lifetime of love, patience, and commitment Maple's story may have started with abandonment, but his future can be completely different. Training, Adjustment & What to Expect Maple is still very much a puppy and will depend on his new family to teach him everything he needs to know about becoming a confident, well-mannered adult dog. His adopter should expect normal puppy behaviors, including chewing, teething, house-training accidents, playful bursts of energy, and plenty of curiosity. Please remember the 3-3-3 Rule: 3 Days to begin decompressing and feeling safe 3 Weeks to start understanding his new household routine 3 Months to become comfortable and truly feel at home Maple will benefit tremendously from early positive experiences and gentle, reward-based training. Continued socialization with different people, environments, sounds, and appropriately matched animals will help him develop confidence as he grows. Owner Responsibilities & Veterinary Care Adopting Maple means making a commitment that will last throughout his entire life. Puppies require ongoing veterinary care, training, socialization, proper nutrition, exercise, and companionship. Maple's adopter will be responsible for: Completing his puppy vaccination schedule Neutering when age-appropriate Routine veterinary wellness examinations Flea, tick, heartworm, and parasite prevention as recommended by a veterinarian A nutritionally complete puppy diet appropriate for his size Routine dental care Continued training and socialization Maintaining a healthy weight throughout adulthood Providing age-appropriate physical exercise and mental enrichment Because Maple currently weighs only 3 pounds, extra care should be taken while he is small. His veterinarian can provide guidance regarding feeding, safe exercise, and other considerations as he continues to grow. Adoption Information If you are interested in adopting Maple, please complete an adoption application at: https://www.ozzieandfriendsrescue.org/adoptions Thank you for considering adoption through Ozzie and Friends Rescue, a Los Angeles-based nonprofit dedicated to giving dogs a second chance at a loving home.

Meet Goyo Chill, Loving, and Friendly With Everyone—Even Cats! Breed: Pug Chi Mix Gender: Male | Age: 9/28/2024 Weight: 21 lbs (small) Good With: Dogs ✔️ | Kids ✔️ | Cats ✔️ Personality: ❤️ Loving | Very Chill | Affectionate | Friendly Medical: ✔️ Neutered | ✔️ Vaccinations Up to Date Location: Los Angeles, California Transportation: Ozzie and Friends Rescue coordinates safe transportation for approved adopters throughout the United States. ❤️ Personality & Breed Information Goyo is an adorable Chug mix weighing approximately 21 pounds, and his personality is just as lovable as his little face. He's a very chill, loving boy who is friendly with everyone—including dogs, children, and cats. Goyo has an easygoing nature and enjoys companionship without needing to make everything complicated. He's the kind of little guy who can happily be part of everyday family life—hanging out with his people, enjoying a leisurely walk, getting some affection, and then settling in nearby to relax. As a Chug mix, Goyo may share some of the breed's typical qualities. Chugs are often affectionate, social, playful, charming, and strongly attached to their people. Many are happiest simply being included in whatever their family is doing. Goyo's naturally relaxed personality makes him especially endearing. He doesn't need nonstop excitement to be happy. Love, companionship, comfortable places to relax, and people who enjoy having him around are much more his style. Training, Adjustment & What to Expect Although Goyo is already an adult, every dog needs time to understand a new home and routine. Rescue dogs may arrive with basic training at best, so his adopter should be prepared to continue reinforcing house manners, leash skills, basic commands, recall, and household boundaries as needed. His naturally friendly personality is a wonderful foundation, but consistency and positive-reinforcement training will still help him understand what his new family expects from him. The 3-3-3 Rule 3 Days to decompress and begin feeling safe 3 Weeks to understand his new household routine 3 Months to fully settle in, build trust, and feel at home These are guidelines rather than deadlines. Even a friendly, easygoing dog like Goyo deserves time to settle in at his own pace. Owner Responsibilities & Veterinary Care Goyo is neutered and up to date on his vaccinations. His future family should continue routine veterinary examinations, recommended vaccine boosters, parasite prevention, dental care, nail care, quality nutrition, healthy weight management, appropriate exercise, and veterinary treatment whenever necessary. Because Goyo is a French Bulldog mix, his family should also be mindful of possible brachycephalic, or short-nosed, characteristics. Dogs with shorter airways can be more sensitive to heat, humidity, and strenuous exercise. Goyo should have access to cool indoor spaces and fresh water during warm weather, and his family should watch for excessive panting, overheating, or breathing difficulties.

Story
** If you are interested in adopting Milo, please fill out our adoption application at http://farfels.com/farfels-rescue/adoption-form/ ** Milo is a 1 year old, 14 pound Pug / Boston Terrier mix who is a DOLL! Milo is so happy, friendly, and just has a great personality! Milo was picked up as a stray and brought into a small shelter in rural Texas, where he quickly made a LOT of friends! The staff loved him so much that they knew he had to get out of that shelter! We got a call and were of course so happy to help Milo! Milo is very sweet and friendly. He really enjoys other dogs and would love a dog buddy in his forever home, but we think he would be okay as an only dog as well. We'd like to place Milo 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. Milo 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.

Story
Whenever a sweet and engaging rescue dog gets into an urgent situation, Farfel's rescuers like to help. We find that many of the dogs that are relinquished to a high-kill shelter or found as strays are very loving with excellent temperaments. They ultimately, with patience and love, make sweet and bonded family companions. Sprinkles is one of these dogs that ended up in a scary shelter through no fault of her own. Sprinkles, upon her arrival at the shelter was described by personnel as very sweet, although frightened in the shelter environment. Shortly after, Sprinkles was reported as becoming more comfortable, engaging and even silly with her rescuer. Shelter personnel ooh'd and aah'd over this beautiful Puggle mix and described her as not only beautiful, but soo sweet! The shelter veterinarian identified Sprinkles as a 1 year old, 21 lb Pug / Beagle mix. We can't swear to the accuracy of this breed (although we can definitely see it!)...what we can speak to is her sweetness and her value as a wonderful companion for a dog-loving Colorado family. Sprinkles, (once comfortable in her environment) is very puppyish in her enthusiasm for all people that are kind to her. She has a love of life and a positive attitude that touches the heart. After all, his very deserving girl has never had a loving or nurturing family to call her own. She has been a victim of circumstance in her life. Farfel's Rescue is committed to changing this trajectory for this awesome dog that has so much to offer a committed family. Rescue dogs can initially be a bit shy or nervous. This is expected in light of the very long transports and stresses of rehoming. When an adopting family is sensitive to the challenges of change and acclimation for these dogs, the transition is far easier. A home with a very loving and nurturing family that understands that blossoming takes time is perfect for our wonderful Sprinkles. Socialization, pure love and belly rubs are a gift to a dog that is undergoing a life change. If Sprinkles is initially given the time, she will absolutely shine. Farfel's Rescue has found over time and thousands of rescue dogs that the families that attend virtual or in-person training class with one of our approved positive reinforcement / force free trainers keep their dogs for life, except in very unusual circumstances. Dogs that do not get proper training and socialization have a much higher risk of developing behavioral problems. There is a bonding that occurs between a dog and their family through the training process that can't be duplicated. It also teaches behaviors that enable a pup to go out into the world with excellent manners that create a respectful relationship between dogs and their humans. It is for all these reasons that Farfel's is unwilling to adopt to a family that doesn't choose to participate in this training opportunity. Farfel's is happy to provide a list of approved virtual and in-person positive reinforcement / force-free trainers in your area. Sprinkles is such a great age and size. At 1 year old, she's a blank slate that is young enough to embrace new behavioral concepts in her life with many, many healthy and active years ahead. Sprinkles is also the perfect smaller size to accompany her family on fun adventures everywhere that a well-behaved smaller dog is welcome. We envision active, dog-crazy retirees for our sweet Sprinkles. She would respond so well to the love and attention that this group offers. She would also do well with a younger family that works from a home-based office to love her up periodically throughout the day. We feel that our Sprinkles is too sensitive a girl to spend long hours alone while her family works full-time outside of the home. Sprinkles has a stunning tan coat that is currently shelter-sad. Our girl will require a lifelong commitment to periodic baths / brushing and excellent nutrition. Current research is clear that the best diet for a dog is a natural, real food diet. This natural nutrition will cut down on vet visits as well as add years to a dog's life. Farfel's has had experience with Chi Diet (chidog.com). It saved the life of our dog and we wholeheartedly recommend it for yours. Sprinkles will be up to date on her vetting / vaccinations to be in line with our commitment to only adopting out healthy dogs. She has also been spayed to attain a future where dogs are never euthanized due to overpopulation in the canine population. Sprinkles can't wait to meet her new forever family! If interested in this very cuddly 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 Sprinkles please be sure to fill out our Farfel's Rescue adoption application found at the link above or at farfels.com.

Story
Little Johnny is a 10lb unique, adorable mutt.  We are guessing he is Dachshund/Chihuahua/Cattle Dog/Boston Terrier/Pug mix?  He has an adorably long body with short little legs and a squished little face.  We hope his forever family does a breed test on him because he is so cool! Johnny was dumped in a parking lot in Texas.  He was so confused and terrified the first week, that the person who found him said he wouldn't eat and was completely shut down.  We can't imagine what was going through his little mind.  He made his way to CO to prevent him from ending up in a shelter.  He has settled in here and is doing very well in his foster home.  Johnny's foster has fostered almost 100 dogs for us, and said he is the sweetest, most loving, and affectionate dog she has ever had.  Just like when he was dumped, he was terrified at first, but attached to his foster Momma pretty quickly.  He is definately a dog who bonds quickly and needs someone who can reciprocate the immense amount of unconditional love he has to give.  He gets along great with other dogs but doesn't seem interested in playing with them, yet(?).  He gets along amazingly well with cats and loves cats.  He would do great in a home with another cat as his best friend.  He also loves to play with cats.  Johnny gets along well with kiddos but since he is a nervous little guy we think older kiddos would make him most comfortable.  Johnny is just truly an amazing, affectionate, loving little guy, just looking for stability and security.
