Story
Meet Honey & Hazel! These two adorable little ladies are a bonded pair looking for their forever home together.
Honey and Hazel are both 3 year old, 15 and 14 pound Pug / Chihuahua mixes. (Although Honey looks a bit more like a Puggle, while Hazel looks more like a Chihuahua/Pug mix). These two are sisters in the sense that they live together and always have, but we think they may actually be related sisters.
Honey and Hazel were surrendered to our partner shelter in New Mexico when their owner was no longer able to care for them due to changes in her life. Their previous owner told the shelter that these girls are bonded and have been together since they were puppies. Knowing that, we simply could not imagine separating them. They have spent their entire lives together, and we believe they deserve to start this next chapter side by side.
They are both wonderful with other dogs, too, so they are happy to have a home with another dog friend in addition to each other.
From Honey and Hazel's foster:

"These girls are soooooo sweet and fun and so easy to care for!! Honey is the immediate socialite. She's a little potato loaf of love and joy and loves a good snuggle and play, especially when on little adventures. She has a classic pug personality.
Hazel starts off a bit more shy, but after day 1 her personality came right out and she is so silly and sweet too! She LOVES cuddles and kisses. She is so loving.
They are both potty trained!
Both dogs are great with the whole family, from my 8 yo to my tall husband. They are emotionally well-regulated as a duo and are very comfortable with going into their crate. They have not yet tried to jump on furniture (Honey may be too pudgy for that anyway and Hazel prefers to stick with her sis). They gladly rest in their crate on their own when they want to lay down. While they have a lot of zeal for life, they are also well-suited for indoor/small space living. They are my little shadows in the house during chores and can also easily chill.
They are a very sweet and gentle pair who would make a great companion duo for someone. I’ll send more pictures over the next few days."

We know that adopting two dogs might sound like twice the work, but with Honey and Hazel, we really think two can be easier than one! They already have each other for companionship, playtime, and comfort. They keep each other company when you're busy, and they come with twice the love and twice the adorable Pug-like faces!
These sweet girls have a ticket to Colorado and are ready for a fresh start. They have already lost the home they've known their entire lives, and we are determined to make sure they don't have to lose each other, too.
Honey and Hazel are looking for a loving home where they can stay together forever. If you've ever considered adopting two dogs, this might be the perfect pair to prove that two really can be easier than one!
Farfel's Rescue and our New Mexico rescue partners would love to see Honey and Hazel in a home with someone who works from home or is retired. 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 feel that an excellent placement for Honey and Hazel is in a home where they'll get consistent stimulation, exercise and of course, nothing but 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 training choice. Farfel's is happy to provide a list of both in-person and virtual positive reinforcement / force- free trainers in your area.
Honey and Hazel are both up to date on their vaccinations, have been fully vetted, are in excellent health, heart worm negative, and have been spayed.
Applications are currently being accepted for our wonderful pair. If interested in these gorgeous, silly and very cuddly best friends, 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, 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.
