Story
Ophelia is a very sweet girl, but there are 2 things influencing our difficult decision to try to re-home her: 1-When we downsized last fall we no longer have a big fenced yard and she's simply too big and strong (and headstrong) for my wife to safely walk her and my wife has some health issues such that we simply don't want to risk her doing dog walks and getting pulled down. 2-Multiple people in the extended family don't completely trust her around our toddler granddaughter. She's never bitten, but she has sort of snarled inappropriately. She gets along totally fine with adults and larger kids (like our elementary school age grandkids) and other dogs and it's a bit of a mystery to us because every dog we've ever had previously knows how to deal with toddlers and be patient with 'human puppies'. We're erring on the side of caution and respecting the wishes of the toddler's mother.

Story
***PLEASE NOTE*** This is just a courtesy post: Freyja is NOT with Farfel’s Farm & Rescue. Please do not inquire or apply through Farfel’s — this is a courtesy post to help Freyja’s owner find her a new home. For all inquiries, please contact Sara at sara406368@gmail.com OR (970) 658-0470. Her rehoming fee is $150 through her current owner. Freyja is a gorgeous 6-year-old, 50 lb Ridgeback / Shepherd mix with a heart as big as her ears. She’s incredibly sweet, deeply affectionate, and will gladly trade belly rubs for unconditional love. A world-class cuddler, Freyja loves nothing more than curling up beside you on the couch after a fun day of sniffing and exploring the outdoors. This smart, soulful girl adores people and warms up quickly with a gentle, patient approach. Once she trusts you (which doesn’t take long!), she’s all about love, loyalty, and snuggles. She’s house-trained, healthy, and happiest when she has room to run and a cozy spot to nap beside her human. Freyja’s Perfect Home: Freyja thrives in a calm, consistent environment and would do best as the only dog in the home. She can be nervous around other dogs and needs an experienced, confident owner who can help her continue to thrive using positive reinforcement. She would do well in an adult home or one with older children (12+). She’s done well with cats she’s lived with, though she may show prey drive with unfamiliar ones. Freyja is used to sleeping near her person — either in an open crate or near the bed — and finds comfort in being close to those she trusts. She’s got a big personality and an even bigger heart, and with the right home, she’ll be the most loyal and loving companion you could ever ask for. Why She’s Being Rehomed: This decision comes with a heavy heart. Freyja is deeply loved, and if circumstances hadn’t changed, she would never be leaving her current home. After moving in with a partner and their dogs, the multi-dog environment has proven too stressful for her. She deserves a peaceful, loving forever home where she can be the center of attention. If you’re a kind, experienced dog lover looking for a sweet, sensitive girl to share your life with, Freyja may be your perfect match. She has so much love to give — she just needs the right person to give it to. Please share to help Freyja find her forever home! She’s spayed, microchipped, and fully up to date on her vaccinations. Rehoming Fee: $150 (to ensure a committed adopter) Location: Boulder, CO Contact: Sara at sara406368@gmail.com OR (970) 658-0470 Disclaimer: The dog you are interested in is a courtesy post. Farfel's Farm & Rescue often helps dogs outside our organization to find their forever homes, and these are called "courtesy posts.” By courtesy posting pets from owners and other rescues, we offer our website as a resource to help their pet gain extra exposure. The pet’s bio comes directly from the owner or rescue, and we expect them to provide accurate information, to the best of their knowledge. Farfel's Farm & Rescue in most cases has not met or evaluated these dogs, so no information about a courtesy post dog is guaranteed. We cannot accept responsibility for any injury or damages to any person or property caused by any courtesy post animals. Courtesy post pets are the sole responsibility of the owner and the adopter. In addition, Farfel's Farm & Rescue cannot take these pets in if the courtesy post adoption does not work out.

These pups are in Aurora, Colorado too!

Story
  Animal Rescue of the Rockies believes every pet should find a wonderful and caring home. To ensure Whiskey Glasses finds the best possible home, we ask you fill out our adoption application so we can learn more about you and your household. We review each application in the order submitted and will contact you within 48 hours  (please check your spam folder for our emails) .   Whiskey Glasses | 4–5-Month-Old Lab/Catahoula Mix | Brown-Eyed Goofball with a Snuggly Side At 4–5 months old and about 20 pounds, Whiskey Glasses is a handsome brown Lab/Catahoula mix with a playful spirit and a surprisingly cuddly streak. He’s equal parts adventure buddy and under-the-covers snuggler — he happily burrows in and shows his belly for rubs when he’s feeling cozy. Whiskey is making steady progress with house training but isn’t quite there yet. He doesn’t signal when he needs to go out, so consistency and routine will help him continue improving. Crate training is going well overall — he may need a little encouragement to go in and can whine at first, but he settles down and sleeps through the night. He has also been left home (with another dog) for short periods and does okay after a little initial fussing. He walks fairly well on leash, though he can pull, and he has medium-to-high energy typical of a young pup. He’d thrive with regular walks, playtime, or even hikes, and then he’s happy to relax once he’s gotten his exercise. He loves toys, bones, car rides — and unfortunately has a particular fondness for shoes if they’re left unattended. He’s motivated by food, toys, and affection, and he’s responding well to structure and boundaries in his foster home. Whiskey has had positive interactions with dogs, cats (he wants to play), and children of all ages. He’s friendly, submissive, playful, and very sweet. Like many puppies, he’s still working through play biting, jumping, and some mischievous behavior when left alone, so continued training and supervision will be important. His ideal home would include another dog to play with and help show him the ropes. With guidance, exercise, and love, Whiskey is going to grow into a loyal, fun-loving companion.   If you and the dog are a good match then we'll connect you with our dog's foster parents to chat more in-depth. If both you and the foster agree that the dog is a good fit then a meet and greet is scheduled. We require applicants' dogs to meet ours to ensure they get along. We'll ask you to read and sign our adoption agreement and pay the adoption fee to complete the adoption when it comes time. Our adoption fees help cover the costs of saving more lives!  A home visit will be scheduled within one week of your new pet going home with you.  The adoption fee for this pet is $475 (includes a $50 refundable puppy training deposit). Our adoption fee covers the following: Spay/neuter Microchip DAPP vaccinations as age-appropriate for the dog.  Rabies vaccinations as age-appropriate for the dog. Adopters shall be responsible for all vaccinations after adoption. Please fill out an adoption application by clicking  here . Please give us 48 hours to review your application and respond to you. (Remember to check your spam folder for our emails!) We want our pets to go to a lifelong new home, so thank you for your patience during the adoption process! Please email dogs@arrcolorado.org for more information, as we can't accept calls.PLEASE NOTE:  The breed listed is the information we've received from the shelter.  Shelters usually guess at the breed, so there is no guarantee, as we don't DNA test our foster pets.  Here is some interesting info on breed identification:  https://arrcolorado.org/category/puppy-dog-tips/ Our adoption process is: 1. Fill out our Adoption Application online.  We'll contact you within 48 hours to answer any questions you may have about the pet. 2. If the pet looks like a great match, we'll schedule a meet and greet and ask you to fill out our online Adoption Agreement if you'd like to proceed with adopting.  Once you've completed the Adoption Agreement and pay the pet's Adoption Fee, you can arrange to pick up your new furry family member!
