Scooby is a very loving and energetic dog. He loves to go on walks and runs. He needs to due to his energy level. He is 4 years old this April. We adopted him from a foster. Unfortunately a lot has happened and I am not able to give him the attention he deserves. My work schedule has changed along with health issues. No one else is willing or able to care for Scooby. He needs a loving person who can takes him on adventures with them. He is very loyal. His only bad behavior is getting on the counter if you leave food out, sometimes he will get in the trash. He will ask you to go out. He does run from you, so he needs to be on a leash and have a 6 to 8 foot fence. He will jump it. He has been raised with kids, dogs and cats. He gets along with all of them. You will fall in love with him right away. He is so loving.

My foster family calls me "sweet shelly" because I have a great attitude! Shelly is great on the leash. She does not pull when you are taking her for walks. She stays by your side when you are on a walk. She would do best with an active family that likes walks and adventures! Shelly sleeps in her crate at night and does not make a peep. Shelly has been potty trained in the past. She needed a couple of days to remember where to potty but she is now completely going potty outside. Shelly will let you know when she needs to go by crying and spinning in circles. Shelly knows "sit" and "come here." Shelly is a smart girl and picks up on things quickly. She is very loyal, loving, and enjoys attention. Shelly will follow you where you go to make sure she does not miss out on the fun. She wants to be around her people. Her foster family can tell she has lived in a house previously. Shelly is great with other dogs and meeting new people. Shelly could be the only dog in the home or with other dogs. She settled into her foster home fast. ##2008437##

Mojo, an around-6-year old, 50 lb Rhodesian Ridgeback / Lab mix, is a great example of why people love the beauty and sweetness of mixed breed dogs. This breed mix is in the opinion of Texas veterinarians. Farfel's doesn't do DNA testing and therefore can't swear to it.. All we know for certain is that this sweet as can be guy is absolutely irresistible! Can you imagine a dog being safer at an overcrowded high-kill shelter than with his previous owner? Well, that was Mojo's life. This kind and loving guy had an evil owner who enjoyed watching him suffer. He was left chained up just outside the kitchen window so his owner could watch him each day him slowly dying. Mojo was never fed or given water. The only hydration he received was from the rain that accumulated in filthy puddles in the yard. No matter how this starving dog whimpered and cried, he never received food and was on too short a chain to move and fend for himself. For month after painful month, Mojo was forced to lay on hard cement with no shade or roof. He stayed outside, attached to his heavy chain in the heat of the Texas summer, and the cold of winter. Mojo's body was slowly giving up, and he no longer had the energy to stand. Neighbors started noticing Mojo, unable to move in the filthy yard, and asked the owner to relinquish him to the authorities. Sadly he refused. He told the neighbors that the dog would be dead soon anyway. It wasn't until the authorities intervened that Mojo was thankfully confiscated and removed from the property. A cruelty case was filed against the previous owner. (The picture of skinny Mojo laying on the ground was taken by the neighbor and given to the police). Even though the shelter was nursing Mojo back to health, with abuse cases coming into the shelter every day, Mojo was placed on the euthanasia list due to lack of space. This brave boy has fought so hard to live for so long that Farfel's Rescue just couldn't turn our backs on him. We spoke up to save Mojo's life and he's now safe and sound and has made his way to Colorado. Mojo now sleeps in his foster moms bed at night, and is happier than ever, and hoping to find his forever home soon. Notes from Mojo's Texas foster, and his Colorado foster: * * * * From Texas foster: "The first time I met Mojo at the shelter, we weren't allowed to video or take pictures because he was a cruelty case still pending, however, we couldn't help falling deeply in love the minute we met him. Poor Mojo wagged and loved us up from the very first moment. Our hearts broke because he's such a sweet boy who is sooo skinny and still so hungry. Mojo was a staff favorite and whenever the employees or volunteers were at the shelter, they took this sweetie from his tiny cage, brought him to the office and loved him up! I then took him home to foster and what a good boy. He was so relieved to be in a home that he fell asleep as soon as we got home. Once he started warming up and realizing he was safe, he showed just how much personality he has!!" From Mojo's Colorado foster: "Oh Mojo is a hoot! He is so happy and friendly and social, and you wouldn't even know he's 6 years old, because he acts like he's maybe 2 or 3! He LOVES toys and playing. This boy never got to be a real dog until now, so he is living it up. He is very active and very playful. He would do great with an active adopter who has time to train him some basic skills. He is very cuddly when he does settle down, and sleeps in bed with me. While he is good with dogs off leash and in the home, he has some on leash sensitivity where he barks if he sees another dog. I think he just doesn't know how to contain his excitement. He responds very well to a treat distraction, and is VERY VERY VERY food motivated! He met two kids on a walk yesterday, they were 7 & 9 and he was so sweet with them. He would do well in a home with kids, as long as they know he is not so gentle when taking treats from your hand! He was denied food for a long time, so he inhales it when he gets it! He is potty trained!! " * * * * Our wonderful boy has a cute little smirk. When he was vetted, the vet felt that his smile is just a tad crooked, and that this was most likely caused by a kick to the face by his cruel previous "owner". (Nothing was needed, as he is not in pain and nothing is broken). Whatever it is, it gives him the cutest little smile. When Mojo was vetted and vaccinated, a heart worm test was given that came out positive...not at all surprising for a dog that lived under these awful conditions. Farfel's has already started Mojo's treatment, and will cover all costs for treatment to make this wonderful dog heart worm negative. The only thing we ask of our adopter is to keep Mojo from being too active (a great bonding time) while he goes through the treatment process which consists of several vet visits with injections over a period of sixty days. Farfel's has never had a dog treated for heart worm that didn't ultimately result in a negative heart worm outcome. Mojo is not yet neutered, but we do cover the full cost of his neuter at our vet. (Neuter is required to finalize any adoption). Mojo is available for adoption now.

Sweet old lady who just wants to cuddle and relax. Doesn’t need walks, prefers to be indoors. Great with kids, but particular about dogs.

Hoping to find a compassionate home for our vizsla, Miles. We are willing to pay for behavioral training. Miles’ energy, intelligence & emotional depth make him a great companion. Miles has a special bond with our other dog, Sally, and we love him dearly. But, we face a difficult reality. Miles has a history of aggression primarily stemming from resource guarding. He has bitten my male partner on several occasions. In response, we've engaged behavioral specialists and pursued training & medication interventions. These efforts have brought marked improvements, but the arrival of our daughter means we can’t overlook the risks. We are committed to finding Miles a home where he can live happily and safely, away from young children, and with the space and structure he needs. He excels in company of well-socialized, medium to large dogs. We believe he would thrive in a place with ample outdoor space to explore and play. His ideal home would be with experienced dog handlers with no children.

Frosty was named after her frosty face. Found struggling to survive on the bad side of San Antonio Texas. She made an attempt to get help from all surrounding homes near the street she slept and not one person gave her a chance. That was until one of our Texas fosters came across her. She was so hungry she had to be given a slow feeder for the first week of decompression. She is a very old soul extremely loving. She's an older girl in her golden years she not the type to take long extended walks but she will keep you company while you watch a movie. Frosty also enjoys the company of other submissive dogs but would also benefit from being the only pup in your life. Frosty is comfortable with children as well.  ##2006340##

Emma Black Mouth Cur/ American Pitbull Terrier Mix Female 1.5 years old 42 lbs. Meet Emma, a charming pooch full of love and affection! She's an incredibly sweet dog who adores humans of all kinds. Emma is a cuddle enthusiast, always seeking scratches and kisses. She's medium-energy, but equally content to spend the day lounging and recharging with naps. She's the perfect match for those seeking a young, calm and incredibly affectionate dog that adores snuggling, without the challenges of puppyhood. Emma's excitement is palpable—she showcases a happy wiggle butt when greeting you and flashes a toothy smile when she's thrilled. Outdoors, she unleashes her playful side with zoomies, but is also a fan of cozy cuddles and scratches. While she hasn't had extensive training, she's proficient on a leash and is fantastic on both walks and runs. She knows basic commands like “wait”, “sit” and “ok” and is fully house-trained and crate trained. Barking is a rare occurrence for her. Emma is very eager to be where you are, but understands when you need your space. She has great manners and is a tidy eater—no need to worry about any counter surfing with her! Emma prefers the company of humans so she would like to be your one and only pet. But her abundant personality and affection mean that having her as the only pet in your home will be incredibly fulfilling – you won't feel the need for another furry companion! It's important for her to be in a home where she can receive the individual attention and training she needs to manage her interactions with other pets. She's a hit with kids over 8, but her playful energy might be a bit much for younger ones—she's just so excited to play that she might accidentally knock them over! She's also very friendly with new people and just needs a bit of help in managing her excitement. Emma is a playful soul and would adore chew toys, enjoys chasing balls/frisbees, relishes tug-of-war and adores treat puzzles. She shows enthusiasm for food and is trainable, although she's in the process of learning and could benefit from more practice. Emma, the loving canine, seeks a supportive and attentive family to assist her in blooming and experiencing her best life as an adored pet. She looks forward to relishing walks and hikes, embracing the spirit of a true Colorado dog!
