Meet Zucchini!  If you’re looking for a loyal best friend with the most stunning blue eyes you’ve ever seen, Zucchini might just be your perfect match! Zucchini is a 1-year-old Rhodesian Ridgeback mix weighing about 60 pounds. He’s playful, energetic, and always ready for an adventure, whether that’s a long walk, a game in the yard, or curling up for cuddle time after a fun day. He’s a fast learner who loves treats, making training both rewarding and fun. Zucchini gets along well with other dogs, is great with kids, and walks beautifully on a leash. He’s crate trained and is making great progress with house training. While we’re not sure how he does with cats, he’s shown so many wonderful qualities in foster care. Like many rescue dogs, Zucchini is still building confidence. He can be fearful of some men and experiences some separation anxiety, so he’ll thrive with a patient, experienced owner who understands that trust takes time. Once he feels safe, his affectionate, goofy, and loving personality shines through. If you’re willing to give Zucchini the patience and love he deserves, you’ll gain an incredibly loyal companion who will reward you with endless cuddles, happy tail wags, and unconditional love. We know his perfect family is out there, and we can’t wait for them to meet this special boy.  Put in an application at eapl.com His adoption fee is $375  October 5, 2026, 11:40 pm

Story
Haaland got a very hands-on start to life. This adorable 4-month-old puppy was raised as a bottle baby, so being loved and cared for by people is all he's ever known. His parents are unknown, but Haaland may be a Rhodesian Ridgeback mix. He has a gorgeous, shiny chocolate coat with a distinctive darker ridge running down his back. Haaland is one of those puppies who always seems to be happy. He's constantly smiling, loves other dogs, and grew up surrounded by cats and even tiny kittens. He's a sweet, social, happy boy who is ready to finish growing up with a family of his own. Good fit: someone looking for a happy, social puppy who loves other animals and has been raised around both dogs and cats from the very beginning. Adoption process: All adoptions are completed prior to transport. Dogs are picked up at designated transport locations. If an adoption doesn’t work out (rare, but life happens), I always take my dogs back. Location: Oklahoma (available to approved out-of-state adopters via transport) Health: Vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed, and on preventatives. Haaland is currently too young/small to be neutered. Adoption fee: $500 (includes transport + vetting) Bonus: Each adoption includes a 30-minute phone consultation with a professional trainer Transport routes: WA, OR, ID, MT, UT, WY, CO, MN, WI, IA, IL, IN, OH, PA, MD, NY, NJ Think you might be a good fit?

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.

Story
Camila, DNA results pending, is such a sweet, affectionate girl with so much love to give. More than anything, she wants to be close to her people. She’s a little Velcro pup who will happily follow you around, curl up next to you on the couch, and soak up every belly rub, ear scratch, and snuggle she can get. Camila is also excited about life and loves to have fun! She LOVES playing with all of her foster siblings and looks forward to her daily walks. She’s incredibly inquisitive and enjoys exploring new places and investigating all the interesting sights, sounds, and smells around her. She may approach something unfamiliar with a little uncertainty at first, but it usually doesn’t take long before her curiosity takes over. Having other dogs around has been wonderful for Camila. She enjoys their companionship, loves having playmates, and benefits from watching them show her the ropes. But as much as she loves her dog friends, her favorite thing is still knowing her person is nearby. Camila is smart, eager to please, and very treat motivated, which makes training fun! She already knows sit and is working on down and stay. Sometimes her excitement gets the best of her and she wants to greet you with a jump, so her foster family is helping her learn that four paws on the floor is the better way to say hello. She’s also doing wonderfully with her home routine. Camila is potty trained, uses the dog door, and sleeps peacefully in her kennel all night until about 6 a.m. After a day of playing, walking, and exploring, she’s more than happy to settle onto the couch for some serious cuddle time. Camila is not reactive, but she may bark when she first sees someone she doesn’t know. It’s simply her way of saying, “Give me a minute to figure out who you are.” Once she has a chance to check you out and realizes everything is okay, she quickly comes in for affection. Every day, Camila is learning more, gaining confidence, and discovering that the world can be a pretty wonderful place. She has such a gentle, loving spirit and is looking for a family who will continue helping her experience all the good things life has to offer. If you’re looking for a playful companion, walking buddy, sweet little shadow, and champion snuggler whose whole world lights up when she feels loved, Camila might just be your girl.  ##2819953##

Rufus is a strikingly handsome chocolate-colored dog with a sleek, low-shedding coat and captivating honey eyes.  He was born on 9/29/18 and about 60 pounds. He is a gentle soul and tender-hearted love bug at his core.   He's an active dog who would do best as a solo dog in the household. No cats please. He knows basic commands like sit, stay, and lay down, and rides well in the car. While his leash manners are usually excellent, he can get overly excited and pull if he spots a bunny or squirrel.  He's an adventurous pup who would make an amazing hiking, running, or biking companion for an active family or individual.   Rufus has undergone extensive training, and his new family can take advantage of a free session to learn the best techniques for managing his energy. He's loyal, loving, and ready to find his forever home. Visit  eapl.com  to fill out an adoption application - Rufus' Sponsored Adoption Fee is $75.  October 5, 2026, 11:40 pm

Story
Meet Spice: Confident • Adventurous • Affectionate • Cuddly pup!  At 4 months old, Spice is a beautiful, confident, curious puppy with a big personality and an adventurous spirit. She is smart, eager to learn, affectionate, and already showing signs that she will grow into a very loyal companion. Spice is expected to be a big girl, likely around 50–60 pounds when fully grown. Spice loves being outside, exploring the backyard, learning to play fetch, finding the perfect stick to chew on, or playing in the garden hose or sprinkler. She LOVES the water; attacking the water from the hose and the sprinklers, jumping in and out of the pool, doesn't care about the rain, or sticking her head in shower. She is also a great little walking companion and doesn’t pull much on leash. She has an excellent sniffer and loves taking her time investigating all the interesting sights and smells around her. Spice is a confident girl who isn’t easily bothered by everyday noises and activity, including the vacuum, lawn mower, leaf blower, hair dryer, or kids riding by on bikes and electric scooters. She does good other dogs, will do best with slow introductions, and has benefited from having canine foster siblings who help teach her appropriate play and puppy manners. Because Spice can be enthusiastic and physical when she plays, canine companions her size or larger will be the best match. She will be perfectly happy as the only dog in the home with plenty of attention, exercise, toys, and enrichment, and love being the spoiled one. Spice is pretty much potty trained and uses the doggie door when she needs to go. She is not a fan of a kennel; she loves being close to her person and sleeps through the night at your feet.  Like any growing puppy, Spice is still learning her manners. She is working on jumping up, mouthiness, boundaries, sit, down, and place. She is teething and does best when she has plenty of appropriate chew toys available. Continued training, consistency, and positive reinforcement will be important as she grows into a large adult dog. Until she has more training under her belt, Spice will be most successful in a home without small children. And did we mention how gorgeous she is? Spice has an incredibly soft red, brown, and copper coat that is just as striking as her personality. She is funny, adventurous, loving, loyal, and full of potential—and she is looking for a family ready to give her the structure, activity, training, and affection she needs to become an amazing adult dog. ##2831844##
