Story
There's nothing quite like young dog energy and silliness...and then they put their beautiful heads quietly on your shoulder breathing their warm breath. These very loving and sweet young dogs are so pure and vulnerable that it's unbearable to think of them wandering alone on streets and highways or scheduled for euthanasia in a high-kill shelter that's run out of space. Flower, at just about 2 - 3 years old and a tiny 11 lbs was facing the end of her life before it ever really began. Farfel's Texas rescuers are compassionate and loving and couldn't turn their back on this very sweet girl with the great temperament..they rescued Flower just in time to spare her life. Flower, while initially a bit shy and frightened (a long transport between Texas and Colorado is very scary!) is starting out with great energy. The excellent results of her temperament-testing ended with a transport ticket to Colorado and a brand new life. Our wonderful Flower is undeniably beautiful. Her scruffy coat is currently shelter-sad and in need of grooming. Once our gorgeous girl is on a regular protocol of excellent nutrition and loving care, her coat will return to the beauty that her breed mix is known for. We've requested clear new photos and / or videos of Flower. We've not received them at this point (end of year is crazy busy for all shelters and rescuers). Once we are in receipt of new images, we'll update them immediately. Flower, while initially a bit hesitant until comfortable in her new environment, is appropriately playful and inquisitive for her young age. She's also so loving and cuddly. Our cuddly girl would be very excited to be a couch or bed dog to snuggle with her favorite people at the end of an active day. Flower is SO smart and engaging once comfortable in her home - very typical of a Scottie Dog / Schnauzer mix. Since Flower is just a young girl, she's a blank slate just waiting for a kind and patient human to show her the way. She has all the potential in the world to be an awesome adult companion. Flower will form firm bonds with her family (as well as other dogs and humans) and learn positive socialization skills through positive reinforcement / force-free Obedience Classes. This is a regimen of training classes that will make a profound difference in a dog's behavior and her relationship with her people. It does take time and commitment...yet pays off a thousand times over when you have a dog that can accompany you out in the world with excellent behavior. We feel very strongly that every dog deserves the opportunity for formal, positive reinforcement training classes. We therefore aren't willing to adopt Flower out to a home that doesn't choose to offer her this experience. Farfel's is happy to provide a list of approved positive reinforcement / force-free trainers in your area. We're open to Flower finding her forever home with a retired couple or individual with lots of energy to train and enjoy a silly and super-smart young dog. Flower seems to enjoy her relationships with humans and dogs. We would prefer, however, to place her in a home with older kids (tail pulling or rough treatment will create a dog that's fearful of children). Older kids can be active participants in a training regimen and friendship that's so important in both a dog and child's development. Flower will be up to date on her vetting / vaccinations to be in line with our commitment to adopting out only healthy dogs. She has also been spayed to support the need for for a euthanasia - free future in the canine population Flower will be arriving on transport in Boulder on Saturday 1//3/2026 Applications and inquiries are currently being accepted for this very sweet and loyal best friend. An application can be found at http://farfels.com/farfels-rescue/adoption-form/. If interested, please fill out completely and submit. PLEASE NOTE If you're truly interested in adopting Flower, please be sure to submit our adoption application. It's the only initial tool that we have to determine a great match for this very deserving dog. We're sorry, but in most circumstances, we're unable to get back to those that don't submit an adoption application. Thanks so much for choosing rescue.

Story
Velma arrived to us with quite the bad hairdo! After a thorough grooming, she`s ready to find her next home. Velma is a friendly pup who is sure to put a smile on your face. She can be hesitant at times in new places, but all it takes is a little encouragement and a few treats! At this time, she might appreciate a home without children or with older, gentle children.

Story
** If you are interested in adopting Pluto, please fill out our adoption application at http://farfels.com/farfels-rescue/adoption-form/ ** Meet Pluto! Pluto is a silly and friendly 1 year old, 36 pound Schnoodle. His breed is of course just a guess, as we do not DNA test rescue dogs, but the Houston vets believe him to be a Schnauzer / Poodle mix. This sweet guy ended up in a scary shelter in Texas after being found as a stray, but now has a ticket to Colorado for a fresh start. Pluto is super friendly with both people and other dogs, and he thrives on attention and playtime. From Pluto's foster: "Pluto is so fun and playful! He is very goofy. He has been a wonderful guest. He’s a sweetie that just wants to play and cuddle. We haven’t had any accidents around the house, but he does pee on his pee pads(!) in his kennel over night. He is very toy motivated and will sit for a toy. He loves to play catch and can entertain himself. He loves to play with other dogs. He was a tad shy at first but I think he was just confused with all the changes happening in his life. Once he warmed up, he showed his playful puppy-energy side!" Since Pluto is so young, he is a blank slate just waiting for a kind and patient human to show him the way. With positive reinforcement training, he has all the potential in the world to be a loyal, well-mannered adult companion. He’ll thrive with virtual or in-person force-free training classes, which will help strengthen his bond with his humans and build him confidence. Pluto is up to date on his vaccinations 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.
