Story
There's nothing quite like young dog sweetness and silliness, and then they put their beautiful heads quietly on your shoulder breathing their warm breath. These gorgeous pups are so pure and vulnerable, with their whole lives lying in front of them, that it's unbearable to think of them homeless and alone on busy streets or in a high-kill shelter scheduled for euthanasia due to lack of space. Antoine is a sweet as can be 3 and a half year old, 55 lb purebred Standard Poodle who is just waiting to be the love of a special family's life. Farfel's can't swear to the accuracy of this breed identification as no DNA test was done. This was the opinion of Texas veterinarians. All we know with certainty is that this snuggly guy is irresistible. The Texas shelter had the following to brag about this sweet boy: "Antoine is so friendly and obviously well trained! He sits, shakes, and lays down on command. He is a joy to be around and friendly with all the dogs as well. It's unbelievable that nobody came to reclaim him!" Antoine, true to his breed, has a gorgeous, cottony-soft, non-shedding coat that is a gift to those with allergy concerns. He will therefore require a lifelong commitment to periodic grooming and excellent nutrition. Current research is very clear that a human-grade, fresh diet is the healthiest choice we can provide for our pets. Farfel's has had personal experience and therefore highly recommends Chi Diet (chidog.com) for far fewer vet visits and a long and healthy life for our best friends. Antoine, once comfortable in his new surroundings, is appropriately playful and inquisitive for his young age. He's also very loving and cuddly once over the long transport from New Mexico to Colorado. This snuggly guy would be very excited to be a couch potato and snuggle with his favorite people at the end of a busy and active day. Even at just 1 year old, it's clear that this guy is SO smart and very sweet - typical of the Standard Poodle personality. Some would say that this breed is one of most loving and intelligent family dogs in the canine population. Since Antoine is just a young guy, he's a blank slate just waiting for a kind and patient human to show him the way. He has all the potential in the world to be an awesome adult companion. Sweet Antoine will form firm bonds with his family and learn positive socialization skills through virtual or in-person positive reinforcement / force-free Obedience Classes. These classes will make a profound difference in a young dog's ultimate behavior and in his relationship / bonding with his 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. Farfel's Rescue feels very strongly that every dog deserves the opportunity for formal training classes. We therefore aren't willing to adopt Antoine out to a home that doesn't choose to offer him this training opportunity. Farfel's is happy to provide a list of approved virtual and in-person positive reinforcement / force-free trainers in your area. We would love to see our sweet Antoine in a home with a dog-crazy family (older kids preferred so there's no tail-pulling or awkward handling) or active retirees who have the time and love for a very sweet dog. We'd hate to see this social pup left alone all day while his family works full-time outside of the home. We think he's too sensitive for that kind of arrangement. He's such an amazing dog and just the right size to nap under the desk while his people are working or to accompany his favorite people just about anywhere a well-behaved dog is welcome..and would absolutely love it. Antoine will be up to date on his vetting / vaccinations to be in line with our commitment to adopting out only healthy dogs. He has also been neutered to support our work in zero population growth in the canine community. Applications are currently being accepted for this gorgeous and sweet as can be dog who is learning about love and acceptance in his life. An adoption 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 Antoine, 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.

Story
Meet Sprocket, a 7-year-old Poodle mix with a big personality and a heart full of potential. Sprocket has had a rough start and comes with a history of reactivity and biting. He’s a scared dog who needs a firm, experienced owner to help him feel secure and establish boundaries. Sprocket has had training sessions and responds well to clear, consistent leadership. Once he knows you’re in charge, he’s much more relaxed and doesn’t push back. However, he does react to new people and should wear a muzzle during initial introductions for safety. Despite his challenges, Sprocket has no health issues and thrives on affection from his trusted person. He enjoys being cuddled and will show his sweet side once he’s built trust. If you’re an experienced dog owner ready to provide a structured, loving environment, Sprocket could be a rewarding companion. He’s looking for someone who can help him overcome his fears and show him the love and stability he deserves.

Story
Meet Moonstone A Cancer Survivor with a Heart Full of Love—Moonstone Is Ready for Her Forever Home ❤️ Breed: Portuguese Water Dog Mix Gender: Female | DOB: August 7, 2023 | Weight/Size: 60 lbs (Large) Good With: Dogs ✔️ | Cats: Unknown | Kids ✔️ Medical: ✔️ Spayed | ✔️ Vaccinated | ✔️ Microchipped | ✔️ Healthy & Adoption-Ready | ️ Cancer Survivor Location: Los Angeles, California Transportation: Ozzie and Friends Rescue coordinates safe transportation for approved adopters throughout the United States. ❤️ Personality, Breed Information & Moonstone's Story Moonstone is more than a beautiful dog—she's a survivor. This incredible girl has already faced one of the biggest challenges of her life: cancer. Moonstone received the care she needed, fought her way through it, and came out on the other side ready for a fresh start. Today, she is healthy, adoption-ready, and waiting for a family who will see the wonderful dog beyond her medical history. Moonstone's past is part of her story, but it doesn't define her. What defines her is the life she has ahead of her. At three years old, Moonstone is at a wonderful age. She's past the earliest puppy stage but still young enough to enjoy plenty of walks, playtime, adventures, and years of companionship with her future family. She deserves the chance to experience all the ordinary things that make a dog's life extraordinary—a favorite spot on the couch, walks with her person, toys scattered around the house, and the security of knowing she finally belongs. As a Portuguese Water Dog Mix, Moonstone may have many of the qualities associated with this intelligent, energetic, and people-oriented breed. Portuguese Water Dogs were developed as working dogs and are known for being bright, athletic, trainable, and deeply connected to their families. They generally thrive when given opportunities for both physical exercise and mental stimulation. Moonstone would thrive in a home that provides: Plenty of love and companionship Daily walks and regular exercise Positive reinforcement training Interactive toys and mental enrichment A consistent daily routine Continued socialization Regular grooming and coat maintenance A safe indoor home where she's treated as family Regular veterinary care and appropriate follow-up given her medical history A lifelong commitment through every stage of her life Moonstone fought hard for her second chance. Now she needs someone to make that second chance count. Training, Adjustment & What to Expect Like every rescue dog, Moonstone will need time to adjust to a new family, environment, and routine. Even confident dogs can feel uncertain during the first few days in an unfamiliar home. Please remember the 3-3-3 Rule: 3 Days to decompress and begin feeling safe 3 Weeks to understand her new household routine 3 Months to settle in, build trust, and truly feel at home Her new family should be prepared to continue working on any household manners, leash skills, boundaries, or other training she may need. Rescue environments are very different from permanent homes, so patience and positive reinforcement are important during the transition. As an intelligent and active dog, Moonstone will benefit from a combination of physical exercise and activities that challenge her mind. Training sessions, interactive toys, games, and new experiences can all help keep her engaged and happy. Owner Responsibilities & Veterinary Care Because Moonstone is a cancer survivor, her future family should understand the importance of maintaining a relationship with a veterinarian and sharing her complete medical history with them. Her ongoing care should include: Regular veterinary wellness examinations Any cancer-related monitoring or follow-up recommended by her veterinarian Routine vaccinations as recommended Flea, tick, heartworm, and parasite prevention Routine dental care Regular brushing and professional grooming as needed A nutritious diet and healthy weight management Daily physical exercise appropriate for her health Mental stimulation and enrichment Continued positive reinforcement training Prompt veterinary attention if any health concerns arise A safe, comfortable indoor home Moonstone is currently healthy and adoption-ready, but responsible adopters should understand that continued veterinary monitoring is particularly important for a dog with a significant previous medical condition. Adoption Information If you are interested in adopting Moonstone, please complete an adoption application at: https://www.ozzieandfriendsrescue.org/adoptions Thank you for considering adoption through Ozzie and Friends Rescue, a Los Angeles-based nonprofit dedicated to giving deserving dogs another chance at safe, loving, permanent homes. Although we are based in Los Angeles, California, we proudly coordinate safe and reliable transportation for approved adopters throughout the United States. Moonstone fought cancer and came out the other side with an entire life still waiting for her. She doesn't need anyone to feel sorry for her—she needs someone ready to love her, make memories with her, and give this survivor the beautiful future she fought so hard to have. ️❤️October 27, 2026, 10:47 am

Story
Meet Scout! This poor puppy has been through more than a 1 year old dog should but he is such a sweet little boy. This boy has such a big heart, and is a total love bug once he learns that he is safe! Scout is a 1 year old, 13 lb Shih Tzu / Poodle mix. (His foster thinks he may be more like 10 months - 1 year old). Farfel's can't swear to the accuracy of his breed mix as no DNA test was done. It was the opinion of New Mexico veterinarians and we're going to stay with their educated guess. Scout was picked up as a stray in New Mexico and he was extremely matted. When they shaved his matted hair off, they saw that his left eye was bulging out of its socket, and unfortunately it could not be saved. Understandably, he was confused getting picked up off the streets, going into a scary shelter, and loosing an eye. But he has been adjusting very well since getting to Colorado, and into foster care. Scout can be a little shy when meeting new people, but he is never rude or aggressive at all. He is such a lover boy at heart and when he warms up to you he turns into a total puppy!! He is the sweetest, silliest boy ever (coming from his foster who loves him SO MUCH!) We learned that having a friendly dog buddy in the home makes a huge difference for this sweet boy! We’ve seen firsthand just how much and how fast Scout blossoms in a home with another dog, and how slow and nervous he is in a home without another dog. In a foster home with a dog friend, Scout warmed up to his foster mom and her husband in just a day or 2. He loves playing with and snuggling up to his foster's dog, and quickly became a much happier, more confident little guy. Having another dog around helps Scout feel safe and gives him a friend to show him the ropes while he learns to trust his new people. Because we’ve seen how much having a doggy friend helps him feel comfortable and secure, Scout will need a home with another friendly, welcoming dog. We are not willing to put Scout's comfortability aside and adopt him to a home without another dog. From Scout's foster: * * * * "Scout started off super shy, but warmed up so fast. And by started off shy, I really just mean he was a bit hesitant of me. The second he got home and saw my dogs, he RAN out of his crate and straight to my dogs. Oh my gosh, he LOVES my dogs!!! He MUST go to a home with another PLAYFUL dog. Scout has total young dog / puppy energy and love love loves to play with my dogs! He took a few days to really warm up to us humans in the home - he is still a little stiff if I pick him up, but he got comfortable pretty fast and even loves to snuggle and fall asleep with his head on my lap. He NEVER even from day 1 showed ANY signs of aggression. I could pick him up and he didn't love it (like it just scared him) but he never tried to nip or anything. He is such a pure heart baby! After a few days, he was very very settled and his personality came right out! He is definitely a young dog, and a total puppy! Loves to play, loves toys, if you give him your hand to play with he will gnaw on it like a puppy but will happily take a toy instead. He LOVES toys - all kinds! He is totally crate trained and sleeps in his crate quietly at night (though I think he would love to sleep in bed if you let him). He does stay in his crate when we leave the house, but we left him loose last time we ran errands and he did totally fine so definitely does not need the crate! He picked up the potty training fast and while I wouldn't say he is fully potty trained yet, he is certainly almost there! By day 3 he felt comfortable following me and my dogs outside to our yard to potty. The first few days I carried him out with us and had him on a leash, but after a few days he wanted to follow us out! He has literally 1 pee accident a day, maybe, and that's all. But he never marks!! Thank god! And he poops outside every time! I even was telling him this morning to come back inside with us because everyone else was done and going inside and he looked at me, looked back at the yard, then went poop before coming inside. He's such a good boy!!! Oh - and come to think of it, I have never heard him bark!! Have not heard a peep out of this dog (yet)! We learned today, after about a week with this sweetie that he might prefer his main person to be a female. When I'm home he's not nervous anymore, and doesn't act skittish with my husband, but I left him home with my husband (and dogs) the other day while I went to work and he was super nervous all day with my husband, until I got home! He comes to work with me now (and does great!) but maybe his primary person should be a female, as he warms up faster and is more comfortable with us. Though I am sure with time he will learn to warm up when alone with my (or anyone's) husband, haha. So give Scout a few days to really warm up. He can be a bit nervous about human touch that's not on his terms until he's warmed up. Also if you reach for him or pet him from his blind side you may startle him. But you will not regret being a bit patient the first few days once this absolute silly sweetheart comes out of his shell!" * * * * This sweet guy, with a gorgeous shed-free coat (excellent for those with allergy concerns ) will require a lifelong commitment to periodic grooming and excellent nutrition. Current research is very clear that the best diet we can provide for our pets is a fresh, human grade natural diet. Farfel's recommends Chi Diet (chidog.com) due to our personal experience with our own dogs. It's one of the most important choices we make for our dogs great health and longevity. Since Scout is just a young guy, he's a blank slate just waiting for a kind and patient human to show him the way. He has all the potential in the world to be an awesome and loving best friend. Scout will form firm bonds with his family and learn socialization skills through virtual or in-person positive reinforcement / force-free Obedience Classes. These classes will make a profound difference in a young dog's ultimate behavior and in his relationship / bonding with his 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. Farfel's Rescue feels very strongly that every dog deserves the opportunity for formal virtual or in-person positive reinforcement / force-free training classes. We therefore aren't willing to adopt Scout out to a home that doesn't choose to offer him this training opportunity. Farfel's is happy to provide a list of approved virtual and in-person positive reinforcement / force-free trainers in your area. Because Scout is a bit unsure and learning to trust, though he is a sweet boy, we know that he would be too overwhelmed in a home with kids. Scout will be up to date on his vetting / vaccinations to be in line with our commitment to only adopting out healthy dogs. He has also been neutered to support Farfel's commitment to a euthanasia - free future in the canine population. Applications are currently being accepted for this sweet as can be pup. An adoption 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 Scout, 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.

Story
Meet Rocky ❤️ Three Little Paws, One Very Big Heart—Rocky Is Ready for His Forever Family Breed: Jack Russell Terrier / Poodle Mix Gender: Male | Age: 6 years old | Weight/Size: 28 lbs (Small-Medium) Special Feature: Rocky has three legs Good With: Dogs ✔️ | Kids ✔️ | Cats: Unknown Personality: ❤️ Very Loving | Gentle | Sweet-Natured | Affectionate Medical: ✔️ Neutered | ✔️ Vaccinated Location: Los Angeles, California Transportation: Ozzie and Friends Rescue coordinates safe transportation for approved adopters throughout the United States. ❤️ Personality & Breed Information Rocky is a special Jack Russell Terrier / Poodle mix weighing approximately 26 pounds. This handsome boy may have only three legs, but he certainly isn't missing any love to give. Rocky is described as incredibly loving and noble, with a gentle and sweet nature. He's friendly with other dogs and good with children, making him a wonderful candidate for many different types of families. Being a three-legged dog doesn't mean Rocky can't enjoy a happy, active, and fulfilling life. Many tripod dogs adapt remarkably well and enjoy walks, exploring, playtime, and everyday family activities. His family simply needs to be thoughtful about his individual mobility and physical needs. Rocky's Jack Russell Terrier and Poodle heritage makes for a fun combination. Both breeds are known for being intelligent and highly trainable. Jack Russells tend to be lively, curious, playful, and adventurous, while Poodles are often affectionate, people-oriented, clever, and eager to learn. Rocky will benefit from activities that engage both his mind and body, while keeping his exercise appropriate for a three-legged dog. His ideal family will provide: Plenty of love and human companionship Daily exercise appropriate for his mobility Mental stimulation and interactive toys Positive-reinforcement training Continued socialization Comfortable places to rest A safe environment with good traction Regular grooming and coat maintenance Healthy weight management A secure indoor home where he's part of the family A lifelong commitment Most importantly, Rocky needs someone who sees the wonderful dog he is—not the leg he doesn't have. Training, Adjustment & What to Expect Rocky's future family should allow him time to become comfortable with his new surroundings and learn the household routine. Rescue dogs may arrive with basic training at best, so adopters should be prepared to continue working on house training, leash manners, basic commands, boundaries, and household routines as needed. Please remember the 3-3-3 Rule: 3 Days to decompress and begin feeling safe 3 Weeks to understand his new household routine 3 Months to fully settle in, build trust, and feel at home Because Rocky has three legs, his adopter should also pay attention to his physical comfort. Non-slip flooring, maintaining a lean and healthy weight, limiting unnecessary jumping, and providing appropriate exercise can help reduce excess stress on his remaining limbs and joints. Rocky doesn't need to be treated as fragile. He simply needs a family willing to understand his body and help him stay comfortable and active. Owner Responsibilities & Veterinary Care Rocky is already neutered and vaccinated. Because tripod dogs place additional demands on their remaining limbs, maintaining Rocky at a healthy weight will be particularly important throughout his life. His future family should provide: Routine veterinary wellness examinations Recommended vaccinations and boosters Flea, tick, heartworm, and parasite prevention Routine dental care Regular brushing and professional grooming as needed Quality nutrition and healthy weight management Exercise appropriate for his mobility Monitoring of his remaining legs, joints, and overall movement Mental stimulation and enrichment Continued positive-reinforcement training Veterinary treatment whenever illness or injury occurs A safe and comfortable indoor home If Rocky ever develops changes in his movement, activity level, or comfort, his family should have him evaluated by a veterinarian rather than assuming the change is simply related to being a tripod. Adoption Information If you are interested in adopting Rocky, please complete an adoption application at: https://www.ozzieandfriendsrescue.org/adoptions Thank you for considering adoption through Ozzie and Friends Rescue, a Los Angeles-based nonprofit dedicated to helping deserving dogs find safe, loving, permanent homes. Although we are based in Los Angeles, California, we coordinate safe and reliable transportation for approved adopters throughout the United States. Rocky may walk through life on three paws, but he has every bit as much love, personality, and joy to give as any other dog. He's loving, gentle, dog-friendly, kid-friendly, and ready for someone to see just how special he is. Rocky isn't looking for sympathy—he's looking for his family. ❤️October 27, 2026, 10:47 am
