My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Aspen: Your New Best Friend!

It’s hard to imagine this truly beautiful (inside and out) American Eskimo Dog found himself in a high-kill shelter in Arkansas. Aspen is a 1-year-old, 23-pound bundle of love with the perfect amount of energy for his age. Whether it’s running and playing outside, hiking, or exploring, Aspen would thrive in a home with a family or retirees who enjoy the great outdoors. After a fun day of adventure, Aspen is happy to settle down and relax on the couch, ready to enjoy some downtime with his people.

Aspen’s story is as heartwarming as it is sad—originally adopted from a puppy store, this purebred American Eskimo was given up when his family moved. Despite that hardship, Aspen has retained his sweet and joyful spirit, eager to start the next chapter of his life with a loving forever family. He’s a smart pup, true to his breed, and has the potential to become a completely bonded and loyal companion.

With his stunning, pure white coat, Aspen will need a bit of care to keep him looking his best—a periodic bath, brushing, and great nutrition will keep his fur soft and shining. He’s up to date on vaccinations, neutered, and ready to begin his new life.

Farfel’s Rescue believes that every dog deserves the chance for formal, positive reinforcement and force-free training. We’re excited to help Aspen thrive and will only adopt him into a home that is committed to offering him this incredible opportunity. If needed, we’re happy to provide a list of approved trainers, both virtual and in-person, to help Aspen shine in his new home.

Aspen will be arriving on transport to Boulder on 10/2/24. If you're interested in giving this sweet, fun-loving, and loyal pup the forever home he deserves, please fill out an application at www.farfels.com/adopt

Let’s make sure Aspen’s next chapter is full of love, fun, and endless adventures!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

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.

An Adoption Application and an Adoption Contract must be completed before any dog can begin their one week foster. Our average adoption fee is $695. This amount serves to cover vetting, spay/neuter, all vaccinations, temperament testing, transport, a microchip, harness, food, and treats.
Our dogs come from Texas, Kansas, New Mexico, Oklahoma and rural Colorado.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

Pets are transported from the southern states every week. Almost 100% of the time, the dogs are spoken for as a result of adoption applications that can be referenced under Adoption at farfelsrescue.com. We study the applications. If the app indicates there is a match, followed up by a home visit and reference checks, the process moves to the next step. The adopter is committing to a one week foster (of course the dog can be returned at any time prior), and can then choose to finalize the adoption.

More about this rescue

We own a pet boutique named Farfel's Farm & Rescue on Pearl Street in Boulder, Colorado. We have had the good fortune to find our niche in the Boulder community and experience success. We felt it very important to "pay it forward" in gratitude. We couldn't think of a better endeavor than to save dogs who were out of time in the southern states, yet had been identified with great temperaments. We dedicate our efforts to their good health and ultimate wonderful, permanent homes.
