My story

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

** If you are interested in adopting Reggie, please fill out our adoption application at http://farfels.com/farfels-rescue/adoption-form/ **

Meet Reggie! Reggie found himself in a small shelter in rural Arkansas after being picked up as a stray. This little guy is an adorable Border Terrier mix, who is 1 year old and 13 lbs. He is great with people, other dogs, and even his foster's cats!

From Reggie's foster:
“He's the sweetest little guy. Very loving and playful! He does well with my cats and dogs and doesn't know he's only 13 lbs compared to my other fosters 40 lbs. He is not fond of the crate but curled up on his bed beside my bed and sleeps peacefully in his doggy bed on the floor at nights."

With any rescue, moving from a shelter to a foster to an adoptive home can be very confusing. When an adopting family is sensitive to the challenges of change and acclimation for these dog's, the transition is far easier. A home with a very loving and nurturing family that understands that blossoming takes time would be perfect home for this sweet boy.
Socialization, pure love and belly rubs is a gift to a dog that is undergoing a life change. Given the time and space, these dogs shine.

Farfel's Rescue feels very strongly that every dog deserves the opportunity for formal, positive reinforcement/force-free training.
We therefore aren't willing to adopt out to a home that doesn't choose to offer this training opportunity. Farfel's is happy to provide a list of approved positive reinforcement/force-free virtual and in-person trainers in your area.

Reggie is up to date on his vetting/vaccinations and neutered to be in line with our commitment to only adopting out healthy dogs.

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.

**PLEASE NOTE** If you're truly interested in adopting from us, please be sure to fill out our Farfel's Rescue adoption application.
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.
