Here's what the humans have to say about me:
We all know how we get that awww feeling when we see an adorable young dog. Sable is the kind of pup who once comfortable in her environment snuggles in, loves you up and then puts her head on your shoulder breathing her warm breath. She's so sweet (while being initially a bit shy) and so very loving and irresistible that you can't help falling head over heels in love.
This is the case unless a dog like Sable is in a high-kill shelter scheduled for euthanasia due to lack of space or is wandering scary urban streets lost and alone.
It wasn't many days later that Farfel's Rescue received a plea to save the life of Sable, a 10 month old, 29 lb Schnauzer / Border Terrier pup that is nothing but pure love! We responded almost immediately that we'd be more than happy to accept precious Sable into Farfel's Rescue.
Sable's Texas rescuer had the following to brag about our sweet girl: It was heartbreaking when Sable was found on the streets by animal control. She greeted AC with a wag as if to say, "What took you so long to save me?" Upon further inspection, they found a collar deeply embedded into the delicate skin of Sable's neck. We all felt awful for how long she may have dealt with the pain, but not for this brave pup to complain. She was sweet and well-behaved as it was removed and the area was treated.
We quickly found that Sable is a dark-eyed, scruffy beauty that is not only gorgeous but as sweet as can be.This pup is also a perfect size at 29 lbs to accompany her family just about everywhere a smaller-sized and well-behaved dog is welcome. Sable will fit right in due to her sweetness and great temperament. She is already starting to understand that kind and cooperative behavior makes great things happen in life. Our dream for this cuddly pup is a forever Colorado home with an active, dog-crazy family that will cherish her for life.
As Sable becomes more and more comfortable in her forever home, she will blossom and become a fuzzy ball of good-will that loves to please. The happier her family is with her behavior, the more she will shine with her accomplishments. Farfel's would like to see Sable in a home that includes her in family time and fun activities (some couch-time with belly rubs would be perfect!) as well as taking that extra step to participate in positive reinforcement / force free virtual or in-person obedience classes. These classes successfully teach a very smart and cooperative pup like Sable the skills to accompany their family out in the world with excellent behavior. Farfel's Rescue is happy to provide a list of approved virtual and in-person force-free trainers in your area.
Sable will be a loving and devoted companion for active retirees who have the time and desire to be best friends with a silly, active and fun-loving pup. Sable would also enjoy another gentle dog to play with.. She's so fun to watch as she puts her positive energy into enjoying the day with her foster and a furry friend. This engaging girl would also do well with a younger family that works from a home-based office. She would bask in the attention and cuddles periodically throughout the day that this life-style brings.
Sable is up to date on her vetting and vaccinations to stay true to Farfel's commitment to only adopting out healthy dogs. She has also been spayed to fulfill our commitment to ending the tragic canine overpopulation challenge.
Sable is arriving on transport in Boulder on Friday 11/8/2024. Applications are currently being accepted and can be found at http://farfels.com/farfels-rescue/adoption-form/. If you're interested in this sweet, cuddly and fun-loving best friend, please fill out our application completely and submit.
**PLEASE NOTE** If you're truly interested in adopting Sable, 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.
