My story

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

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

Dash was brought into a small shelter in rural Texas and relinquished by his "aunt" because his owner had passed away and no one in the family could / wanted to take him in.

Dash is 2 years old and 18 lbs. He is a gorgeous, purebred Dachshund! Dash is very friendly and energetic. He is a young dog who is always happy.

Despite losing his home and ending up in a scary shelter, Dash has remained sweet and friendly with everyone he meets. He is great with other dogs as well.

We don't know if Dash has had any formal training. A (virtual or in-person) positive reinforcement group training class promotes great behavior, bonding and confidence for a young dog whose self-esteem will fly high while he masters his skills. Training is so important in the future behaviors of every dog. It's for this reason that we're unwilling to adopt to a family that doesn't make this loving choice.
Farfel's is happy to provide a list of both in-person and virtual positive reinforcement / force- free trainers in your area.
Our training requirement is to help every adoption be successful.

Dash has been fully vetted, is up to date on his vaccines, and 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.
