My story

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

Parker is a 2-year-old Chihuahua with a heart full of love and a spirit of adventure! This adorable little guy was found as a stray, but it didn’t take long for him to steal the hearts of our rescue partners. Now, he’s on his way to Boulder, CO, and ready to find a family of his own!

Parker is as sweet as they come—friendly with other dogs and always ready for snuggles. At 13 lbs, he’s the perfect size to accompany you on scenic Colorado hikes or curl up in your lap when the day is done.

We don’t know if Parker has had any formal training, but a (virtual or in-person) positive reinforcement group training class will help him build confidence, bond with his new family, and master good manners. Training is essential for a successful adoption, and Farfel’s is happy to provide a list of recommended force-free trainers to set Parker up for success.

Parker has been fully vetted, is up to date on vaccines, and will need to be neutered after arrival (and is done at no cost with one of our rescue vets). He’s available for adoption on April 9, 2025—but we’re taking applications now!

Farfel's Rescue is a fully foster-based rescue and offers a one-week trial with every adoption. We believe that spending just 20-30 minutes with a dog before making a lifelong commitment isn’t fair to the adopter or the dog. Instead, we give adopters a full week to ensure it's the right fit and offer a full refund of the adoption fee if it doesn’t work out within that time. Farfel’s Rescue has followed this adoption model since 2005 and is proud to place around 400 dogs in loving homes each year!

If you’re interested in adopting Parker, please be sure to fill out our adoption application at http://farfels.com/farfels-rescue/adoption-form/.

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