My story

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

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

If you're searching for the most loving, silly best friend, Chester is the guy you want to have around!

Chester is an adorable, and quite BEAUTIFUL Corgi / Dachshund mix. He has the gorgeous Corgi hair, ears, and short-legged, long body, and he is just TOO CUTE! Chester is 4 years old, and just 25 lbs.
Chester has a very fun personality! He is sweet, goofy, and loves other dogs and people.

Chester was brought into a rural shelter in Arkansas when his owner passed away. Despite all the change in his life, Chester has been a happy go lucky boy in his foster home, making friends with their dogs, cats, and even grandkids (aged around 8-9 years old).

Farfel's Rescue and our Arkansas rescue partners would love to see Chester in a home with an individual, family (older kids are preferred so there's no tail-pulling or awkward handling) or active retirees who have the time and love for a very loyal and sweet dog. We'd hate to see him left alone all day while his family works full-time outside of the home, as he is much too social for that type of arrangement.

We'd like to place Chester in a home where he'll get consistent stimulation, exercise and love. A (virtual or in-person) positive reinforcement group training class promotes great behavior, bonding and confidence for a young guy 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.

Chester has been fully vetted, and he is in great health, up to date on his shots, 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.
