Story
Hi, my name is Charley Feeny and while I'm the happiest buddy now, before my Underdog days I had a pretty rough go of it. I used to have a loving mama, but one day she went away, and I found myself living with a person who did not like me very much. He was not feeding me or even letting me in from the cold. I wandered off and a nice lady found me. I showed her where I lived and she took me back, but the man said I was a stray and even though I barked and barked, he would not let me inside. The nice lady took me to a shelter. They said I was a hospice senior, and I that I was on the urgent rescue list. Fortunately, the staff really liked me, so they reached out to Underdogs, who sent a new mama to pick me up. My new foster home is so nice. There are other dogs to play with, I am allowed to curl up under the covers whenever I want to and there is lots of healthy food and treats to eat. She took me to the dog doc and she told her that I was neither neither a senior nor a hospice dog. I tried to tell everyone that, but apparently dog docs are more trustworthy. As it turns out, I am only about 6 years old and though not being fed regularly and neglected overall was hard on my kidneys, proper food and some medicine have been healing them nicely. I now weigh thirteen pounds and am looking perky and am the most handsome scruffy terrier and miniature poodle mix.  I love the fenced yard at my foster digs and I especially love going for walks in the morning. New foster mama put an open crate in the living room so I can go in there any time I need time to myself. I also like toys to play with. One weekend we had lots of company, including a 12-year-old girl and extra dogs. Mama said she was so proud of how I behaved.  She tells me that we are looking for my new forever family, someone that will take me for walks, feed me well, love me and help me feel secure again. She says that I will do best with adults and older children with dog experience. I love dog friends, but the kitties are not my most favorite.  If you're interested in adopting Charlie Feeny, please fill out an adoption application here: https://underdogsrescue.org/adopt-form/ Underdogs is a small volunteer-based animal rescue and we unfortunately do not have the resources to respond to phone and email inquires about our adoptable animals at this time.

Story
Jack is a 3-4 year old, 24lb Terrier Mix.  We are guessing he is a Jack Russel Terrier mix but we cannot be sure since we don't know his history. Jack was found wandering the streets with another dog in Kansas.  It was not the first time they had been picked up by animal control...or the second...or third.  Their owners clearly did not care enough to keep them safe at home, and eventually didn't even care enough to pick them up from the shelter.  Jack is super loveable and cuddly and will sit in your lap all day if you let him. He will follow you everywhere like a shadow. He’s also very timid and submissive and flops on his back when you approach him. If you are interested in adopting Ruffles, please fill out our adoption application at brighterdaysdogrescue.com Jack is super loveable and cuddly and will sit in your lap all day if you let him. He will follow you everywhere like a shadow. He’s also pretty shy at first and a very submissive love bug. He flops on his back when you approach him...and loves belly rubs!  He is such a sweet little guy with one of those demeanors and personalities you can't explain until you meet him.  He gets along great with other dogs and all people, but would rather be snuggling and hanging out with his humans than romping around with the other dogs.  If you are interested in adopting little Low-Rider Jack, please fill out our adoption application at brighterdaysdogrescue.com ##2299974##

Story
Bambi is a 3-4 year old Terrier Mix weighing about 10-12lbs.  Bambi came from New Mexico where she was surrendered with 3 other dogs after her Momma passed away and there was nobody else to take care of them.  The other family members were going to dump them at the overcrowded shelter in the area, so one of our rescue partners brought them in and asked us if we could them here in CO.  Of course we didn't want these sweet pups in a high kill shelter, so we agreed to take them here.  Bambi is a sweet little girl with the longest legs.  She gets along well with other dogs and all people.  Big dogs make her a little nervous at first, but she does warm up given time.  She is learning to walk well on a leash although it seems she has probably never gone on walks before coming to us.  She loves to seek out attention and snuggles.  She is such a little love bug and really just wants love from her humans.  She would do great in a home where her human wants to continue expanding her world, but will also be patient with her and wants a dog who is okay with movie/lazy days.  She is a pretty amazing little girl and just needs a forever family of her very own.

Story
Tiffany is a 1 year old Terrier Mix weighing about 8lbs.  Tiffany was surrendered to one of our rescue partners when her Momma passed away and her and the other 4 dogs in the home were slated for the high kill shelter in the area.  We knew these sweet pups could find wonderful forever homes here in CO while also avoiding the terrifying experience of a shelter they may not make it out of.   Tiffany has been in CO for a couple weeks now and she is ready to find her forever family.  She is a sweet little girl.  She gets along great with other dogs and people.  She is a little nervous of the resident cat, but is learning he isn't that scary...it could be because she is smaller than him.  She is a little nervous at first around new people but within minutes she warms up and wants lots of love and snuggles.  She does well with the fosters kids too.  She is a great little dog and just needs a family who will love her unconditionally.  She is very snuggly and loving and will need someone who also wants a loving, snuggly companion.

Story
Are you looking for a pint-sized bundle of energy and love to brighten your life? Look no further—Daisy is here! This charming little gal is a 2-year-old Jack Russell / Rat Terrier mix (our best guess!) who weighs in at just 14 pounds of pure cuteness. From Daisy's foster: "So much good progress with little Daisy! She was pretty confused / timid at first, but sharing the bed helped her bond and feel more secure. She is house trained but I don’t believe anyone ever put a leash on her and she definitely doesn’t know how to go on a walk. But we are practicing in the back yard and she is gaining experience. She is more secure and coming out of her shell more each day! She is cat friendly too!" We don't know if Daisy 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 she masters her 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. At Farfel's Rescue, we believe in setting both adopters and dogs up for success. That’s why we offer a one-week trial period with every adoption. This allows you to make sure Daisy is the right fit for your family before making a lifetime commitment. Should it not work out, we offer a refund of the adoption fee within the trial period. Daisy has been fully vetted, is up to date on her vaccines, and spayed. If you’re interested in adopting Daisy, please be sure to fill out our Farfel’s Rescue adoption application at http://farfels.com/farfels-rescue/adoption-form/. PLEASE NOTE: If you're truly interested in Daisy, submitting our Farfel's Rescue adoption application is essential. Applications from other sites like Petfinder or Adoptapet don’t provide enough information for us to determine a great match for this very deserving pup. We appreciate your understanding! Let’s work together to give Daisy the loving home and happy life she deserves. Thank you for choosing rescue!

Story
Whenever a sweet and engaging rescue dog gets into an urgent situation, Farfel's rescuers like to help. We find that many of the dogs that are relinquished to a high-kill shelter or found as strays are very loving with excellent temperaments.. and ultimately make awesome family companions. Ireland is one of these wonderful dogs that was turned into a terrifying Texas shelter after being found as a stray. Personnel described her in the following way: "We couldn't help oohing and aahing over sweet Ireland the moment she arrived at animal control. She just has that very friendly spirit with a positive attitude and a real love of life! This gorgeous girl is always up for fun whether it's exploring the great outdoors or showing off all her training skills." Ireland 's soft nature isn't meant for harsh shelter life and she was understandably frightened. When Farfel's Rescue spoke up to save Ireland's precious life, she was removed from the shelter environment and now has got plenty of wag in her step and a ton of love to share. This irresistible girl is engaging, affectionate, and always ready to make new friends—whether human or canine. Ireland’s resilience and optimism make her a true survivor and a constant reminder that a little adversity can’t keep an awesome dog down! Ireland is a darling 1 year old, 30 lb Jack Russell Terrier / Smooth Fox Terrier mix. We can't speak to the accuracy of this breed mix (although we can see both breeds in this beautiful girl)...what we can speak to is her sweetness and her value as a wonderful family companion. Ireland is currently 30 lbs, but a tad underweight and should weigh about 35 lbs. Ireland with a heart overflowing with love and a zest for life. The shelter had to amputate the tip of Ireland's tail due to an injury, but not for her to care..her gentle and loving personality are always present and she can wag her back end with the best of them! Ireland is the happiest girl you’ll ever meet! She was so full of joy and tail wags that she gave herself "happy tail"—a condition where dogs wag so much that their tail tip gets injured. Her tail had to be amputated while she was still in Houston, but don’t worry—she’s fully healed and now pain-free, with the cutest little half-nub that still wags nonstop! Nothing can dim her enthusiasm for life, and she’s ready to bring endless happiness to her forever family. Farfel's Rescue has found over time and thousands of rescue dogs that families that attend virtual or in-person training classes with an approved positive reinforcement / force free trainer generally keep their dogs for life. Dogs that don't receive the benefit of proper training and socialization have a much higher risk of being rehomed or far worse, being abandoned. There is a bonding that occurs between a dog and their family through the training process that can't be duplicated. It also teaches behaviors that enable a pup to go out into the world with excellent manners that create a respectful relationship between dogs and their humans. It is for all these reasons that Farfel's isn't willing to adopt to a family that doesn't choose to participate in this training relationship. Farfel's is happy to provide a list of approved virtual and in-person positive reinforcement/ force-free trainers in your area. We envision active, dog-crazy retirees for our sweet Ireland. She would respond so well to the love and attention that this group offers. Ireland would also do well with a younger family that works from a home-based office to love her up periodically throughout the day. We feel that our sweet girl is too sensitive to spend long hours alone while her family works full-time outside of the home. Ireland will be up to date on her vetting/vaccinations to be in line with our commitment to only adopting out healthy dogs. She has also been spayed to fulfill our promise to work toward a euthanasia-free future in the canine population. Ireland is available for adoption now. Applications are currently being accepted for our sweet pup. If interested in this gorgeous and cuddly best friend, please fill out an application completely at http://farfels.com/farfels-rescue/adoption-form/ and submit. **PLEASE NOTE** If you're truly interested in adopting Ireland 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 most 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.
