Berry

Congratulations, you just found the best dog EVER!!! Seriously... we are all SO obsessed with Berry!<br/><br/>Berry is a 4 year old, 23 pound little mystery mix with the most gorgeous, bright blue eyes you’ve ever seen. We and the Texas vets believe she may be a Dachshund / Husky / Chihuahua / Cattle Dog mix, although we do not DNA test our rescue dogs, so her breed is simply a best guess based on her appearance. <br/><br/>Whatever she is, we know one thing for sure: Berry is absolutely perfect! Berry is incredibly friendly, super social, playful, super silly, and really just the sweetest thing! She knows no stranger and loves every new person she meets. She also loves other dogs and is really just a social butterfly!<br/><br/>Berry's story is one of those that makes absolutely no sense. She was picked up as a stray in Houston and ended up in a very crowded, high-kill shelter. She was such a sweet and friendly girl that she actually made it out of the shelter's general population and into their adoption section, which gave her a chance to find a home. Unfortunately, adoptions are incredibly difficult at this particular shelter, and after a week without finding an adopter, Berry was placed on the euthanasia list. She had done absolutely nothing wrong. She was simply running out of time because no one had chosen her.<br/><br/>Thankfully, we learned about Berry and rescued her with literally two hours to spare. We still cannot believe this wonderful little dog came so close to losing her life when she is exactly the kind of dog who should have been scooped up by a family and loved immediately.<br/><br/>From Berry's foster:<br/>"Oh my god, I didn't know a PERFECT foster dog was a thing!!!! We love her so much! I think she is potty trained, but it's hard to completely confirm that yet since it's been just under a week that she's been here. She only has had 1 accident and it was on her first day home, which is typically normal even with a potty trained pup. She is so friendly and loves to snuggle. My roommates and I have to take turns snuggling her. She is super super silly and the queen of play bows. She gets these little tiny zoomies where she doesn't really run, but she just spins in a cute lil circle. She is so cute and so fun!"<br/><br/><br/>Berry does have some areas of hair loss along her body from dermatitis that has been treated. This is unfortunately something we see very frequently in dogs rescued from the Houston area. Dogs who have spent time as strays in the extreme Texas heat, without consistent nutrition, veterinary care, flea prevention, or protection from the elements, can develop dry, irritated skin and poor coat condition. Luckily she has been fully vetted, and is totally healthy. With some time and good nutrition, (she currently gets salmon oil on her food for her skin and coat and we will send her home with some as well) her coat to continue improving and growing back beautifully. <br/><br/>Farfel's would like to see Berry in a home that includes her in family time and fun activities (and some lap or couch-time with belly rubs would be absolutely 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 smart and cooperative dog like Berry the skills to accompany her family out into the world with excellent behavior. Farfel's Rescue is happy to provide a list of approved virtual and in-person force-free / positive reinforcement trainers in your area.<br/><br/>Berry has been fully vetted and is up to date on her vaccinations. This support Farfel's commitment to adopting out only healthy dogs. She has also been spayed to reinforce our commitment to a euthanasia-free future in the canine population.<br/><br/>Berry is arriving on transport in Boulder on Wednesday 9/30/2026. Applications are currently being accepted for this sweet and very loving best friend and can be found at http://farfels.com/farfels-res. cue/adoption-form/. If interested, please fill out completely and submit.<br/><br/>**PLEASE NOTE** If you're truly interested in adopting from us, 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.
