Chai's Story
There's nothing quite like puppy energy and silliness! These very loving babies are so pure and vulnerable that it's unbearable to think of them homeless and hungry or in a high-kill shelter with euthanasia pending due to lack of space.<br/><br/>Chai, at just 3 months old and 4 lbs (anticipated to be approximately 8-10 pounds when full-grown) was facing the end of her life before it ever began. Farfel's New Mexico rescuers are compassionate and loving and couldn't turn their backs on this gorgeous girl with the great temperament. They rescued Chai just in the nick of time to spare her life.<br/><br/>Sweet Chai is starting out with great energy. The excellent results of her temperament-testing ended with a transport ticket to Colorado and a brand new life. <br/><br/>Chai is appropriately playful and inquisitive for her young age. She's also so loving and cuddly. This little girl would be very excited to be a couch potato and snuggle with her favorite people at the end of an active day. She's also SO smart and engaging - very typical of a Chihuahua. Many would say the Chihuahuas are among the most intelligent and cuddly in the dog world.<br/><br/>Since Chai is just a young puppy, she's a blank slate just waiting for a kind and patient human to show her the way. She has all the potential in the world to be an awesome family companion. Chai will form firm bonds with her family (as well as other dogs and humans) and learn positive socialization skills through virtual or in-person positive reinforcement training classes. This training experience will make a profound difference in a dog's behavior and their relationship with their people. It does take time and commitment yet pays off a thousand times over when you have a dog that can accompany you out in the world with excellent behavior.<br/><br/>We feel very strongly that every dog and their family deserves the opportunity for formal, positive reinforcement training classes. We therefore aren't willing to adopt Chai out to a home that doesn't choose to offer her this training opportunity. Farfel's is happy to provide a list of approved virtual or in-person positive reinforcement / force-free trainers in your area.<br/><br/>We're open to Chai finding her forever home with someone with lots of energy and time to train and enjoy a silly and super-sweet puppy. Chai enjoys her relationships with all humans and dogs, we would prefer however, to place her in a home with older kids only (tail pulling or rough treatment by young kids will create an adult dog that's fearful of children). Older kids can be active participants in a training regimen and friendship that's so important in a dog's development. Chai enjoys her relationships with other dogs as well and would love playing hard and enjoying the sunshine with a canine friend on a beautiful day.<br/><br/>Chai will be up to date on her vetting / vaccinations to be in line with our commitment to adopting out only healthy dogs. She has also been spayed in our quest to create a euthanasia-free future in the canine population.<br/><br/>Peaches will be arriving on transport in Boulder on Wednesday 14/22/2026. Applications are currently being accepted for this beautiful, very sweet and loyal best friend. An application can be found at http://farfels.com/farfels-rescue/adoption-form/. If interested, please fill out completely and submit.<br/><br/>**PLEASE NOTE** If you're truly interested in adopting Chai 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 we have to determine a great match for this very deserving pup. 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.
