Darwin's Story

** If you are interested in adopting Darwin, please fill out our adoption application at http://farfels.com/farfels-rescue/adoption-form/ **<br/><br/>Meet Darwin! Darwin is a sweet, 3 and a half year old, 13 lb Miniature Dachshund.<br/><br/>This little guy was picked up as a stray in Texas and brought into a small shelter. When they scanned him for a microchip, they were able to track down his original owner, who shared that she had rehomed him over a year ago. Unfortunately, the person he was rehomed to never responded to the shelter’s attempts to contact them, leaving Darwin without anyone to claim him.<br/><br/>We knew this happy, deserving boy needed a fresh start, so we stepped in and got him a ticket to Colorado. Now safe and cared for, Darwin is ready to leave his past behind and begin a brand new chapter with a loving forever family.<br/><br/>Darwin is a gorgeous, sweet boy, who charms everyone he meets. He gets along great with other dogs, and is friendly with people. With his classic Dachshund looks and silly personality, he’ll make a wonderful companion for someone ready to give him the love and stability he deserves.<br/><br/>We don't know if Darwin 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 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.<br/>Farfel's is happy to provide a list of both in-person and virtual positive reinforcement / force- free trainers in your area.<br/>Our training requirement is to help every adoption be successful.<br/><br/>Darwin has been fully vetted, is up to date on his vaccines, heartworm negative, and neutered.<br/><br/>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.<br/>Farfel's Rescue has been doing adoptions this way since 2005 and is thrilled to adopt out ~400 dogs each year.<br/><br/>If you are interested in adopting from us, please be sure to fill out our adoption application at http://farfels.com/farfels-rescue/adoption-form/ .<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.
