Sprinkles's 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. They ultimately, with patience and love, make sweet and bonded family companions. <br/><br/>Sprinkles is one of these dogs that ended up in a scary shelter through no fault of her own. Sprinkles, upon her arrival at the shelter was described by personnel as very sweet, although frightened in the shelter environment. Shortly after, Sprinkles was reported as becoming more comfortable, engaging and even silly with her rescuer. <br/><br/>Shelter personnel ooh'd and aah'd over this beautiful Puggle mix and described her as not only beautiful, but soo sweet! The shelter veterinarian identified Sprinkles as a 1 year old, 21 lb Pug / Beagle mix. We can't swear to the accuracy of this breed (although we can definitely see it!)...what we can speak to is her sweetness and her value as a wonderful companion for a dog-loving Colorado family.<br/><br/>Sprinkles, (once comfortable in her environment) is very puppyish in her enthusiasm for all people that are kind to her. She has a love of life and a positive attitude that touches the heart. After all, his very deserving girl has never had a loving or nurturing family to call her own. She has been a victim of circumstance in her life. Farfel's Rescue is committed to changing this trajectory for this awesome dog that has so much to offer a committed family. <br/><br/>Rescue dogs can initially be a bit shy or nervous. This is expected in light of the very long transports and stresses of rehoming. When an adopting family is sensitive to the challenges of change and acclimation for these dogs, the transition is far easier. A home with a very loving and nurturing family that understands that blossoming takes time is perfect for our wonderful Sprinkles. Socialization, pure love and belly rubs are a gift to a dog that is undergoing a life change. If Sprinkles is initially given the time, she will absolutely shine.<br/><br/>Farfel's Rescue has found over time and thousands of rescue dogs that the families that attend virtual or in-person training class with one of our approved positive reinforcement / force free trainers keep their dogs for life, except in very unusual circumstances. Dogs that do not get proper training and socialization have a much higher risk of developing behavioral problems. 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 is unwilling to adopt to a family that doesn't choose to participate in this training opportunity. Farfel's is happy to provide a list of approved virtual and in-person positive reinforcement / force-free trainers in your area.<br/><br/>Sprinkles is such a great age and size. At 1 year old, she's a blank slate that is young enough to embrace new behavioral concepts in her life with many, many healthy and active years ahead. Sprinkles is also the perfect smaller size to accompany her family on fun adventures everywhere that a well-behaved smaller dog is welcome.<br/><br/>We envision active, dog-crazy retirees for our sweet Sprinkles. She would respond so well to the love and attention that this group offers. She 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 Sprinkles is too sensitive a girl to spend long hours alone while her family works full-time outside of the home.<br/><br/>Sprinkles has a stunning tan coat that is currently shelter-sad. Our girl will require a lifelong commitment to periodic baths / brushing and excellent nutrition. Current research is clear that the best diet for a dog is a natural, real food diet. This natural nutrition will cut down on vet visits as well as add years to a dog's life. Farfel's has had experience with Chi Diet (chidog.com). It saved the life of our dog and we wholeheartedly recommend it for yours.<br/><br/>Sprinkles 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 attain a future where dogs are never euthanized due to overpopulation in the canine population.<br/><br/>Sprinkles can't wait to meet her new forever family!
