Farfel’s Farm & Rescue
Farfel’s Farm & Rescue was founded on the idea that each dog deserves a loving home and the chance for a happy life. We are so thrilled to be able to rescue these amazing dogs from urgent situations in Texas, Kansas, Oklahoma and New Mexico. Working with a dedicated team of volunteers, the animals are pulled from high-kill shelters because they’ve been recognized for their great temperament. They are then transported by specially licensed vans to Boulder and Denver, Colorado for a second chance at life. They are then evaluated and treated for any medical issues before being transitioned to their adoptive parent or foster parent, where they can become accustomed to having a warm bed, plenty of food and toys galore!
Our criteria is stringent. All dogs that make the trip to Colorado have been vetted and vaccinated, spayed or neutered whenever possible, and temperament tested with adults and other dogs. We try to work with the foster in the home state to temperament test with children when possible. If the dogs are not spayed or neutered when they arrive, Farfel’s is happy to cover all costs to have them sterilized at one of our Lakewood veterinarians.
We’re so appreciative for all of our amazing fosters, volunteers and all those who choose to donate to our rescue endeavors. These donations help provide medical care for those deserving dogs who have special needs. This might support a surgery for Boots who is blind and would see the world for the first time with a cataract surgery. Or maybe it would be for Colby who has a terminal heart condition from a life spent in a breeding cage…we think she deserves only the best care, nutrition and medical support for the remainder of her life. 100% of these donations are spent on the needs of these exceptional beings who ask for nothing and provide us with never-ending love and companionship.
