Adopt Beau a White Poodle (Standard) / Wheaten Terrier / Mixed dog in Boulder

Location:

Boulder, CO

Description:

When Beau's rescuer walked down the aisle of the dismal Texas shelter, she was shocked to see the gorgeous Beau tucked tightly into a cage...his time was up. Farfel's immediately got a call describing how beautiful (inside and out) and sweet this Poodle mix is and the need to save his life. We immediately agreed and Beau became a treasured Farfel's dog. He earned a ticket to a wonderful new life in Colorado with his great temperament that held every possibility for a great future. Beau is just about 9 years old, and in need of a forever home to relax in. Beau weighs approximately 24 pounds of cottony-soft cuteness. He has some dermatitis and hair loss on his back from the harsh Texas streets, but he has been treated, and now just needs some time and good nutrition to help his hair grow back strong and soft. Beau is such a devoted and smart little guy. Since he's been in his foster home, he is a much more relaxed and confident dog. He is literally blossoming! Initially this poor little guy was so frightened due to all the changes in his life but with patience and love, he's truly coming out of his shell! Beau has made progress each and every day with his wonderful foster and has become a much more well-adjusted dog who is open to loving new relationships and fun adventures. Beau has been fully vetted and is believed to be mostly blind due to cataracts in his eyes. His foster mom said he gets around wonderfully and is the best boy! From Beau's foster: * * * *"One word to describe sweet Beau? Impossible! He is smart, happy, loving, spunky, playful, and obedient. He spent the first few days coming out of his shell, and when he did he was the silliest guy! On the first day in our house he learned his way around our kitchen (food), living room (crate), to the back door and down some shallow steps to do his outdoor business. He remembered these routes immediately. And when we slip the lead over his head, he walks toward the front door for a walk. We took him to a pet store where we bathed him and he did so good in the bath. Granted, he does not like to be lifted up into a car or a tub, but he accepts it. He loves to take walks. He stays on the sidewalks and seems to remember the route to the mailbox. He struts and wags his tail. He doesn’t pull. Walks make him happy. Whenever we encountered other dogs, he was calm and friendly. I tried playing with him with a small stuffed squeaky toy to see if he would tug it from me or try to grab it and we played for several minutes. He can play, and wants to play, even if he can’t see very well. I recommend squeaky toys because the squeak gets and keeps his attention. When not playing, walking or eating, he walks himself into his crate and lies down. Sometimes he goes to sleep and sometimes he seems to be listening to what we’re doing. We love sweet Beau and know he will be so darned happy to have a family, and that family will get a generously affectionate lover. " * * * * Beau loves his walks where he can socialize with dog-loving neighbors and their pets. He is such a fun and silly guy that we hope his new family will choose to spend lots of time enjoying his antics. Every day when Beau's foster mom comes home from errands, she's greeted by a very joyous and loving Beau giving happy kisses and dancing a jig of joy. Farfel's Rescue has made the decision that we'd like to see Beau in a home with loving and devoted retirees that spends lots of time at home..or enjoy taking their furry best friend along. A younger family that works from a home-based office would also be a great choice for this people-loving guy. Beau is also a perfect take-along sized guy so it's easy to just scoop him up and snuggle him under your arm. Beau likes the car and is very happy strapped into his car seat to safely enjoy the ride. Beau is at his absolute best with adults. He's much more comfortable with the quiet energy that they bring to a home. A walk followed by time on the couch or bed snuggling with his favorite people would speak to this little dog. He would be overjoyed to be part of a family of lower energy folks. It would match his own energy level and he would be a great match for that family. Beau is unknown with cats. He's compatible, however, with like-sized dogs with similar energy levels to his own. Beau doesn't require a doggy friend to be happy. If his family is attentive and enjoys spending time with their dog, they're perfect for the wonderful Beau, If our sweet guy is adopted as an only dog with a family that will shower full-time love and pampering on him. He will return that love and kindness a million times over as he falls more and more in love with his brand new family. Beau is a non- shedding guy (and considered to be one of the most hypoallergenic breed mixes available today). He will therefore require a lifelong commitment to periodic grooming (approximately every 8 - 10 weeks) and excellent nutrition. A daily salmon oil supplement coupled with 5 star food is a great regimen to keep his cottony-soft coat healthy and matte-free. Beau is available for adoption now. If interested in this gorgeous and very cuddly, loyal and loving best friend, please fill out an application completely at http://farfels.com/farfels-rescue/adoption-form/ and submit. **PLEASE NOTE**. If you're truly interested in adopting Beau, please be sure to submit the Farfel's Rescue adoption application that can be found at the link above or at farfels.com. Rescue site applications such as Petfinder,or Adoptapet don't provide enough information for us to determine a great match and therefore aren't useful. We're sorry, but in many circumstances, we're unable to get back to those those that don't submit a Farfel's adoption application. Thanks very much for choosing rescue!
