albert

If you're searching for the most devoted and loving best friend ever....Albert is the pup you want to have around! Albert, at just about 2ish years old and 10 lbs, is just naturally a lover. When he looks at you with those dark, expressive eyes and sweet smile, your heart just can't help but melt.

Albert is a cute as can be Maltese / Poodle mix (Maltipoo) with all the traits that make these super-smart and personality-plus dogs very popular breed mixes for families as well as best friends for individuals.

Albert enjoys his rescuer so much that he would win an award for being a lap dog extraordinaire. This sweet little guy cuddles close and an occasional kiss is inevitable. Albert is a sensitive and very sweet young pup who derives so much joy from his time spent with his people and his canine best friend.

Albert is a very healthy tiny dog who will love his family with all his heart. He would enjoy another gentle dog to play with, and then lying together in the sunshine enjoying a beautiful day is perfect for Albert.

This curious little guy will have so much fun exploring and taking walks along Colorado trails. He's always open to new activities with a never-ending positive attitude...just say the word and up Albert jumps for a car ride, some backyard play or just a sociable stroll around the neighborhood.

Albert's rescuer had the following to brag about this sweet pup:

Albert is a beautiful Maltese / Poodle mix (or so the shelter vets have told us..all we know for certain is that he's irresistible) with a beautiful face and the prettiest dark eyes ever. He's between 2 and 3 years old. This is the perfect age, old enough to have left his babyish behaviors behind and young enough to absorb new concepts and training skills.

Albert weighs a very portable 10 lbs. This is such a great size to be tiny enough to be able to pick up and carry under your arm when the going gets challenging.

Albert may be initially frightened after his very long transport.to Colorado but given a bit of time Albert becomes an extremely engaging and loving dog! We would love to see Albert in a home with a family (older kids preferred so there's no tail-pulling or awkward handling) or active retirees who have the time and love for a very loyal and sweet dog. We'd hate to see Albert left alone all day while his family works full-time outside of the home. We think he's too sensitive for that arrangement. He's such an amazing dog and just the right size and temperament to accompany his people just about anywhere..and would absolutely love it.

Farfel's would like to see Albert in a home where he'll get consistent stimulation, exercise and tons of loving hugs. A positive reinforcement training class promotes great behavior, bonding and confidence for a little guy whose self-esteem will fly high while he masters his skills. Farfel's is happy to provide a list of both virtual and in-person positive reinforcement trainers in your area.

Albert has a gorgeous pure white non-shedding coat that is currently shelter-sad. He will require a lifelong commitment to periodic grooming (approximately every 8 weeks or so) and excellent nutrition (5 star food and a daily salmon oil supplement are strongly recommended for longevity and coat care) to keep Albert's hair cottony-soft, shining and super- healthy.

Albert is arriving on transport in Denver on Saturday 3/14/2026. We're currently searching for a very loving and committed family for our sweet as can be Albert. Applications are being accepted for this loyal best friend and can be found at http://farfels.com/farfels-rescue/adoption-form/. If interested, please fill out completely and submit.

**PLEASE NOTE** If you're truly interested in adopting Albert 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 that we have to determine a great match for this very deserving dog. We're sorry, but in most 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.
