My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

🐾 Meet Ford! 🐾

Introducing Ford, a sweet, playful, and incredibly snuggly boy ready to steal your heart! With a gentle and loving personality, this easy-going Shepherd/Labrador Retriever mix captures the essence of both breeds, making him the ideal family pet.

Ford is quite the character, especially as he's learning to control those adorable Shepherd ears. Imagine watching them perk up as he grows into them!

He's house-trained and has earned the trust to roam freely around his home, always preferring to stay close to his family. Known for his affectionate nature, Ford is an expert snuggler who would love to curl up with you on the couch for a movie night.

Ford loves to explore the outdoors and is the perfect companion for any adventure. Whether it's a walk to the lake for a picnic or just a stroll in the park, he's always up for making the most of the day.

Though full-grown at 50 lbs, Ford's medium size makes him a hearty companion without taking up too much space.

Ford dreams of a home filled with love, laughter, and a few tasty treats. His dream home would also have a securely fenced backyard where he can safely play and relax. Great with humans of all ages and other furry friends, Ford's friendly and sociable nature makes him a delightful addition to any gathering.

Ford is your boy if you're looking for a loving companion who brings joy, comfort, and lots of tail wags into your life! Enjoy the chance to welcome this charming and lovable boy into your family. He's ready to turn your house into a home filled with happiness and unconditional love. 🐶❤️

Why adopt from Three Little Pitties?

The stray and animal overpopulation in the Greater Houston area is the highest in the nation. Statistics show that there are over 1 million homeless animals in this region alone. Three Little Pitties Rescue is a nonprofit dog and cat rescue that partners with the community to make a difference. Our mission is to reduce the homeless pet population through community outreach, free spay and neuter services, and saving all breeds of dogs and cats from the streets or animal shelters that oftentimes have no other option but to euthanize animals for space. This dog you’ve found online is lucky to be in our program, and even luckier to have you notice it!

Three Little Pitties wants to set you and your new pet up for success! We know our dogs and we work hard to prepare them socially for adoption. We are a network of dedicated people who are heavily invested in seeing our animals thrive. From the moment they are accepted into our program, our Intake, Behavior & Medical teams prepare them for adoption by properly vetting, behaviorally assessing, and providing customized plans depending on the dog’s needs. We seek to adopt to families who understand that these are rescue dogs and will require continued training efforts, but will be well on their way to being the best dogs that they can be!

It doesn’t stop there! Our adopters also receive these special perks:

• 30 day trial of pet insurance with Trupanion (must register within 24 hours of first vet appt.)
• A free private online dog training session with GoodPup plus low pricing for future sessions (approx $25 weekly for an 8 week course of one session per week)
• One free bonus toy in every BarkBox when signing up for their Super Chewer subscription plan
• 70% off of your first order of Fetch, a PNW based, organic fresh dog food loaf meal subscription plan
• Coupons for a fun visit to Petco
• Access to our exclusive FB Adopters page, where you can network for play dates, resources, and connect with other adopters that share their passion for their adopted pup!

We celebrated our 5 year anniversary this year! Through the combined efforts of all of our hardworking staff and volunteers, we have placed over 12,000 very lucky dogs and cats into amazing homes! By adopting from us, you save TWO lives! The pet you adopt, and you create an opportunity for another animal to be saved in that spot. Together, we can be heroes.
