My story

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

This is Freckles, aptly names so for his gorgeous black and white speckled freckled coat. In rescue breed and age are offered as educated guesses given we do not know a dogs history but we believe Freckles is about 3 years old and is possibly a Staffordshire terrier/ Australian Shepherd mix. He weighs in at 82 lbs so he is bringing big snuggle possibilities.

Freckles is an easy-going and confident boy, he leads with a bit of aloofness but that's just his way of checking things out. Once he feels comfortable he will come and check-in for some affection, showing his tail-wagging friendly side. He responds positively to a connection and comforting presence without needing constant reinforcement or praise. I can see Freckles being great company for putzing around outside, whether it's some gardening or tending to any ol' thing, Freckles will be happy to keep you company without getting in the way.

Walking with Freckles is a breeze! He corrects easily, stays close, and follows commands well. Plus, he's able to walk past unfamiliar dogs without any reactivity, showing his calm, unbothered, personality.

We introduced Freckles to multiple dogs and he was easy-going and calm. With time and the right connection he may show a more playful side. He's looking for friends, just needs some time to warm up. He will need some decompression time once he arrives in his new home, just a short period of understanding while he gets settled, but the reward is a loving and affectionate companion

Freckles was introduced to our house cat Tom, his interest and overly focused attention tell us he wouldn’t make a good house-mate to a cat. He would likely try to chase a cat and that chaos is nobody’s favorite. In our books, that is perfectly okay! Just like people, not everyone is a cat-lover.

Freckles’ dream home? One with a yard to explore and soak up the smells with a sunny spot for mid-day naps. With space to allow him to go out he will be able to show you how content he is by himself when needed. He can entertain himself with just his own company and that is a skill in itself.

To sum it up, Freckles is one incredibly cool looking boy, confident and easy-going, good on leash, enjoys company of other dogs, not really a cat-guy, and is looking for his fur-ever home! A hidden gem waiting for the right crew to see him shine. Your patience, understanding, and love, will help Freckles become a cherished member of your family!

f you have any questions about Freckles or would like us to test him for a specific setting or detail, please be in touch! We can make most anything happen to ensure he is the correct fit for you and your life!

The stray and animal overpopulation in the Greater Houston area is one of 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 choice but to euthanize animals for space. We prepare them for adoption by properly vetting and providing individualized care through our incredible behavior program that consists of socialization and leash training for all animals that enter our adoption program prior to matching them with loving families who will treasure them for the rest of their lives. They are rescue dogs and will require continued training efforts once adopted, but will be well on their way to being the best dogs that they can be!

Three Little Pitties Rescue will soon be celebrating our 5 year anniversary! Over the course of this time, we have been very fortunate for so much growth, allowing us to further connect with the community and save many lives. Through the combined efforts of all of our hardworking staff and volunteers, we have placed over 10,000 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 brought into our rescue program. Together, we can be heroes.
