Say YES to Yesenia!
This adorable girl is a grey/brown/white brindle that is quite the showstopper. Yesenia has a distinctive white stripe on her head, with a white patch of her chest and white boots on all four feet. We are not sure if it will change, but right now Yesenia has the softest pink spot at the base of her nose, right underneath her light brown puppy dog eyes. This dog is so striking – the grey/brown brindle colouring is so pretty – you are sure to get lots of comments when you take her for a walk.
And that’s exactly what Yesenia will want to do – she has such an inquisitive personality that she wants to sniff and explore everything there is to offer. She likes to play with her puppy siblings, but also loves to be held and snuggled – she will tuck her head in your shoulder or lap and snooze away after a good play session.
Yesenia is cautious at first, but warms up very quickly. She is more confident than her shy sister Tinkerbell, yet has such a calm and chill attitude. Her floppy ears (and head tilts) are so expressive that she will tell you everything you need to know about which toys are her favorites. She loves soft stuffies to rest her head on when naptime hits, and promises to be the best snuggle buddy around!
Yesenia loves to play with her littermates and other foster doggy siblings. She is very dog friendly and loves the companionship of other dogs, but would also be okay as an only dog. She hasn't lived with cats yet, but she is young enough to do well with them. She does live with older human kids too.
This sweet girl is almost 4 months old and about 20 pounds, and we think she may be a German Shepherd/Catahoula/Cur mix, but with rescue it’s always a guess! We think that she will only be about 40 lbs when full grown, but obviously we can't make any guarantees. What matters most is that she is adorable and one of the MOST desperate in the entire US based on statistics for where this puppy is from. Shelters in this area are having to euthanize puppies. So, this puppy needs you! If you choose a puppy from this rescue, it saves her life as well as the life of another in her place.
Yesenia is still young, so she will need a family that can commit to training, socialization, and all the dedication puppyhood requires. Her new family will need to continue with potty, crate, and leash training and daily exercise.
She is fully vaccinated, spayed, microchipped. She is currently fostered in TX and is ready to travel to her forever home in the PNW or NE areas.
Don't miss out on this stunning and sweet girl! She is ready to bring you lots of joy and kisses!

Available for adoption in NV, MT, CO,UT, ID, OR, WA, Canada, and now the East Coast! Our PNW dogs are brought to you in style by a beautiful USDA licensed semi-truck, equipped with air conditioning for comfort, two drivers, and 2 onboard attendants providing 24 hour care. Our East Coast route will travel in a private, air conditioned 3LP-run van transport.
Pick up day is unforgettable! You will get to follow along on their journey through a private FB Event page, where you will see photos, have the opportunity to connect with other adopters, and receive updates and constant communication along the way. One of our Adoption Coordinators can help to find the closest transport pick up location to you!
The adoption fee is $800.00 and includes all vetting as recommended by our doctor: DAPP (2 to 4 depending on age and time in the program), Bordetella, Rabies vaccine (if old enough), multiple broad spectrum deworming treatments, spay/neuter, flea prevention, 2 months of heartworm preventative, extended medical such as dentals, eye surgeries, and orthopedic surgeries prior to adoption when suggested by our partner vets, a microchip with free lifetime registration, a high quality nylon Martingale collar for dogs over 4 months old, a health certificate deeming the pup healthy for travel, cost of transport*, and many priceless years of love and loyal companionship!
*WE ARE TOLD THAT WE GO ABOVE AND BEYOND MEDICALLY. This is the feedback we tend to get, although we cannot guarantee perfect health.
*To fully vet a dog in the PNW at many vets it would be upwards of $1,800 just to fix, vaccinate, chip, etc. The adoption fees charged by our rescue do not cover our expenses medically for each animal, but we offset costs with donations. Your adoption fee is considered a donation towards actual costs.
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.
