Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Turbo, the Ultimate Hooman Lover!
Turbo is very polite and handsome boy with a heart that overflows with love for all of humankind. He’s a mellow, gentle soul with a passion for people watching and getting pets wherever he can find them!
Turbo is about 2 years old, and we believe him to be a German Shepherd mix, but he is a rescue, and with all rescues, their exact age and breed are a mystery. He weighs in around 66 pounds, the perfect size for a not-too-big big dog!
When Turbo meets you, he’ll will greet you with a waggy tail, and a few kisses on the hands. If that doesn’t get your attention, he’ll show off his dance moves- adorable little skips and hops. When given the opportunity, Turbo will find a way to put his head in your lap and gaze up at you while you pet- Turbo loves to look you in the eyes while engaged with you. His personality shines through those beautiful eyes, and you’ll fall in love, instantly, with all that Turbo is.
When he’s not actively getting pets, Turbo is our resident people-watcher. He likes to lean against the fence, bask in the sunshine and simply watch the world move around him. Turbo’s people-friendliness makes him a fantastic dog to bring to any restaurant, patio, or park. Turbo is comfortable laying on the floor on a bustling patio, his confidence brings him a calmness that makes him very fun to bring out and about!

Turbo, the people-person that he is, could make a fantastic companion for someone looking to meet many new friends. Turbo is the ultimate wingman!
Turbo is good with other dogs of all sizes, but would do best with more relaxed, calm, gentle housemates. Turbo is an old man at heart, and I’m sure he would be a great companion for your senior pup! Turbo would appreciate a home with some good window-watching spots, and a yard to enjoy. Turbo is confident in the car, crate trained and potty trained- though he may need a gentle reminder of appropriate potty spots in his forever home.
We are willing to test this dog with anything you need us to in order to ensure he’s the perfect match for you! We can make anything happen! Just let us know.
Please email Jessicak@threelittlepittiesrescue.org with any questions.
Available for adoption to anywhere in the US. We transport near or into 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 or bus 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. We can help to find the closest transport pick up location to you!
The adoption fee is $650 and includes all vetting per our veterinarian: DAPP (2 to 4 depending on age and time in the program), Bordetella, Rabies vaccine, multiple broad spectrum deworming treatments, spay/neuter surgery, flea prevention, we inject or give 2-6 months of heartworm preventative, heartworm testing and heartworm treatment if applicable, 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 provide weekly socialization programs for our dogs through playgroups and group leash training classes available to all dogs in our adoption program, and Doggy Sleepover, Doggy Day Out, and Ambassador programs for our boarding dogs. There is a professional dog trainer on staff to provide support for our fosters and dogs, and an off-site dog trainer for dogs that need more extensive behavior modification. This helps us learn deeply about every dog, prepare them for adoption, and ultimately match them with loving families. 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:
• 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
• 25% 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.

*Due to the rising cost of fuel and transportation expenses, there will be an additional $62 surcharge for transport.
