My story

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

Hello my name is Mr. Gobbles. I know what you’re thinking what a goofy name right? But I was named that because I make very funny gobbling sounds while playing which is one of the funny things about me.

Enough about my name though and let me tell you my story cause it’s been one heck of a ride. My original owner passed away and I was first found by animal control to be part of a big hoarding case. I was super neglected and had trauma to the side of my face. I had no clue how to be a dog or how to act since I was always inside and had no interaction with the outside world. I was then put in a shelter but no one wanted me because I was in bad shape from being neglected and was about to be euthanized. This teenage girl saw me and she just had to save me which I was so happy that I was given a second chance. I was then brought to Three Little Pitties and the girl said she would foster me until I was adopted. Unfortunately again I was a bit neglected at her house and was dumped on her mom to take care of me. She didn’t know much about taking care of dogs so she kept me in a kennel most of the time where I learned to entertain myself with toys. After a week or two Three Little Pitties saw that my foster wasn’t taking as good care me like they said they would so they brought me into boarding where I have been living my best life and getting the exact training I need.

Now that you know my story let me tell you more about me and my personality.

Even though humans have not been the nicest to me I continue to love them unconditionally. I would love a human if my own who will show the same love and give me lots of cuddles. I’m more of a low energy dog and am more than happy to chill around the house with you while you work. I promise to be the best work buddy and very respectful when you’re working and will either hop up on your lap to help with your computer work or entertain myself with toys.

I love kids, dogs, and cats alike. I used to hang out with my foster and her friends before I was given to the mom to take care of. I do prefer the older kids though since they know how to have the most fun. I’m good with other dogs but will mostly ignore them in playgroup and I’ll go hang on my own. My old foster had a cat and I’ve hung around our office cat a bit but both of them didn’t like me much and would swat at me if I got too close so I’ve learned to be very respectful of cats spaces and mostly ignore them now.

I am now learning how to be a dog since I was never shown how. So some things I’ve been working on is socializing with other dogs and people which I’m doing amazing at. I’m also learning how to share my toys with others and am learning that if my toy is taken that it won’t be gone forever but I’ll get to play with it again soon. I’m also learning leash skills because when I first came in I had no clue what a leash was and would flop around like a silly fish which looked kind of goofy. But now that I’m taken on walks daily I have gotten much better. I wasn’t potty trained when I first came to Three Little Pitties but Im potty trained now! Since I’ve been in boarding I have a very consistent schedule for food and potty breaks and would benefit if you kept me on a schedule.

Now that you know all about me I’m hoping that you fell in love with me just like everyone at the rescue has. My story hasn’t had a very happy beginning but I’m hoping to find my happy ending with lots of love and cuddles.

Are you my happy ending?

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.
