Meet Buddy! Buddy is a gentle, sweet 5-year-old Carolina Dog mix with a calm, low-energy personality that makes him an easy companion to love. He gets along wonderfully with other dogs and would fit right into a home with canine friends—or soak up the love as your only pup. This kind boy is also great with kids and would thrive in a calm household or with a family that has older children. Buddy enjoys cozy moments on the couch just as much as he enjoys getting out for walks or relaxed hikes. He walks beautifully on a leash, making every outing with him peaceful and enjoyable. Buddy already knows how to sit and takes treats with the softest, sweetest manners. With his gentle nature and affectionate heart, he’s ready to be the perfect companion for someone who wants a loyal friend by their side. If you’re looking for a kind, easygoing dog to share life’s quiet moments—and a few adventures—with, Buddy might be your perfect match.

Email Kathleen@threelittlepittiesrescue.org We facilitate adoptions across the US through our own internal transport to ensure the quality of care. We travel to WA, UT, OR, ID, VA, PA, OH, NY, CT, VT and Canada (Canadian adopters will need to pick up in Bellingham, WA  or Brattleboro, VT for the eastern Canadian border)! Our pups travel in comfort with 24/7 care on our USDA licensed vehicles, including buses and cargo vans. You can join along on our private Facebook event page to follow their adventure, connecting you with other adopters and providing updates throughout their transport journey!   You will get to meet your new pup over a video call before signing paperwork, creating a fun and personalized adoption experience!    The adoption fee is $1,200 and includes all vetting (DAPP with booster, Bordetella, Rabies vaccine, multiple broad spectrum deworming treatments, spay/neuter, flea prevention, a 12 month heartworm preventative injectable, heartworm test and treatment if needed, a microchip with free lifetime registration, a high quality nylon Martingale collar, a health certificate deeming the pup healthy for travel, cost of transport*, and priceless years of love and loyal companionship!    We have over 15,000 successful adoptions so far and have excellent Google Reviews: https://g.co/kgs/UQ5Pyai We care deeply about making the perfect match between dog and family for long term success.    Our rescue has a 2 acre property in Texas where we assess every animal with trainers on staff, we modify behavior as needed, and create individualized behavior plans to help prepare dogs for their future families including crate training, potty training, leash walking, etc. Our fosters are able to attend group trainings and socialization play groups to keep dogs adoption-ready. Our on-site trainers support the positive growth of our dogs and we enjoy seeing their progress!    Our commitment to comprehensive medical care sets us apart. We've received glowing feedback from veterinarians who commend our dedication to ensuring the health and well-being of every animal in our care with treatments that often go above and beyond.   Our adoption fees reflect the extensive care and resources that go into each animal we save. The adoption fee is a donation to the mission and goes far beyond getting a fully vetted pet.    The rescue’s hard costs alone (excluding transport) for a healthy dog to go through our program typically range between $412 to $859, which includes boarding, food, medications, vaccines, and spay/neuter. For heartworm-positive dogs, hard costs are upwards of $1,368. Additionally, dogs requiring extended boarding, extra training, or extra medical care—such as dental work, vision care, or orthopedic care—can lead to expenses running into the thousands. Also, included in the adoption fee are costs to cover transport up to the Pacific Northwest or East Coast. Transport is a significant additional expense to the rescue.  While adoption fees help cover part of these expenses, we want to emphasize that the rescue does not receive government funding and must fundraise to offset the remaining expense balance which ranges $100-1,000++ per animal on these direct costs.   It doesn’t stop there! Our adopters also receive these SPECIAL PERKS:   Extensive behavioral testing and information from trainers on our staff to ensure the perfect fit for your family  Discounts on Embark DNA test kit- $30 off of Breed ID test & $50 off of Breed ID plus Health test 30 day trial of pet insurance with Trupanion A free private online dog training session with GoodPup, plus low pricing for future sessions  70% off of your first order of Fetch, a delicious PNW based fresh dog meatballs subscription Coupons for a fun visit to Petco 20% off of Dr. Cuddles pet first aid and hygiene solutions Discounted heartworm, flea prevention, and monthly dewormer  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!   Did you know that the Greater Houston area faces some of the highest stray and overpopulation rates in the nation? We are a non profit charity. Our goal is simple— to reduce the homeless pet population through community outreach, free spay and neuter services, and by rescuing animals from the streets or overcrowded shelters where euthanasia due to lack of space is often the only option. The dog you've found online is not only lucky to be in our program, but also incredibly fortunate to have caught your eye. Thank you for considering adoption and for joining us in our mission!   Follow our rescue journey and connect with us on our website and social media platforms. Together, we can make a difference, one adoption at a time.   https://www.threelittlepittiesrescue.org/ https:// www.facebook.com/threelittlepittiesrescue https://www.instagram.com/threelittlepittiesrescue   Ready to welcome a new furry friend into your life? APPLY TODAY and become a hero for pets in need!   *Due to the rising cost of fuel and transportation expenses, there will be an additional $87 surcharge for transport.   DISCLAIMER- Breed type is determined based on general appearance and behavioral characteristics, and cannot be guaranteed unless DNA test results were provided at intake.   Texas local adoption!

Story
Looking for a loyal companion who handles every social situation with grace and a wagging tail? Meet Riley, the sophisticated sweetheart who is officially ready to find her forever fan club! If Riley were a person, she’d be the one at the party who is effortlessly cool, polite to everyone, and secretly the best dancer in the room. This stunning girl is a master of reading the room, she basically has a pHd in dog language. With her gentle spirit and expressive eyes, she has a way of melting hearts without even trying. She is the perfect mix of playful energy and soulful observation, making her a total joy to be around! Want to see those ears in action? https://youtu.be/6ewnL4GrBSg Your New Favorite Shadow has entered the chat (it’s Riley). She is the definition of a ride or die companion. While she loves to explore, she is truly a velcro dog at heart especially once she finds her person! She isn’t the type to demand constant attention, but she’ll happily be your silent partner, hanging out nearby while you work or relaxing at your feet during a movie marathon. Whether you're planning a backyard adventure or a cozy Sunday nap, Riley just wants to be part of the team. We suspect Riley is a beautiful Carolina Dog mix, showing off that classic, sleek athletic look. Weighing in at a sturdy and manageable 48 lbs, she’s the perfect medium size sturdy enough for a walk but compact enough to fit perfectly on the sofa and not take it all up. You can’t talk about Riley without mentioning her most famous feature: those incredible ears! In a world of symmetry, Riley decides to mix it up. One ear stands tall and alert, ready to catch the sound of a treat bag from a mile away, while the other stays adorably flopped over, giving her a curious, "Wait, what did you say?" expression that is as goofy as it is heart melting. While we don’t know her exact DNA since she’s a rescue, we can tell you that she’s 100% a good girl! Riley is flourishing in a loving foster home and is an absolute dream in the house! Whether you’re busy in the kitchen (where she’ll happily supervise the delicious smells) or relaxing in the living room, Riley will be right there near you, offering her quiet, loyal companionship. She is a true expert in the art of the belly rub and will soak up every bit of affection you’re willing to give. Her gentle nature shines through in everything she does, especially when she’s taking treats; she is incredibly soft and polite, making every interaction a total joy. When she’s not being a polite housemate, she’s a frisbee superstar she loves to sprint out for a catch and will happily pounce her way back to you to deliver it for another round. Riley’s also a fantastic travel companion who is great in the car; while she might take a moment to jump in (just to make sure you’ve packed everything you need!) Once she’s settled, she spends the ride peacefully gazing out the window as if she’s leading a serious game of Eye Spy. Riley is a devoted friend to those she trusts. She is looking for a family that will give her just a little time to settle in so she can show off her true, sparkly personality! When it comes to other pups, Riley is a total sweetheart! She is a social girl who truly enjoys the company of other dogs. She’s a bit like the awkward kid at the dance she might take a few minutes to find her rhythm, but once she’s comfortable, she steps right into the spotlight! She loves a good game of chase and will give the most adorable play bows to let her friends know it’s time to party. She’d thrive with a furry sibling who enjoys a game of tag but also knows when it's time to settle down and relax. However, if you're looking for a solo companion, Riley would also be perfectly happy being your one and only! Whether she’s part of a pack or the center of your universe, she just wants to be where the love is. Is she a cat fan? Riley hasn’t quite told us how she feels about cats yet! She showed a polite curiosity when meeting a cat giving it a few friendly sniffs before moving on. Before becoming roommates with a cat, she’d love to have a supervised slumber party with a kitty to confirm they’ll be the best of buds. Riley is incredibly versatile! Whether you live in a house with a yard for zoomies or a cozy apartment mail trip walks, she’s happy as long as she’s with you. Beyond her beautiful golden tan coat, Riley truly brings a sense of warm sunshine into every room she walks in. She is incredibly affectionate and caring, forming a bond that is as steady as it is sweet. One look at her soulful face and those perfectly imperfect ears one standing tall and one adorably flopped and you'll realize she is the missing piece to your puzzle. Those ears give her a constant look of curious wonder, as if she's always listening for your next "Good girl!" or your invitation to play with the frisbee. In short, Riley is a girl who will make you laugh daily, be an awesome canine buddy to your dog, and is ready to see the big-wide-world with you by her side. Between those soulful eyes and those perfectly imperfect ears, you’ll find yourself questioning where this dog has been your whole life. Ready to make Riley a permanent part of your world? https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/animal/62cc8e128b02916730334440/69c54cb449dce384d7049427 Questions?

Story
******Please note, once completing the initial screen you will be connected with the placement for a video chat. Transports run every few weeks and we will have the dog on the next available transport once approved. If you are not able to accept a dog until a specific time period, please apply at that time************ We are a volunteer run rescue and donate our time to these dogs. IF you are not serious about moving forward in our adoption process, please do not apply. If someone other than yourself is part of the decision making process, please make sure you have spoken with them and they are on board. We really do not want to waste anyone's time if you are not serious about adopting this dog. Florence (Flora), 3 years old, spayed female, Carolina Dog mix, 46 pounds. She is in a foster home in HOUSTON, TEXAS and can transport out of State once an adopter is approved. Florence, affectionately nicknamed, Flora, Flory, Lory, or Sweetpea, is a playful and energetic dog who loves to wrestle and be chased. She would do best in a home with dogs of similar size and energy level. When playing, Flora could play for hours. She loves to interact with another dog in the home, Furman by licking his face. Flora has experience playing with dogs ranging from a 35-pound Cocker Spaniel to a 60-pound Pyrenees mix. Flora requires slow and guided introductions to other dogs. She has shown some leash reactivity, exhibiting behaviors like raised hair, whimpering and barking. Her foster parents have worked with her on this behavior. It did take her some time to befriend the resident pup, and Flora may do best as the one and only in the home. Flora’s compatibility with cats is unknown. She adores the 8-year-old child in the home, but is nervous of new children. Flora does have stranger danger when new people come into the home, and tends to bark at them, especially when they move around quickly. Because of her fear, she may prefer an adult household at this time. As mentioned, Flora has some leash reactivity and gets easily spooked, often pulling a lot. However, she has made progress with positive reinforcement and minimal stimuli. She walks much better in calm environments with less activity. She will need consistent training to help her with her leash skills and feeling safe around new dogs and stimuli. Flora is fully housebroken. She has demonstrated some anxiety in the crate at home. When her foster parents have gone out of town she has gone to boarding where she is crated with no issues. At home, she is able to be out of a crate and unsupervised with zero issues. She is fed separately from the other dogs in the home. Otherwise, she shares her toys well and has no issues with people and food, although she needs reminders to take treats gently. Flora has high energy needs and requires dedicated outdoor playtimes to do well inside the home. She thrives in a moderately active home with regular outdoor play sessions. She loves playing with the resident dog, bucking around the yard, eating, going for walks, sunbathing, and birdwatching. She is a total love bug and enjoys snuggling. She does well in the car but is terrified of storms, often seeking shelter in a closet or burying her head in a lap. Flora’s ideal home would be with someone who is often around, enjoys walks or jogs, and will play fetch with her. A home with no other pets or a well balanced dog of similar age, size, and energy level would be ideal. Flora needs an owner who will continue positive reinforcement to help with her anxiety. Flora is very smart, loves learning new tricks, and is very submissive and affectionate. She may be a work in progress, but will reward you with love and companionship for years to come! ***Listed BREED and AGE - We are taking our best guess & recommendations from our veterinarian on age, breed and size when fully grown. We rarely know a dog's exact age nor are we able to tell the true or full breed mix of dogs as our information is limited most of the time. *** Interested in applying to adopt her?
