Puppies and dogs in Orem, Utah

This is Teddy Boy and with a name like that, you know what you’re in store for. We’re talking serious big hug energy. We all know the feeling of a perfectly timed hug, it’s a level of free therapy we all want and need- a true teddy bear in every sense! With his soft, cozy, warm brown fur and an irresistible charm, he’s the kind of pup that makes everyone feel better just by being around. From his absolute lover boy vibe to the fun-uncle approach he has with kids- he is a swoon for the ladies and a dream wingman for the gentlemen. Watch Teddy Boy’s video and FALL IN LOVE with him: https://youtu.be/hB7Hvb85a00?si=R1_PYPQW6McRmt05 Now, let’s get down to business. While we can't be 100% sure about his breed or age, we suspect Teddy is some type of American Staffordshire Terrier mix, estimated to be around 3.5 years old and 62 lbs- a true hunk-of-love. Put the numbers aside, let’s talk about what really matters—Teddy’s personality and all of the other things that make Teddy a great family dog! His true crown and glory is how amazingly calm, patient, gentle and tolerant of it all when it comes to the littles. Truly, queue the AWWWW of a room full of women who got to watch a five year old squeeze Teddys neck with whole body for Teddy to turn around and lick his face with all the love a bully can have for a boy. If Teddy was put on this earth for one thing it’s to spread the warmth of what we call the “Teddy experience,” which starts with slobbery kisses and ends in tail-wagging bliss. He is a family-approved cuddler with a side of patient saint. When it comes to strangers, the word does not exist in Teddy's vocabulary. He loves every single person he meets. It's honestly something to admire. He greets everyone like he has known them his entire life and showers them all with slobbery kisses and those big grand hugs of his. Only if you let him though! He is mindful if that's not someone's cup of tea but he will test the waters to see at first. He just wants people to know how much he loves him is all. Teddy is the perfect dog to take with you places or if you like having friends over because of how friendly he is. In public, surrounded by crowds - true gentleman happy to be there. At home with friends over - a soft friendly welcome followed by snuggles. In the car, going through the drive thru - a happy boy with the biggest smile sticking his head out the window saying hello. Truly, Teddy can do it all. As far as canine-companions go, he is very dog friendly! Teddy absolutely loves to play and brings that fun uncle energy when he is plating with other dogs. He is bouncing, bobbing, doing these quick feet type movements, inviting play with the most perfect play bows, and having the time of his life. Teddy loves to wrestle and loves when he is with other dogs that love wrestling too. You know that what we're talking about, the kind of rumble and tumble moments where slobber is flying, grumbly noises are being heard, paws are flopping around, and they are both rolling around like a couple of goofy puppies. There's lots of mouthy play and exaggerated movement with tails wagging the whole time and the occasional bark; in Teddy's case a snort LOL. He is actually a little pig not a dog. It might look a little wild but it's all in good fun. Teddy knows how to read the room and knows who he can play wrestle with and who he can't. I have personally seen him with so many different dogs all with different energies, play styles, tolerance, etc. and he does such a great job and figuring out who he can play with or if there is any potential of playing in general. For example, he has spent a lot of time with a older pittie girl who really just likes to lay in the grass and sunbathe, that's all she wants to do and Teddy was so gentle with her and didn't even try to play with her. He accidentally bumped into once and she growled at him and he just acted like, "oh sorry friend, I didn't see you there." He has also been with male dogs that love to play chase and want dogs to chase them and Teddy adjusted to that type of play even though all he wanted to do was wrestle. He knew the other dog didn't want to play that way and respected that. He did try to test to see if the other dog would wrestle with him but he didn't and Teddy respected that. There was no one else in the yard that would play with Teddy so he just went off, sought out affection from the people that were there and ended up finding a little muddy/water hole patch to relax in. Queue the piggie reference LOL. If you don't have other dogs, Teddy fills the “shoes” of at least two dogs and would love to be the one who single-pawed, lights up your life. He does not need the company of another dog to help him feel comfortable and open up, he is confident and SO LOVING all on his own. He also doesn't need the company of another dog fulfill his energy needs. Mental stimulation games, likes puzzles, Kongs, or physical exercise such a playing ball in the backyard, going on a walk around the neighborhood, or even going on a day date to the farmers market, or local brewery to meet up with friends will be both physical and mentally tiring. Once you're home he'll be a tired boy and ready for all the naps and snuggles. With feline friends, he had a bit too much interest in our resident cat, Tom—so, no feline friends for Teddy. Not a deal-breaker in our book. He’s been lucky enough to be fostered in a loving home, where he’s mastered the fine art of house manners and is both house and crate trained. Yes, you heard that right—no messy surprises here! Not only does he have stellar house manners, Teddy is very smart too. He already knows how to sit, walks well on a leash, is a perfect gentleman out in public, has a generally good recall already, and is a fast learner! Teddy attended an event recently and there was a prime picture worthy moment but no where to tie his leash up to so practiced the place command right then and there! When we say, Teddy instantly knew what was expected of him, HE DID! You can see it for yourself in his video. It was so impressive to because there was a lot going on, a lot of stimulation, noises, people walking by, other dogs, you name it and Teddy learned the makings of a good place command in seconds. Teddy also has wonderful manners in the car! He is completely capable of loading up and unloading all on his own. He might need a booty push every now and then LOL if he's had a long day and is tired. You'll know if he needs help because he'll stand there and look back at you with this look of, "um excuse me, can I get a little assistance please?" During car rides you have the option of letting him ride shotgun or in the back without tethering him. He'll look out the window regardless of where he is sitting. He doesn't bark, he just watches all the passerby's and patients waits for the destination. If an affectionate boy who is real easy on the bully-loving eyes is what you are looking for then you have found him! The soft fur, the warm kisses, his adoring approach to kids, grade-a snuggles, and a true-blue loyal companion, Teddy is your boy! He’s ready to be yours!

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 $900 and includes all vetting (DAPP with booster, Bordetella, Rabies vaccine, multiple broad spectrum deworming treatments, spay/neuter, flea prevention, a 12 month heartworm preventative injectible, 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!

This sweet boy is a LOVER, he adores people, and exudes so much gratitude for each and every pet. His name is Hector Zeroni and he lives up to every part of the “happy hoppy goofy goober” portion of his name. Hector almost immediately became a rescue favorite, his goofy and bright personality brings joy everywhere he goes. Social and friendly, great with other dogs, easy on leash, is so smart, loving and friendly, he’s a dream dog. Hector is such a good boy! He shines in a lot of areas but he shines the most in his ability to make you laugh! When he’s super excited and happy (which he’s happy all the time) he does this full spin hops in the air like he’s a dancing goat. It’s the cutest and funniest thing ever! You’ll catch little glimpses of it in his video. We suspect Hector to be a Dogo Argentino, Pit Bull mix, around 3 years old. He is a rescue so her exact age and breed are unknown to us and cannot be guaranteed. He weighs in around 50 pounds. Fall in love with Hector here: https://youtu.be/aRX4bkcNN78?si=4DYZIPbcYcKsZv0V In his foster home and here at the rescue, Hector does not have indoor accidents. He’s great in the car, and has taken long drives while sharing the backseat with other pups. No anxiety, or barking from this boy- just a confident car rider looking forward to the destination. He is also very easy on leash and would make an excellent hiking, or camping buddy. He loves his outside time too, whether it’s enjoying some happy little zoomies or romping with other dogs, Hector is just happy to bask in the sunshine. Hector has a goofy and silly play style, with lots of hops, tail wags and chase. He will engage in those rumble and tumble moments with other dogs and also knows when it's time for a play break as well. He also isn't the type that is going to be overly pushy about wanting to play either. Hector is great when he is around other dogs that don't like to play. He's simply off doing his own thing or he's getting spoiled with affection from people. In a home, he would do best with an aloof medium energy female that enjoys playing and also appreciates those calmer moments as well. If you don't have other dogs, that's fine too! Hector doesn't need the company of other dogs to be his happy goofy self. He's that way all on his own and he'll love all the attention too. No kitties for Hector please, he was a little too interested in our house cat biggie. With humans, Hector is up for just about anything! This sweet boy has never met a stranger, and is so quick to give away his big pittie kisses. Hector will play tug of war, or catch toys in his mouth. He’s also happy to just hang out and get some pets. Indoors, Hector has excellent house manners. He loves the couch, and he’s soooo snuggly. Hector is deaf, which we suspect to be genetic- he is a white pittie, and deafness is common with white pitties. Hector’s foster family is learning how to teach him hand commands, though Hector is a rescue and lots of life experience that we don’t know much about. Hector seems to already know at least some hand signals, watch his video to see him “sit” on command! Because he is deaf, Hector won’t respond to a verbal “no,” but he does respond well to a squirt of water. Water guns or spray bottles will be your best friend as you teach Hector how to be your perfect dog. Hector is food-motivated and love-motivated, a VERY smart and eager-to-please boy that will pick up on training quickly. Hector’s deafness will be his super power in your home, Hector isn’t scared of thunderstorms or fireworks because he can’t hear them. He isn’t overwhelmed by loud, hectic households. If you’re someone who enjoys hosting, Hector is super social, friendly, and doesn’t mind hearing lots of voices or loud music! Sounds like a match made in heaven to me! Hector would do best in a feline-free home, but he’s not too picky about anything else! We believe he would do well in a single dog or multiple dog household, as a family dog or a companion to a single person. Small children may not be a good match for Hector, without hearing, dogs can easily be startled by hard touches from little ones. Hector may be best suited for a home with kids 10+, old enough to understand, and work around his deafness. Hector will be a perfect match for you if: you’ve recently taken up the tuba and aren’t very good yet, frequently host, only drive with loud music, or live in a busy city. Actually, Hector would LOVE living in an ultra-urban area- new friends on all of his walks, tons of scents to sniff and lots of things to do? Sign him up! If you’re looking for a sweet, smart boy with SO much love to give, Hector is your guy. This boy is SO good. We are willing to test this handsome little guy with anything you need us to in order to ensure he’s the perfect match for you. If you have any questions about him, please reach out to his adoption coordinator, who would be thrilled to have a discussion with you about this sweet angel boy. Meet Hector Zeroni in person in Friendswood, Texas, or virtually via video chat to get to know him better. Please email priya@threelittlepittiesrescue.org with any questions.

We call him Sammy, but maybe you can call him yours? Sammy is simply so sweet! We can’t get an enough of this boy. We’re thinking Sammy is somewhere in between part bunny and part couch potato. His little bunny hops are adorable, you may catch him on the basketball court. I’m sure the NBA could use someone like him. I think Sammy is probably happiest with a toy in his mouth. I don’t know which he is better at, fetch or tug-of-war? I guess you will just have to find out for yourself. Don’t let his athleticism fool you, he would definitely cuddle allllll day long if you let him. He is friendly with everyone he meets, and he loves doggies of all shapes and sizes. Sammy is just a catch! Are you ready to meet the love of your life? What are you waiting for, he’s right here! See Sammy in action here: https://youtu.be/0xZQXhejbvA?si=6G2CmoBHEx-7yUlD Sammy currently lives with small, medium, and large dogs and he is respectful of all of them! He lets them sniff his toys, bones, and food without a care in the world. We can see Sammy in a home with other dogs because of his love to play! He could use a yard to play in or going on a couple of walks each day to get his energy out. Sammy still has all of the puppy love and energy we know all too well, so a yard for him to zoom in is something everyone would prefer! However, he still does well with his older foster siblings that don’t love to play as well! Sammy will entertain himself, jumping up onto the couch with a chew toy and watching some TV. So Sammy could really make himself at home anywhere he goes! Sammy loves treats, so we see future training being simple for him! In his foster home, they have “banana time” where Sammy shares and takes turns taking bites from a banana with his siblings. He is extremely patient and waits his turn with ease, sitting attentively. His foster has done a fantastic job of teaching him to wait by the door before his walks. He also does well in his crate and eats in his crate. He does best with rubber toys or durable toys, because let’s face it— sending stuffing everywhere is just too dang fun! Maybe he is pretending he is on vacation somewhere cold, so he needs the fluffy snow to go with it! With this Texas heat, we can’t blame the guy for tryin.

Maribella is ready to be your family dog. She could be the perfect running partner, dog park going, play date loving best friend you never knew you needed. She can also just be your quiet napping companion while you work. Or your cuddle buddy/little spoon! She loves to check in with her people, making sure she is behaving and coming in for a boop here and there. She is trainable simply because of her people pleasing nature. She loves to boop people and other doggies with her cute nose rather than give kisses. It’s so funny! We love everything about this girl from her blue grey coat to her little cow lick down the top of her neck! She’s super soft and she has a little bit of a ridge down her back! Watch Maribella here: https://youtu.be/f9fzCgCaJDU?si=yblJtVDDTQwy9rep Maribella is great in the house and not destructive. She is quiet, not a lot of barking or whining, acts like she has lived in a home environment previously and has very good manners. She does not have any accidents in her kennel or free roaming from what we’ve seen. While her foster works on the computer she is a good girl and naps on the floor. She would make a perfect work from home companion! When you’re sitting there working on your computer every once in a while, she will want to show love, so she will jump up to give you a hug or she will try to slowly crawl into your lap. She is extremely loving and affectionate. She knows how to sit on command and loves rolling onto her back for belly rubs. This girl loves meeting new doggy friends. She gets really excited at first, so give her a chance to show you what a good girl she is. She has more of a rowdy play style, so we could see her fitting in a home with higher energy doggy siblings, or dogs that don’t mind showing her the right ways to behave. She became instant best friends with the dogs she met here at the rescue. Maribella loves praise more than anything in the world, so she will often look to her people to get approval throughout play time, which is great! She will be very tuned in with her person, whoever that may be. Could it be you? Maribella is one of those girls that is going to be deeply loyal, caring, and attentive to her family. She does all of this while still being respectful of new people without being overly eager. Maribella is very gentle with kids! She hung out with her fosters son, age 7 and seemed very comfortable from the beginning. With no hesitation at all, she wanted to give him kisses. She’s pretty confident, she doesn’t seem scared of anything, including when her fosters young son was throwing a balloon around in the air and hitting her with it. Her tail continued to wag. We could see her being a family dog with kids. She’s extremely affectionate, she’ll slip in gentle kisses here and there. Maribella really wants to hug you and she’ll put her head on your shoulder for a really long hug if you will have her. She will look up at you with her puppy dog eyes looking into yours, and wants to give and get love. Even with strangers that she meets out in public. She loves everyone she meets, especially the attendants working at pet stores because she knows they have all the tasty treats and are definitely dog lovers. Speaking of public outings, Maribella loves to be social and go places. Some of her favorite places are the local neighborhood park and the pet store! She loves going to the park and seeing all the squirrels (she dreams about chasing them), and watching all the passerby’s and smelling all the smells. She does good with other dogs passing her or when there is another dog near by not was she startled or concerned about joggers, mom’s passing by with strollers, kids saying hello to her, or even the excitement at the splash pad area. She was just a sweet little lady happy to be out enjoying the sunshine. We are happy to test this girl with nothing you need us to in order to ensure it’s a perfect match.

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 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 $1,120. 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 fee are costs to cover transport up to the Pacific Northwest or East Coast. While adoption fees help cover part of these expenses, we want to emphasize that Three Little Pitties Rescue is not government funded. It doesn’t stop there!

Let me take a second to introduce you to Kelso. He’s got everything you want: he’s funny, he’s chill, he’s handsome, he’s dog friendly, and even cat friendly! He’s an absolute winner and we give him 5 gold stars! He’s described as an old soul in a puppy body. We believe Kelso is some sort of Labrador/ Pittie mix. With rescue this is just our best guess, but we can tell you he’s 100% a good boy. He is just over 7 months old, but he is extremely well mannered. He likes to read the room, and it may take him a second to warm up— but not that long! After no time he will be asking for some attention and belly rubs. He is so curious and likes to stop and smell the roses. Kelso the explorer! Watch Kelso's video here: https://youtu.be/y9g4Eh-GxLg?si=ACnYUg3WDReHSBYt Kelso would thrive in a household with another dog. He really looks to other dogs for companionship and guidance. This handsome fellow is very clever and learns quickly, and he is very food-motivated and will do almost anything for a treat! Kelso has been around and does great with the cats and kittens in his foster home. He has learned which ones he can socialize with and which ones he needs to stay away from. Kelso is very good about sleeping in his kennel at night, and goes to his kennel on his own for naps or to chew on his favorite toy. He's not destructive and has been trusted to free-roam with the other pets when his foster parents leave. This clever boy has already mastered the doggy door and going out to potty. This amazing fellow has not had any accidents in months! Kelso loves to go on walks with his dog friends. He does very well on leash and enjoys a leisurely stroll. Kelso loves to play in the backyard too, running around with his dog friends and his toys. We love to see him stretching out to sunbathe! He is also a great rider in the car and enjoys a good outing. This soft and snuggly boy has the most distinctive coat of black and brown (almost brindle but not quite) that simply shines in the sun. His soft brown eyes are so expressive and will communicate everything you need to know. Kelso will win your heart slowly but surely - he is cautious and shy at first but soon opens up to all the pets, and a few soft stuffies and chew toys would be appreciated here too, and go ahead and throw in some treats for this positively very good boy. Kelso melts right into you with behind-the-ear scratches and snuggles, and we love to see him stretch out and relax once he gets comfy. We think Kelso looks quite regal with his pop of white at his chest and all four feet (and don't forget that wisp of white at his chin). This handsome fellow is ready to attend any formal event...whether it's in a soft and fluffy dog bed or your living room, Kelso is dressed for every occasion! Kelso is already living his best life - all he needs now is YOU! If you're looking for a sweet, silly, treat-loving sidekick who’s just as happy romping in the yard as he is napping in the sun — Kelso might just be your perfect match.

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 $900.00 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 or the NE 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 6 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.

There are nothing but great things to say about this girl. Let me tell you about Lane Boots! First you must know—It’s snuggling season— and Lane got the memo! This sweet girl is an avid fan of couch snuggles and sweet little love sessions, she could lay with you all day, enjoying belly rubs and ear scritches. Lane is the perfect best friend- loving, loyal and always excited to see you. Meeting Lane feels like you’ve known her forever, and I promise you will be wanting to be her forever very soon. Lane is an itty bitty baby dog, she weighs in around 50 pounds, a total “pocket pittie” type. Lane is estimated to be around 2 years old, and she has so much to show for it. She’s attentive to her people, easy on leash and has great house manners. She’s spent her lifetime studying up to be your perfect dog! We believe Lane to be an American Pit Bull Terrier, Labrador mix, but she is a rescue so these are just our best guesses. One thing is for sure, she is 100% a good girl. Fall in love with Lane here: https://youtu.be/1QOK9ZgF_qs?si=X8Ric5fPlrJ6wZxX The first thing people notice about Lane is her beautiful heterochromatic eyes, one blue and one brown. The second thing people notice about Lane is that she is already in their lap, midway through a bellyrub, and also kissing them. This girl is so, so warm and friendly with everyone she meets. She’s a complete lovebug. She is a great match for any socially active household, big family or extended friend group- the more the merrier, Lane says! She absolutely adores kids too. A 5 year old spent over a hour with Lane, snuggling on the couch with her, giving big bear hugs, and of course sharing a few treats as well. Lane was living her best life with her new friend, playing dress up and getting a good grooming! She would love nothing more than to be a family dog. We think she would be happy doing nothing with you. Lane would totally be down to watch your favorite show on the couch on a stormy night. Or maybe even join in on a family game night! Lane will look up and smile at you when she’s happy, showing her little teefies in gratitude and appreciation. It’s the cutest thing about her! She loves to be talked to, and she’ll stick right by your side when you walk around the yard. For affection, Lane will lean into you, suggesting some pets. On leash, when you’re stopped, she has an adorable habit of sitting down and looking up at her handler, asking for affection. Lane has so many makings of a great dog already. She’s food motivated and affection motivated, making further training enjoyable and rewarding for both of you. Lane already knows “sit,” and she’s working on “lay down,” and “roll over.” See her show off her skills for yourself in her video! Lane is a very fast learner, submissive with people, and very respectful of rules. Lane is really easy on leash already, and a huge fan of walks. She loves to sniff around, and here at the rescue she hasn’t been fazed by passing cars. Here at the rescue, we’ve noticed that Lane prefers calmer dogs and she does well with small dogs too. She could do well in a home with a stable, relaxed doggy sibling. She is also cat tolerant! She finds kitties very interesting though. So it’s probably best for lane to not live with cats. However, on your daily stroll she won’t mind if you spot a cat across the street. Lane is a respectful little lady after all. Lane would love a home with a yard to sunbathe in. She would love a home with ample couch space, the couch is her favorite place to be! Ready to welcome a new furry friend into your life?
