Story
If you love camping, hiking, lake days and park hangs, you’re already living the Loki lifestyle!
Loki is a gorgeous Husky mix, estimated to be 3 years old and currently weighing in around 61 pounds. He is of course a rescue, so these are only our best guesses. He’s got stamina, and he’s a ton of fun, but he’s not your typical over-the-top high energy Husky, he’s more of a medium energy guy.

Loki is an adventure dog to his core. He’s friendly with everyone he meets, and very tolerant. He’s amazing on leash and knows how to walk on a regular leash or with head collar/gentle leader. He’s awesome in the car and lays down in the back of his foster family’s SUV. With his foster family, he regularly walks three to five miles in a day and adores his outside time. They take him camping and swimming, and he enjoys every second of it. Loki is a really cool dog, just always up for anything and ready to have a good time. He’s exceptionally confident in everything he does, and ready for a lifetime of adventure with you.
When we asked his foster mom about him, she described him as “everything everyone loves about Huskies.” She says he’s adventurous, loving, loyal and so happy go lucky. She says he’s incredibly smart and receptive to training. He knows “heel,” “sit,” and “slow,” and to the benefit of outdoor adventurists everywhere, he knows “wait.” She says this command will stop him in his tracks, reliably. This command is crucial for new hikes with tight corners, hill crests or new flora and fauna! While Loki can be vocal, his foster mom says it’s not your typical continual husky vocalizations, it’s never too much for her family or neighbors to handle!
Loki is a canine socialite if we’ve ever seen one. This guy is a pro with every dog he meets, he can play hard or just coexist and does a great job knowing when the time is right for either. He regularly goes to dog parks with his foster family, and enjoys doggy daycare from time to time. When we met Loki, we had a chance to see him greet three new dogs, and he was perfect with everyone. An opinionated Husky boy named Daffy enjoyed zooming with him. Our confident female Kelpie mix was greeted politely by him, and they lightly played chase. He simply coexisted with our smaller Bully mix Willow. Loki is also fostered with a sometimes-playful female Shepherd mix, the two are the best of friends. We think a medium energy female like her would be a great doggy sibling match for him in a forever home.
Loki is a superstar in so many ways. He shares toys and treats with other dogs with ease. He loves to play the first half of fetch- the chasing the ball bit- but he hasn’t mastered the “bringing it back,” portion quite yet. He’s used to the active lifestyle and does well in all public settings, from patio restaurants to wildflower fields on the side of the highway. If you’ve been daydreaming of an adventure filled life with your newly adopted pup- know that most will need lots of time to learn, but Loki is already ready to go.
Loki has his backpack ready and his Nalgene filled, he’s ready to come home with you! We think he would be happiest somewhere where he can stretch his legs, in a house with lots of room to roam and keep busy. He’s an active guy, so an active family would be best for him. While we haven’t seen him with kids just yet, we suspect this guy will be a great family dog. At this time, we don’t recommend him for a home with kitties. We are willing to test Loki with anything you need us to in order to ensure he is the perfect match for you! We can make most anything happen! Just let us know.

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!

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.

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.
