Story
Egret is a beautiful white dog with a regal presence. His looks and demeanor let us believe he is a unique blend of Dogo Argentino and Rhodesian Ridgeback but with a rescue this is at best, an educated guess. No matter what breed make-up he is, Egret can be best be described as calm and collected. See Egret in action here https://youtu.be/9zBw-Yw-gKE This 4-year-old, 50 lb rescued boy has a sweet-natured soul and a heart full of love. A happy home life may gain him a few pounds but he is expected to settle in between 55-60 lbs, a great medium size. He has young dog energy in small bursts, and would benefit from being in a home with a yard that will allow him to explore and run around freely. Egrets sweetness makes him a perfect candidate for the role of a family dog, as he is great with kids! He is learning leash manners and knows a few basic tricks and we anticipate training will be easy as he is very responsive to treats and praise from his person. He is great with other dogs, of all sizes, offering an aloof personality to interactions, he will rarely be the one to initiate play but is happy to engage when prompted. This energy and style of play would be a great fit for a family with existing pets- a limited ability dog or one that has a more playful personality who will naturally initiate play. When meeting the rescues resident house cats, Egret was initially respectful but quickly became overly interested, so it would be best for him to be in a feline-free home. Egret is a true lover of the belly rub! He loves lounging around and enjoying moments of relaxation with his humans. Whether it's a quiet evening on the couch or playtime in the backyard, Egret will be a happy boy as long as he has a warm family to spend his days with. His current foster reports that he is both house and crate trained and we expect him to bring these skills to his new home but it is possible he will need your support as he transitions and adapts to a new space and routine. All of these wonderful qualities are wrapped up in an eye-catching, graceful and sleek physique with distinctive features. Truly a one-of-a-kind companion! Egret is in good health, up-to-date on vaccinations, and has been neutered. He has received wonderful care during his time in rescue and is ready to embark on a new chapter with a forever family. With Egret by your side, you'll experience the unconditional love and companionship that only a four-legged rescued friend can provide.

Story
The moment I met this dog, I immediately fell in love. Hondo Lane is one of those special dogs you don't come across often. He is so loving and loyal. Instantly felt comfortable with him and wanted to take him home. He really is a great well rounded dog that you don't want to miss out on. One of my favorite things about him is how gentle and respectful he is. Inside the house was very mindful of his surroundings and also would drop his toys every time you would approach and he was calm in the house. He also loves to give hugs which made my heart melt. Watch his video here: https://youtu.be/S9YSM8Rmw2w?si=Youj_P_0mZfblux- Hondo Lane is a Pittie mix approximately 2 years old and currently weighs 67 lbs. He's a big boy and we believe he is full grown! We do not expect him to get much bigger if at all. He is a rescue dog and with any rescue, it's always a mystery and we cannot guarantee breed or age. We can guarantee that you'll be gaining a loyal companion by adopting Hondo. He is very dog friendly and loves to play and run around with his doggie friends. Hondo is also respectful to dogs that don't want to play, although he may give it a few attempts to try to play with them. After a few attempts at trying to get the other dogs to play with him, he just wondered around the yard, exploring with the rest of them until we brought out a playful dog for him to play with and then he was in heaven. He does has energy and will do best in a home with another moderately playful dog and in a home with a backyard. He would also do great with a family that likes to go on adventures. He is fairly easy to walk on a leash and only needs a few corrections here and there but he would make a great hiking or even running companion. Hondo seems to already have great house manners as well. He instantly knew when to settle down in the home and he was a very respectful young man in the house. He wasn't jumping all over the place or getting into things he wasn't suppose to be. He loved being on the couch and taking he kept taking his toys back to the couch to burry them in the pillows and he loved our super soft plushy pillow. It was like his favorite thing ever. I don't think he's ever felt something so soft before and he kept nuzzling his whole head into it and being so goofy. He also did this with plushy dog toys. So that might be a requirement for him. Must buy him plushy dog toys. Hondo has to much personality and he does the cutest little hops right before he gets his toys and it's adorable. To our knowledge, he is crate trained and potty trained but may need a reminder about where the appropriate potty places are once in his home. Hondo is treat motivated and very eager to please his humans which will help make any additional training that much easier. We are willing to test Hondo Lane with anything you need us to in order to ensure it’s the perfect match for you! We can make anything happen! Just let us know.

Story
Sweet, sweet Selma, the girl who loves everyone with enthusiasm, is ready for her forever home. Just look into those big brown eyes and your heart will be mush. With this cutie around, you will never feel lonely because she will want to be with you every chance she gets. We estimate Selma is about 1 year old and possibly a Boxer and Shepherd mix, but with rescue that’s just our best guess. She currently weighs around 50 lbs but her weight is still balancing back out after having puppies. She has been a wonderful mom to her sweet babies, but now she’s ready to enjoy the empty nest. A social butterfly through and through, she’s never met a human she doesn’t like. Yelling, crying, rambunctious kids? No problem! She is hungry for affection and is happy to get it from any human willing to dish it out. Kitties are no-go for this cutie. Selma is a bit unsure when meeting new doggy friends, but she warms up quickly. She doesn’t seem to have a lot of experience playing with other dogs, but she’s learning quickly in our play groups. She prefers to play one-on-one, or in small groups, rather than large groups. She could be happy as an only dog, or with a male doggy sibling who is either calm or moderately playful. Selma was found as a pregnant stray, and it appears she may have been a stray for a while. She is very eager to eat any food she can, and will try to steal food from the counter or your hands. She hasn’t learned to take treats gently yet. She is equally hungry for love and will jump up for affection. Can you blame a girl for wanting love and snacks? What girl isn’t hungry for love and snacks, really? Pretty easy on a leash, she’ll be great to take on walks. She does love to stop and smell the roses, and she would love to sniff every dog she passes too, but she doesn’t pull hard and is pretty easy to correct. She is potty trained and crate trained, although she may need a little patience learning a new environment. Selma is a very happy-go-lucky, pie in the sky kind of girl. She’s a little silly and incredibly affectionate. If you have endless love and snacks to give, she will reward you with all of her love and devotion. Apply now to bring this cutie home! Currently fostered in Texas, she is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and ready to travel to their forever home in the PNW or NE areas.

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. 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 just celebrated 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 11,000 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.
