Hi, I’m Fern! Honestly, I answer mostly to squeaky toys and snack bags right now. I’m a 14-week-old puppy, probably a Boxer/Shepherd mix (your guess is as good as ours), and I’m in full bloom — the wiggly, bouncy, endlessly curious kind. Like any good plant, I thrive on love, attention, and a little structure to help me grow strong. I’m playful, sweet, and very into my people. I’ll follow you around the house like a sunflower chasing sunlight and melt into your arms when it’s time to rest. I don’t know much yet — I’m still figuring out this whole “being a dog” thing — but I’m eager to learn and always down for a challenge (especially if treats are involved). I’ll need plenty of training, consistency, and patience as I grow. Right now, I’m basically a tiny tornado of paws and promise. But with the right care? I’ll grow into something really special. So if you're ready to raise a puppy, get your hands a little dirty, and help something wild and wonderful take root — I just might be your girl. Let’s grow together. I weigh 15 pounds and my adoption fee is $300, it includes registration of my microchip, a sample of my food, new leash/collar and toy & treat packet. I am spayed and vaccinated.

Story
Take a second to sit back & relax, meet Molly Mae! Molly went on an exciting road trip with her foster brother last year in hopes to find her forever family. Although she hasn’t found them just yet, we know they are out there somewhere! On her trip, Molly traveled over 3,600 miles in a car. Woah!! Not only is she totally interesting and ready to share all of her world traveling stories with you, but she’s most of all looking for love. The first thing you will notice about this girl is how intelligent she is. Molly is also nothing short of an impressive performance dog with her sit, down, and touch skills. She also has amazing recall, and has mastered “heel” and “leave it” when she passes by other dogs on her daily walks. Molly is a big fan of her daily routine, and she hopes you will help her create a new one in her new home. The girl knows what she likes! Molly also loves a good game of fetch— she will bring the ball back and drop it! Calling all shepherd lovers, because this girls personality will need someone familiar with this breed! Is that you? Meet Molly girl here! https://youtu.be/HcIpX_lDnhQ?si=6Ig_X8KZRPgQYMf- Molly has so many good qualities to her. She is great in her crate, and best of all she is quiet in there too! She is calm and relaxed when you take her out. When you want her to go back in she just walks right in! She is very food motivated and loves a good treat (don’t we all!). She even let a 4 year old train her! She sat for him, and waited patiently for him to share some of his yummy cheese stick. Molly is not the jumping around ball of energy type, she is respectful of her surroundings and the people in it! Little tiny kids can be a little overwhelming with all of the bouncing and kid friendly chaos, so we believe Molly would do better with kids 7 years and up. Or children that will be able to understand her boundaries. Family coming over to visit with younger kids should not be a problem for her, this is just something she prefers! Mollys interest in treats would make for a super fun training session! Molly is the perfect example of a dog that is just happy to be with you, no matter where you are. Molly really likes to bond with her people. She is so loyal and loving, when her forever family comes to get her I have no doubt it will be the happiest day of her life! She would be happy to stay home and put around the backyard too! Speaking of homes and yards, this girl needs one! Having a structured area for her to play and mosey around in would be her dream. Molly does not need another dog in the home, but if she were to have one she prefers to be with more submissive, medium energy males that will participate in her similar play style. Molly can be a little rowdy with her best friend sometimes, but it’s all fun and games. Molly would be perfectly content being your one and only too! No kitty cats for this queen, they are just way too fun to chase and bark at. Her ideal family would be those that love some good quality time. We could totally see her hanging out at the backyard barbecue hoping you’ll slip her a little something under the table. When this girl falls for you, she falls hard. If only we could all be so lucky to have a best friend like her. Are you ready to add the perfect loyal companion to your life? Apply for her today! https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/animal/62cc8e128b02916730334440/680a6339fe589ad4230a2f7b Questions? Ask: KatiaK@threelittlepittiesrescue.org We facilitate adoptions across the US through our own internal transport to ensure the quality of care.

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!

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!

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.

Story
If you appreciate the softer things in life, then you will definitely love our friend, Faith. Faith is the type of girl who makes beauty out of the mild glimmers of the world. Her eyes are soft and hold a depth that you can’t help but want to discover. Even her ears flop a bit and showcase how wonderfully unique and special she is. We believe that Faith is around a year old and a shepherd mix of some sort. She weighs approximately 46 pounds and is a growing girl. She has the most beautiful earthy soft color palate of a coat. She's a moment of fresh air and sweetness. Due to her being a rescue, age and breed cannot be guaranteed. But nevertheless, Faith is a girl that you definitely want to meet! Meet Faith here: https://youtu.be/Z5HSy-mBFZk During our first introductions, Faith was a proper lady. She wasn’t intrusive with her greeting or eager to jump all over you! She’s definitely a polite girl who doesn’t want to come across as overbearing or desperate for attention. She observes new humans respectfully for a moment before letting her true, beautiful personality shine. And accepting gentle love to match her gentle energy. What was a beautiful thing to experience was watching Faith blossom when the other dogs came into the yard to meet her. The timidity slowly melted away and her playful nature came out to shine with tail wags and a game of follow the leader! Faith lives at home with a variety of foster dog siblings of various ages and breeds and sizes. She’s definitely a dog’s dog and would do well with other medium energy dogs that will give her the moments she needs to bloom in her future home. When it comes to cats, Faith is calm but very interested in feline friends. She doesn’t live with any cats, but when she met our housecat Biggie, she gave him lots and lots of cautiously curious sniffs. It was actually the most interested I had seen her the entire visit! As sweet as she is, due to her peaked interest in kitties, it would be best if she was in a home with no cats. We understand the importance of precious personal space for our kitty friends. Even when she met our big boys Blaze and Xen (9) she was just as mild mannered and gentle with them. She didn’t overbear them with wild energy and jumps. She just let them pet her and was patient as they doted on her. She would do well in a home with bigger, older kids who can respect the needs of a polite, medium energy, canine lady. Do you have a younger, smaller child that you would be interested in seeing how Faith would interact with? Feel free to let us know and we will see how she does! We want to make sure that she is the PERFECT pal for your family! As I stated before, Faith is still a growing girl and needs space to stretch out those long graceful legs and run when she feels like it. A home with a yard would suit her better over an apartment lifestyle. She is the perfect girl to lounge around the house with as she is reminisces on the beauty of a simple life. Faith carries this aura that makes everyone around her feel at ease. Dog’s love her, cats trust her, and humans can’t help but appreciate her presence. She is going to be a great addition to a family who just wants that peaceful energy to grow in their home. Is Faith your missing “peace”?

Story
Hi, I’m Fern! Honestly, I answer mostly to squeaky toys and snack bags right now. I’m a 14-week-old puppy, probably a Boxer/Shepherd mix (your guess is as good as ours), and I’m in full bloom — the wiggly, bouncy, endlessly curious kind. Like any good plant, I thrive on love, attention, and a little structure to help me grow strong. I’m playful, sweet, and very into my people. I’ll follow you around the house like a sunflower chasing sunlight and melt into your arms when it’s time to rest. I don’t know much yet — I’m still figuring out this whole “being a dog” thing — but I’m eager to learn and always down for a challenge (especially if treats are involved). I’ll need plenty of training, consistency, and patience as I grow. Right now, I’m basically a tiny tornado of paws and promise. But with the right care? I’ll grow into something really special. So if you're ready to raise a puppy, get your hands a little dirty, and help something wild and wonderful take root — I just might be your girl. Let’s grow together. I weigh 15 pounds and my adoption fee is $300, it includes registration of my microchip, a sample of my food, new leash/collar and toy & treat packet. I am spayed and vaccinated.

💖 Carie Hartt: Ready to BlossomMeet Carie Hartt, a beautiful Shepherd mix who arrived at the shelter as a stray and is looking for a gentle home to help her shine! Carie is a little timid right now, which is understandable given her journey, but she is also showing a wonderful curiosity about the world around her.She just needs a patient family who can provide a quiet, safe space where she can decompress and get comfortable at her own pace. We are confident that once she settles in and starts to trust, her true, loving personality will emerge. Could you be the calm presence Carie needs to warm up and become your devoted companion?

Story
Take a second to sit back & relax, meet Molly Mae! Molly went on an exciting road trip with her foster brother last year in hopes to find her forever family. Although she hasn’t found them just yet, we know they are out there somewhere! On her trip, Molly traveled over 3,600 miles in a car. Woah!! Not only is she totally interesting and ready to share all of her world traveling stories with you, but she’s most of all looking for love. The first thing you will notice about this girl is how intelligent she is. Molly is also nothing short of an impressive performance dog with her sit, down, and touch skills. She also has amazing recall, and has mastered “heel” and “leave it” when she passes by other dogs on her daily walks. Molly is a big fan of her daily routine, and she hopes you will help her create a new one in her new home. The girl knows what she likes! Molly also loves a good game of fetch— she will bring the ball back and drop it! Calling all shepherd lovers, because this girls personality will need someone familiar with this breed! Is that you? Meet Molly girl here! https://youtu.be/HcIpX_lDnhQ?si=6Ig_X8KZRPgQYMf- Molly has so many good qualities to her. She is great in her crate, and best of all she is quiet in there too! She is calm and relaxed when you take her out. When you want her to go back in she just walks right in! She is very food motivated and loves a good treat (don’t we all!). She even let a 4 year old train her! She sat for him, and waited patiently for him to share some of his yummy cheese stick. Molly is not the jumping around ball of energy type, she is respectful of her surroundings and the people in it! Little tiny kids can be a little overwhelming with all of the bouncing and kid friendly chaos, so we believe Molly would do better with kids 7 years and up. Or children that will be able to understand her boundaries. Family coming over to visit with younger kids should not be a problem for her, this is just something she prefers! Mollys interest in treats would make for a super fun training session! Molly is the perfect example of a dog that is just happy to be with you, no matter where you are. Molly really likes to bond with her people. She is so loyal and loving, when her forever family comes to get her I have no doubt it will be the happiest day of her life! She would be happy to stay home and put around the backyard too! Speaking of homes and yards, this girl needs one! Having a structured area for her to play and mosey around in would be her dream. Molly does not need another dog in the home, but if she were to have one she prefers to be with more submissive, medium energy males that will participate in her similar play style. Molly can be a little rowdy with her best friend sometimes, but it’s all fun and games. Molly would be perfectly content being your one and only too! No kitty cats for this queen, they are just way too fun to chase and bark at. Her ideal family would be those that love some good quality time. We could totally see her hanging out at the backyard barbecue hoping you’ll slip her a little something under the table. When this girl falls for you, she falls hard. If only we could all be so lucky to have a best friend like her. Are you ready to add the perfect loyal companion to your life? Apply for her today! https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/animal/62cc8e128b02916730334440/680a6339fe589ad4230a2f7b Questions?

Story
If you appreciate the softer things in life, then you will definitely love our friend, Faith. Faith is the type of girl who makes beauty out of the mild glimmers of the world. Her eyes are soft and hold a depth that you can’t help but want to discover. Even her ears flop a bit and showcase how wonderfully unique and special she is. We believe that Faith is around a year old and a shepherd mix of some sort. She weighs approximately 46 pounds and is a growing girl. She has the most beautiful earthy soft color palate of a coat. She's a moment of fresh air and sweetness. Due to her being a rescue, age and breed cannot be guaranteed. But nevertheless, Faith is a girl that you definitely want to meet! Meet Faith here: https://youtu.be/Z5HSy-mBFZk During our first introductions, Faith was a proper lady. She wasn’t intrusive with her greeting or eager to jump all over you! She’s definitely a polite girl who doesn’t want to come across as overbearing or desperate for attention. She observes new humans respectfully for a moment before letting her true, beautiful personality shine. And accepting gentle love to match her gentle energy. What was a beautiful thing to experience was watching Faith blossom when the other dogs came into the yard to meet her. The timidity slowly melted away and her playful nature came out to shine with tail wags and a game of follow the leader! Faith lives at home with a variety of foster dog siblings of various ages and breeds and sizes. She’s definitely a dog’s dog and would do well with other medium energy dogs that will give her the moments she needs to bloom in her future home. When it comes to cats, Faith is calm but very interested in feline friends. She doesn’t live with any cats, but when she met our housecat Biggie, she gave him lots and lots of cautiously curious sniffs. It was actually the most interested I had seen her the entire visit! As sweet as she is, due to her peaked interest in kitties, it would be best if she was in a home with no cats. We understand the importance of precious personal space for our kitty friends. Even when she met our big boys Blaze and Xen (9) she was just as mild mannered and gentle with them. She didn’t overbear them with wild energy and jumps. She just let them pet her and was patient as they doted on her. She would do well in a home with bigger, older kids who can respect the needs of a polite, medium energy, canine lady. Do you have a younger, smaller child that you would be interested in seeing how Faith would interact with? Feel free to let us know and we will see how she does! We want to make sure that she is the PERFECT pal for your family! As I stated before, Faith is still a growing girl and needs space to stretch out those long graceful legs and run when she feels like it. A home with a yard would suit her better over an apartment lifestyle. She is the perfect girl to lounge around the house with as she is reminisces on the beauty of a simple life. Faith carries this aura that makes everyone around her feel at ease. Dog’s love her, cats trust her, and humans can’t help but appreciate her presence. She is going to be a great addition to a family who just wants that peaceful energy to grow in their home. Is Faith your missing “peace”?

Meet Eva Duffy! She is currently 3 months old, 13 pounds, and we think she may be a German Sheperd / Labrador Retriever mix, but with rescue it’s always a guess! This puppy is from a part of the US where puppies are regularly euthanized. So, this puppy needs you! If you choose a puppy from this rescue, it saves their life AND it also allows us to save the life of another in its place. Watch Eva's video here: https://youtu.be/EYeKEL4DDIc Eva is currently in a loving foster home and loves to play and take lots of naps! Eat, sleep, play, repeat. Eva is living her best puppy life right now - all she needs is YOU! Eva is still young so she will need a family that can commit to training, socialization and all the dedication puppyhood requires. Eva's new family will need to continue with potty and crate training and daily exercise. We require a commitment from adoptive families to crate train their new puppy. When old enough, they will be perfect to go on walks and hikes or show off around your neighborhood. You will be guaranteed to get lots of kisses in return from your new best friend! Application link: https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/animal/62cc8e128b02916730334440/682e1f3572f90ff1a603d36f Please email tim@threelittlepittiesrescue.org with any questions. 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 7 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.

Belgian Malinois Mix 2 years old Male 63 pounds Kids · 10+ Dogs · Dog selective Cats · No What My Friends Say About Me: Whether it’s zooming around the park or playing fetch until my tail can’t wag anymore, I’m always up for an adventure! There’s nothing better than curling up next to you after a fun-filled day. I promise to shower you with love! I’m eager to learn and would thrive with positive reinforcement training. The Type of Home I’m Looking For: I prefer to be your one and only furry friend, as I’m not really a fan of sharing my home with other dogs. I’m not a fan of cats or small animals, so it’s probably best if we skip them altogether! I’d do best in a home with kids over 10 years old. My adoption fee is $240 and includes neuter, microchip & registration, leash/collar, food sample, toy & treat packet.

Story
Angelina the ballerina is her name and she is as sweet as the name makes her sound. She is a gentle girl with a soft side for people and a budding love for toys. Her favorite toy? Hmmm… a tennis ball or stuffie are the top contenders but she wants to try them all before giving you her final decision. Take a look at her in action then come back to read more- https://youtu.be/ykeiiKruv10 Angelina is estimated to be around 6 months old and she currently weighs an absolutely adorable 21 lbs. She may be a shepherd mix but in rescue both age and breed are details we cannot guarantee. She isn’t full-grown yet but we anticipate she will be somewhere near 50lbs as an adult. Angelina has the slightest bit of shyness in new environments, she is young after all so it is understandable. Angelina loves the company of a confident dog and is an ideal +1 pal if you are here looking for a buddy for your current dog. When introduced to new dogs she a touch shy but that quickly melted into fun. Within five minutes she was playing chase and bouncing around as happy-go-lucky as could be. Angelina has solid basic leash skills and is very attentive, pair that with her age and she is prime for learning and training. The favorite time I spent with Angelina was once we were inside where she warmed up to a group of people who had all come to visit her. She played with a tennis ball, greeted everyone, and happily enjoyed some treats. While inside we did get to hear her “voice.” Whether she is just talkative or was responding to a dog outside, her vocal side means apartment life isn’t for her. Basically, she would love a home with a yard where she can sniff around, sunbathe, and enjoy her favorite toys without the busy nature or noise complaints of apartment life. This girl is all heart and has so much love to give. With a little patience and a lot of love, Angelina is going to be the loyal, fun-loving companion dreams are made of! Questions?

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?
