Story
The best snuggles are Shepherd snuggles, without a doubt!
Juno is a loving, sweet girl estimated to be just 1 year old. She currently weighs in at 51 pounds, and we think she’s a German Shepherd mix, but of course with rescue it’s always a guess!
Fall in love with Juno here: https://youtu.be/6YTs8cAPdg8?feature=shared
Currently fostered in a loving home, Juno resides with her foster parents and four other dogs. Her foster parents have nothing but great things to say about her, and report her to be a very loyal and loving well behaved lady. She does wonderfully in her crate, and sleeps through the night in her little personal bedroom. She knows “sit” with a snap command, and she’s amazing on leash. Juno is even good in the bath, she’s had two baths so far in her foster home and she’s been perfect for both.
With her foster doggy siblings, Juno is perfectly sweet and respectful. Her foster parents say she’s submissive with the other dogs in the home, including two small terrier mixes. When we had the opportunity to see Juno meet new dogs, she was perfectly polite with them as well. She met a happy, playful female Kelpie mix and while she didn’t want to play, she was happy to hang out. She was so tolerant with a pushy, playful, persistent Husky mix too! She wasn’t even intimidated by his Husky vocalization. She handled the playful, higher energy dogs like a champ, but we think her best doggy-sibling match is a calm, low energy dog!
We also had an opportunity to see Juno meet a kitty! She passed her cat test no problem, our behavior team recommends a home with a calm, dog-savvy kitty.
The thing about Juno that impressed us most was her leash walking skills! This girl is great on leash, and walkies are the key to her heart. Tandem walks help her get comfy with new dogs, walks around the block with you will strengthen your bond. This girl loves the leash!
Juno is ready for her forever home. While we haven’t seen her with kids just yet, we have a sneaking suspicion she’ll love them. She’s ready to live with other dogs or cats, but she’s confident enough to thrive as a solo-dog. Juno is a gentle sweet girl, we think she would prefer a calmer home free from the hustle and bustle of shared walls and close neighbors. A yard would make her heart so happy, but she’s so good on leash that a fenced yard is not a necessity for this perfect pooch. We are willing to test Juno with anything you need us to in order to ensure she is the perfect match for you! We can make most anything happen! Just let us know.

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!

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.
