Story
This petite and precious boy is named Pepe. Pepe is a rarity in the rescue world- a rescue dog with a history that we actually know some details of! Pepe’s past life was spent with a retired couple, that spent most of their time at home with him. That’s the life that Pepe wants, a quiet and simple life with preferably older people. He wants to be the baby of the house, spoiled, loved and pampered.

We think Pepe is a Jack Russel, Chihuahua mix of some sort, around 4 years old. He is a rescue, so his exact age and breed are unknown and cannot be guaranteed.
Pepe is warm and friendly with strangers, and used to having friends and family in the house. Pepe is not accustomed to children, so we would not recommend him for a home with kids. He does well in public, and is easy on leash.
Pepe is dog friendly, but slow introductions are recommended. Here at the rescue he did well meeting dogs of all shapes and sizes. He is currently fostered with other dogs and doing well! We think Pepe could fit into your pack, or enjoy life as a solo dog.
Pepe was cat tested here at the rescue, and we believe that he is cat tolerant. Pepe could live with dog savvy kitties.
Pepe’s perfect home would have at least one loving human to call his own, and an abundance of treats and pets to be had. He’s not too picky about the rest, he’s just ready for his forever home!
We are willing to test Pepe with anything you need us to in order to ensure he’s the perfect match for you! We can make most anything happen! Just let us know.

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 5 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.
