Rhodesian Ridgeback puppies and dogs in Oregon

Oh my good golly gracious how I loved getting to know Nelson!!!! Nelson is that dog—the one who steals your heart before you even sit down. During our visit, his favorite place to be was cozied up on the couch, curled against us in a tangle of kisses and tail wags. He’s a tall drink of water with the soul of a teddy bear, and he knows exactly how to win you over with his affectionate nature and striking good looks. We believe Nelson is a hound mix and is about 2 years old and 46 pounds. Due to him being a rescue, age and breed cannot be guaranteed, but he makes up for the uncertainty of his genetics with his looks and charm. Check out this stud muffin below! https://youtu.be/FLOR-YY53Os Nelson currently does not live with any kiddos, but his foster told us that this gentle guy has been around newborns and little ones and was nothing but calm and kind. If you have a specific age group of kids Nelson would be around, let us know and we would be happy to see how he interacts with them! We want to make sure he is perfect for you! Based on what his foster said and his affection towards me during his visit, we believe he’d make a wonderful family dog for a home with respectful young children who can handle the occasional enthusiastic smooch, or older kids who’d love to toss a ball around the yard with him. Nelson is quite the curious fellow, especially when it comes to cats. He’s a little too intrigued for their liking, so a cat-free home will be the best match for him. As for canine companions, he lives with multiple foster doggy siblings! He would do great with a low to medium energy friend! He definitely is down to play but is equally okay being a devoted solo companion to his human friends! A natural glider with a love for movement, Nelson really shines when he has space to roam and run. I LOVED watching him effortlessly dart down from one edge of the yard to the other. Because of that, he’d do best in a home with a yard rather than an apartment. His athleticism mixed with his affectionate heart makes him the perfect companion for someone who loves to snuggle after a good romp outdoors. Are you looking for a friend to travel with? Nelson does great in the car! His foster had nothing but good things to say about his car riding skills! So get that hiking trip planned now! Nelson is ready! Out of all the dogs I’ve met, Nelson left a lasting impression! I will forever love that boy. He’s loyal, tender, and full of goofy charm. If you're looking for a best friend to fill your home with fun, this distinguished gentleman might just be your guy. Has Nelson claimed your heart?

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 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. It doesn’t stop there!

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?

It saddens us to have to rehome Rue. Rue lives in West Linn. She is approx. 19 months old. We rescued Rue a 9 months ago(she was abandoned in a parking lot) and our other dog of 7 years will not accept her. Rue's shots are all current and she is spade. She has a loving personality and loves to cuddle. We have boarded her several times and she got along with the other dogs there. She is a mixed breed mostly Rhodesian Ridgeback and weighs 54 pounds. She is crate trained. She is very active. Rue has not been around kids much. We feel she would do best in a home where she is the only dog where she would get all the love and attention she deserves.

Meet Titi – Your New Best Friend! Titi is one of the friendliest young pups you’ll ever meet! This easygoing boy has a laid-back personality and would fit in perfectly with just about any family. Whether you're relaxing at home or heading out for an adventure, Titi is ready to be by your side. He’s a dream in the car—making him the perfect co-pilot for road trips or quick errands. Titi is crate-trained, walks beautifully on a leash, and gets along great with other dogs, especially those his size or smaller. If you’re looking for a sweet, adaptable companion who’s always happy to make new friends, Titi is the one for you! All of our adoptables are in Houston until adopted.  You can see this post because one of our foster homes are 250 mile radius from your home.  Unfortunately meet & greets are not possible as they all arrive already adopted.   Our adoption fee includes transport, all age required shots, microchip, & a health certificate from a licensed veterinarian. We look forward to receiving your application! We will review it shortly and give you a call to set up a phone interview.  We are thrilled to offer transport services every 3 weeks from Houston to the Pacific Northwest, the Midwest, and the East Coast, ensuring that these incredible pets can find their way to you no matter where you are. This makes the adoption process smooth and convenient, allowing you to focus on welcoming your new family member with open arms. Why should you adopt from a Texas Rescue? Because you will be giving one of our many dogs and cats in need a chance for a better future away from a city that has an animal crisis. We are heartbroken each day with the many incredible and loving animals found wandering our streets. So often are these animals dumped, abandoned, or born on the streets and never find a home to call their own. We are giving them the chance that every animal deserves. We know that since you are looking to add a furry family member to your home here, you will provide the love, care, and attention they need to thrive. Thank you for considering adopting and not shopping. If you have fallen madly in love and would like to make this baby part of your family, then go to https://www.petstablished.com/organization/920716    ##2399075##

MEET HOWIE! This happy, gentle Rhodesian Ridgeback/pit mix is a loverboy! Howie is 5 years young and has a heart full of love to give. He was rescued from a California shelter in very rough shape - he had major skin issues/hair loss and had clearly been neglected, but now he looks so much better! He's appreciative of love and attention and is a very affectionate boy. He's a big snuggler and will want to share your bed. He loves going for walks and other outings. He is good with some dogs but not others, so would probably thrive as the only dog in the home, or with a submissive female. He's been waiting a long time for his own home, and we're hoping 2025 is his year! Howie currently needs a foster or forever home. He weighs about 55-60 lbs. Please email for an application.

Evie was born 1-1-24 as an unbelievably lazy puppy. Now, going to dog parks are awesome for her with some agility training but with boundless energy she really needs a good run. Evie has always paid attention with diligence with only a touch of defiance as she eyes you at of the corner of her eye while not taking her eye off the ball. She is always so excited she likes to jump when she first meets people but eventually calms down, I've tried to recorrect this behavior but she doesn't seem to want to listen when she's excited, henceforth needing a run before training. Evie definitely loves to talk loudly when she wants something. Yet, when you pay attention to where she's looking, the only thing you hear is her tail wagging n that means you found it, it's adorable I can't help but laugh, I taught her hide n seek with peanut butter treats. Now Evie plays "guess which toys I hide". She's a smart cookie who loves ice cubes, seriously it's her favorite treat.

Meet Buddy – A Gentle Soul Looking for His Perfect Match! Buddy is a senior Ridgeback/Black Mouth Cur mix with a heart full of love and a personality that shines once he feels safe. He may be shy at first and take some time to decompress, but once he’s comfortable, his sweet and gentle nature comes through. Buddy absolutely loves other dogs and enjoys their company. He is both house-trained and crate-trained—in fact, his crate is his happy place! When left alone, he prefers the security of his kennel, and even when his humans are home, he often chooses to relax there with the door open. This lovable senior does well on a leash and would thrive in a quiet, low-energy home with a patient adopter who understands that he needs time to adjust. While he hasn't been around young children, his gentle nature suggests he would be great with them. We don’t know how he is with cats, but he gets along wonderfully with other dogs. Buddy’s favorite toys are anything soft and squishy, and he enjoys the simple comforts of companionship. He would be the perfect match for someone looking for a loving, loyal companion who doesn’t need a high-energy lifestyle. With patience and understanding, Buddy has so much love and potential to share. Are you the kind soul ready to give Buddy the forever home he deserves?
