Story
Seeking a Loving Home for Sweet Maple Maple is a gentle, medium-sized, ~9-month-old mix (approx. 43 lbs), possibly Whippet/Terrier mix. She is extremely sweet, cuddly, and obedient. She is fully potty trained and loves kids and other dogs (she is submissive and non-reactive). Maple is a rescue and is shy, especially around men; she needs patience to bond. A calm, less busy household is ideal, as she has anxiety currently managed with Trazodone. She thrives with one daily walk, running, and a backyard. She loves to play but needs non-chew toys kept out of reach due to puppy chewing. She is highly food motivated. Health Note: A heart murmur was recently noted, but the vet is not concerned and wants to recheck in six months. If you can offer Maple a patient, loving home, please contact us!

Story
Meet Chile Pepper! She is a very adorable and very active young dog who’s just turning a year old. I’m going through a divorce and I’m forced to leave my home. I will likely need to stay with family for a while and Pepper cannot come with me. She’s crate trained and potty trained but unfortunately with the stress and financial cost of the divorce I haven’t been able to properly manage her vet visits or give her adequate exercise. She has a heart of gold but she doesn’t know her own strength sometimes and jumps up on my young children. She’s never shown any type of aggression and does well with other dogs and is familiar with cats. She could be a loving and loyal companion to the right person who wants to invest the proper time into her that she deserves. It’s a sad situation but the only thing that would make it better would be to know she’s found a loving home. No known health conditions, low maintenance coat.

Cookie is a loving dog who gets along with everyone. My autistic grandson loves her and she displays unbelievable patience with him. Unfortunately we are moving cross country and we will not be able to keep her since our condo in Florida does not allow pets. She has current shots and needs a home where she gets lots of love and attention.

Story
In early June an unexpected visitor showed up in the middle of the night. My dogs were barking so I went outside to see them playing with a beautiful dog that appears to be a Whippet/Shepherd mix. About a week later while I was still looking for the owner, our unexpected guest went into heat and hooked up with my Golden Retriever. So I decided to name her Mercy and take care of her during her pregnancy. But now that most of the pups are either gone or spoken for, Mercy needs a forever home. I can no longer keep her. Mercy is wary of strangers but she is comfortable with me on a leash and is very loving once she warms up to you. She loves to play with my other dogs and doesn’t chase my cat when I’m present. But if kitty runs, she will chase. Mercy stays in the kennel with my other dogs. She is house trained in the sense that holds her poop until I take them for a walk. Mercy readily returns your affection with love and gratitude.

Story
Dandi! Watching this beautiful Great Pyrenees mix (likely with whippet or greyhound) run is watching poetry in motion. She is fast, graceful, & can turn on a dime. This is all done in play or merely for pure joy. Dandi does not have a prey drive. She is fine with cats. Dandi gets along famously with dogs of all sizes. This is fantastic as she must have at least one canine companion to help her manage her very high energy levels. Once her frenetic high spiritedness has been drained, she plays contentedly on her own with toys. She is affectionate, craves attention. Her ideal home: An active family Older children At least one canine companion A fenced yard with room for her to run She is not the type of dog to be crated & left alone for long periods. Attributes: Very high energy Must have at least one canine companion Crate trained Leash trained Cat safe Older children best Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $450 (includes transport to your area)

These pups are in Portland, Oregon too!

Email Jodi@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!    The adoption fee is $1,200 and includes all vetting (DAPP with booster, Bordetella, Rabies vaccine, multiple broad spectrum deworming treatments, spay/neuter, flea prevention, a 12 month heartworm preventative injectable, heartworm test and treatment if needed, a microchip with free lifetime registration, a high quality nylon Martingale collar, a health certificate deeming the pup healthy for travel, cost of transport*, and priceless years of love and loyal companionship!    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!   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?
