Story
This sweet angel is Lizzie! You don’t want to miss out on this big girl with an even bigger heart! We believe Lizzie is an XL American Bully mix—of course, with rescue, that’s just our best guess! At 5 years old, she’s still a big goofball who brings laughs and love everywhere she goes. Especially with her famous happy hops. She just hops and hops around the house when she’s happy to see you! Gosh, my cheeks hurt just thinking about how big I’d be smiling if I came home to that every day! Maybe there’s some bunny DNA in there? Lizzie is smart as a whip—she knows sit and even shake! She never says no to a snack (like, ever), which makes training fun and easy for everyone involved. And by everyone, we mean kids too! Lizzie recently met a baby and an 8-year-old and definitely prefers the older kiddos who are steady on their feet. She was so gentle taking treats from the 8-year-old, and they ended their meet-up with a cuddle sesh on the couch. Her cuddles? Immaculate. Though she does think she’s a lap dog… classic Lizzie! See her adorable, heartwarming video here: https://youtu.be/zzlwNqUrT_I?si=wBvitVgcUxGS0ZpE Bath time? No problem! She’s a champ and enjoys the extra pampering. She’s fully housebroken, trusted to free roam, and has never been destructive (even with toys!). At night, she cozies up in bed, but she’s also crate trained and does well when crated. Lizzie is still working on her leash skills, so a home with a yard would be ideal while she perfects her walk game. She’s a big girl who loves to sniff around, sunbathe on the porch, and chill nearby while you sip your morning coffee or putter around the garden. Wherever you are, Lizzie just wants to be part of it. She's that kind of dog—the one who makes everything better just by being there. To set Lizzie up for success, she’s looking for an experienced handler who can confidently guide her in her next chapter. While she adores her people, Lizzie is looking to be the one and only pet in the home—a queen without competition! She thrives in a calm, structured environment where she can feel safe, loved, and totally doted on (her favorite thing). Ready to welcome a lovable, goofy, sunbathing, ride-or-die girl into your life? Lizzie's waiting with a heart full of love and the best happy hops you've ever seen.

Story
Holly is full of joy and light! She is a bouncy bean, hip hopping everywhere! I think she would prefer to just bounce everywhere instead of walking. She has never met a stranger— she just wanted to play with every dog she met within seconds. Holly loves toys so much, especially big soft ones that don’t fit in her mouth so she looks super silly. She was making everyone at the rescue laugh so hard, I’m sure it was the best part of the day. But my favorite thing about her would have to be how she gets the zoomies with her toys. After she zooms she will roll over on her back and just roll all over her toys. It’s so funny! She loves to chew on them and continue rubbing her back all in the grass. Holly is too cute to handle. Holly’s favorite thing ever was probably meeting her new teenage best friend. She was begging for booty scratches, and let her new friend use her booty as little bongos! She loved it! Are you ready to meet her? She’s ready for you! Watch Holly here: https://youtu.be/z0PKEgMzHuU?si=Sv6kysLM-_89kcGn Holly has some basic knowledge of sit and come. She has good leash manners from working on them here at the rescue so she will be perfect and ready to go to her new home. She even knows drop it! Her favorite toys are sticks or anything rubber. She loves to fetch them, and then depot to the ground and roll all over them! I call these her “happy drops”. She loves to use her mouth when she’s playing so older kids who know it’s just all fun and games would be perfect for her. She is quiet in her crate and lets you take her toys from her with no problem! Holly is dog friendly but she likes to keep her circle tight, lol! She has been in many play groups, she just needs friends that match her vibe! We could see her in a home with other puppy pals who appreciate a little rowdy play! Holly prefers a friend who appreciates her bouncy nature and style. Probably a confident male companion would be best! Holly is ready to find her furever family who will appreciate everything she has to offer! From her bouncies to her love of booty scratches. She is a quality gal!

Story
That face that you fell for is the happy-go-lucky heartthrob we call Charlie. He is the kind of dog that meets the world with a big ol’ smile and all the wiggle-wag one dog can physically create. He is a goofball with bouncy joy, the cutest charm, and some amazing cuddles. Charlie is estimated to be just over one-year-old, he weighs 50-pounds, and we think he is a bit of a lab/bulldog mix but truthfully we can’t say for sure given he is a rescue. The only test I could run showed he is 100% sunshine and sweetness. See for yourself then come back to read more- https://youtu.be/sQRj9YmGuG4 Charlie is a friendly boy that makes it hard not to fall for him immediately. After I spent the day with him I didn’t want him to go- I had fallen for him. He is instantly affectionate and melts into a puddle of belly rub seeking butter. If he doesn’t melt you will feel him lean into you for hugs, and he will even let you scoop him up for an extra sweet cuddle. This guy’s happy energy is contagious and that doesn’t stop with people, he is just as thrilled to make new dog friends as he is to be by your side. The afternoon we spent with Charlie we introduced him to a wide variety of dogs to get a feel for his play style and the types of dogs he enjoys most. It didn’t take long at all for us to be impressed with how friendly and welcoming he was. Even when other dogs came in a little hot or pushy, Charlie handled it with grace. With the right dog, an equally bouncy, playful dog, he showed us he loves a bit of bouncy, physical play but it isn’t his constant. He was comfortable enough to lay down beside brand-new dogs a sign of total trust. He’s the type who only joins in play when invited and isn’t going to push his way in as a third wheel or shut down the fun for them. He isn’t going to cause a stir but will always try to help keep the vibes tuned to fun-loving, calm joy. Charlie does need some leash work, he has the basics down and honestly I feel like I am betraying him to say such a thing because it didn’t bother me one bit. All I could see was a happy boy who was just so excited to explore the world! The more he gets to experience and enjoy the better he will be at pacing himself . That and some practice (and maybe a few treats to reward him for checking-in and walking by your side), he will learn quickly. He is a smart boy, eager to please, and already shows how well he responds when guided gently. He will bond fast and deep with his people. During the time we spent with him, the first person who interacted with him as his handler walked out of the yard, he stayed by the gate waiting- a loyal love bug through and through. Because of that devotion, he may miss you when you go at first, its natural, but with time and routine he will settle into knowing his favorite people always come home. Charlie would do best in a home with a yard and another playful, medium-energy dog to run and romp with. He could adjust to apartment living once his leash manners are polished as long as he gets plenty of playtime and adventures to meet his mental and physical needs. No cats for Charlie though, his eager friendliness does not vibe with cats. We all know cats- if you’re too eager they don’t care for you and that goes for dogs too. Charlie gets to focus his love and happiness towards people and dogs. If you’re looking for a happy, loving, goofy companion who’ll make every day so much better, Charlie’s your guy. One look into that glowing, goofy face and you’ll know -his boy was made to love you. Ready to welcome some sunshine into your life?

Story
2025’s Beefcake of the Year Award goes to… Chance! Here is your Chance! Your chance at the ultimate beefcake. Get a good look at him here then come back to read more- https://youtu.be/06qGfTY8-2s And for good reason, he truly has one of the cutest beefcake faces with an all-star smile. He is more than his good looks though, he is your classic bully boy- chill and playful, with aspirations for snugged-up lap-dog life. Take a look at him in action then come back to read more! Chance is estimated to be right around 2.5 years old and he weighs 62 lbs. Age and breed are details we cannot guarantee given he is a rescue but everything from his looks to his personality lead us to believe he is an American bully mix of some sort. Chance is fostered in a loving home and his foster shared that he is fully house and crate trained. We love that! Sure he isn’t your typical “lapdog” size but he knows that so he approaches snuggles gently and carefully, you will never see him come barreling in for love. Honestly, he is so respectful he often will wait until you make the first move before coming in close. His signature move though is what we call the love lean, if you are standing or even sitting really, he will lean his weight into you, in such a quiet, loving way. He wants to be touching without interrupting you or being too demanding. We love it, it feels like a hug. The ideal home for Chance would be a home with a yard and he would make a wonderful +1 for an easygoing dog similar to himself. A condo/townhome is a possibility, he doesn’t need a yard as long as he is getting regular walks for his physical health and chances to socialize for his mental health. He isn’t the bouncy playful type but enjoys the company of other, equally chill dogs, though I have been impressed with how he handles high energy, wild dogs. When the high-energy dogs get to playing a little wild, he just takes himself to the side and checks in with his person. He doesn't want to stop them or be involved, we love an unbothered big boy! Just the same as his potential to be a +1, he is totally game to be the center of attention as your one-and-only fur-baby. Without another dog, chances are he will get a steady stream of new toys and he is going to love that! His love of toys is adorable and he can easily entertain himself, a wonderful quality! Most recently, he showed us again just how much he loves toys and he had a blast playing with a group of people, showing off his fetch. An apartment with shared walls isn’t best as he can use his voice on occasion and we don’t want any noise complaints on account of this lover boy. No kitties for Chance though, he was introduced to our house cat and he was very interested in meeting him in a way that we recognize as the overly eager curiosity that leads to chasing and chasing leads to chaos and an unhappy cat. As for kids, he’d do best in a home with older ones (10+) he’s a solid boy and could accidentally knock over a little one. When he met a very wiggly and giggly four year old he was happy to get love from him and was so patient and unbothered by his yelling and little kicks on his belly while they were snuggled up. So all ages of guests and visitors are welcome with Chance. This boy is fostered in a home with a single woman and she praises the comforting presence he gives her. Not only the love and snuggles, but when on a walk or while she sits at the charging station for her electric vehicle, his size and looks alone have a major bodyguard effect. That is something we can only see as a positive! Knight in shining armor or polar bear buddy, he is a fun, confident dog with a million dollar smile. Questions about Chance or the adoption process?

Story
Introducing ….Kongo King of the Boop, bringer of the smooches! This absolute specimen of a beefcake is estimated to be just shy of 2 years old American Bully boy with a big blocky head, the smile to match, and a cute cow-like black and white coat with polka dot sprinkles. Weighing 69 pounds, he’s a handsome, sturdy guy who’s equal parts physical presence and gentle devotion. Kongo is smart, attentive and treat-motivated. Despite the size of that mouth, he is a sweetheart when he takes snacks , he has a soft, gentle mouth. His signature move though is the nose boop! Whether he’s greeting you or exploring his world, Kongo’s boops are guaranteed to make you smile! Take a look then come back to read more- https://youtu.be/XYuSD_6zRQ0 Kongo is a laid-back pup who would love a calm, structured home. He’s not one for rough-and-tumble dog play but could do well with a lower-energy female dog who is happy to chill together. His looks may give off tough-guy but truly Kongo is sensitive and responds very well to a gentle, confident approach. He’ll do best in a quieter home, ideally with a yard to relax in and adopters who can help him feel safe. Because of his size, occasional pulling on leash, and lack of experience ins noisy/busy environments, Kongo is not suited for apartment living. Kongo is polite with people but occasionally will still jump. He is very responsive to gentle correction and jumps down quickly but for now, we recommend older kids if joining a family home and he is not the fit for an older, senior adopter. Kongo is so fun to take in public too. He is a great passenger in the car, although you may have to lure him inside with some chicken nuggets. Hey, me too Kongo! He had so much fun with our volunteers, they went to the park and sniffed the flowers, then off to pick out a yummy treat from the doggy bakery across the street. Sounds like a blast! Kongo is dog-friendly but undoubtedly has a “type” the mellow, easy-going females are welcome with him, but he also does not need a canine companion in the home and is a perfect fit if you are looking for a dog that will be happy as an only-dog. He is a sensitive soul, submissive to people, and deeply devoted once he trusts you, which comes easy. He is truly the kind of dog who is going to bond closely and become someone’s loyal best friend. This includes kiddos too! Kongo did wonderfully with a 4 year old here at the rescue. They had so much fun playing with stuffies, throwing them around the room and jumping all over the bed. Of course he had to give her some of his famous Kongo kisses and boops— and in exchange she gave him lots of treats, which he took with a gentle mouth. She gave him some of her famous bear hugs— and he didn’t mind one bit. In fact, he offered her one right back. He sat back on his hind legs and lifted his two front paws up and asked for a hug. Sweet Kongo, we just can’t help but fall for you! If you’re looking for a gentle, goofy, boopy boy, Kongo is ready to be yours! Ready to welcome Kongo into your life?

Story
💙 Meet Alfred – King of the Sploots, Master of the Snuggles, and Certified Big Baby 💙 If you’re ready for a dog who is basically a big, lovable couch potato with legs, say hello to Alfred — the snuggliest, splootiest, smooshiest boy to ever exist. With his big ol’ bulldog head, adorable brindle spots, and one blue eye and one brown eye, Alfred looks like someone sprinkled magic on a teddy bear and brought it to life. See for yourself in his video! https://youtu.be/WE0VFBzlGLA?feature=shared Alfred is around 6 years old and built like a loaf of love — thick, soft, and made for cuddles. We think he’s an English bulldog, Pittie mix but, we can’t be sure since he’s a rescue! His signature move is the sploot (legs stretched all the way out behind him like a frog), and he’ll plop down wherever he feels comfy, often with a dramatic sigh like he just ran a marathon (he did not). He’s a big fan of AC, squishy beds, and slow strolls that end in snacks and praise. He’s an absolute dream with kids — gentle, calm, and super affectionate. Alfred sits sweetly for treats, gives the softest little kisses, and happily soaks up attention like a big squishy sponge. He loves being part of the family, especially if that includes belly rubs, baby talk, and lounging indoors with his favorite humans. Cats? No problem! Alfred did wonderfully with feline friends — polite, calm, and respectful. He’s got that “you do your thing, I’ll do mine” energy when it comes to kitties, which makes him a great match for homes with chill, confident cats. With other dogs, Alfred prefers to keep things low-key. He’s not really into playing or roughhousing — he’s more of a vibe guy. He does well with calm dogs and can share space without issue, but he’s also totally content being your one-and-only cuddle companion. He’s not here for the drama — just the snacks, snuggles, and soft places to nap. Alfred walks on leash with enthusiasm (he’s a big boy, after all!), but he responds well to gentle guidance and positive encouragement. He’s already shown improvement with some simple leash training, and with a little patience, he’ll happily strut by your side like the handsome prince he is. He’s crate trained and loves being inside — especially when there’s air conditioning and a cozy spot to sprawl out in. Alfred isn’t the type of pup who wants to go on grand adventures or spend hours outdoors. He’s more of a “let’s chill at home and binge-watch cartoons” kind of guy — which makes him perfect for a family that loves lazy Sundays and cuddle time. Alfred would thrive in a calm home where he can decompress, get lots of love, and enjoy a routine. He might be a little unsure in new places at first, but once he settles in, his affectionate, goofy, lovable personality really shines through. He’s got so much love to give — all he needs is someone to give it to. If you’re dreaming of a gentle, sweet, squishy-faced best friend who will happily nap next to your kids, give the softest kisses, respect your cat’s boundaries, and make you laugh every single day with his ridiculous sploots — Alfred is your boy. One blue eye. One brown eye. One giant heart. Come meet Alfred and let this sweet snuggle king wiggle his way into your home — and your heart. Ready to welcome a new furry friend into your life?

Story
This sweet angel is Lizzie! You don’t want to miss out on this big girl with an even bigger heart! We believe Lizzie is an XL American Bully mix—of course, with rescue, that’s just our best guess! At 5 years old, she’s still a big goofball who brings laughs and love everywhere she goes. Especially with her famous happy hops. She just hops and hops around the house when she’s happy to see you! Gosh, my cheeks hurt just thinking about how big I’d be smiling if I came home to that every day! Maybe there’s some bunny DNA in there? Lizzie is smart as a whip—she knows sit and even shake! She never says no to a snack (like, ever), which makes training fun and easy for everyone involved. And by everyone, we mean kids too! Lizzie recently met a baby and an 8-year-old and definitely prefers the older kiddos who are steady on their feet. She was so gentle taking treats from the 8-year-old, and they ended their meet-up with a cuddle sesh on the couch. Her cuddles? Immaculate. Though she does think she’s a lap dog… classic Lizzie! See her adorable, heartwarming video here: https://youtu.be/zzlwNqUrT_I?si=wBvitVgcUxGS0ZpE Bath time? No problem! She’s a champ and enjoys the extra pampering. She’s fully housebroken, trusted to free roam, and has never been destructive (even with toys!). At night, she cozies up in bed, but she’s also crate trained and does well when crated. Lizzie is still working on her leash skills, so a home with a yard would be ideal while she perfects her walk game. She’s a big girl who loves to sniff around, sunbathe on the porch, and chill nearby while you sip your morning coffee or putter around the garden. Wherever you are, Lizzie just wants to be part of it. She's that kind of dog—the one who makes everything better just by being there. To set Lizzie up for success, she’s looking for an experienced handler who can confidently guide her in her next chapter. While she adores her people, Lizzie is looking to be the one and only pet in the home—a queen without competition! She thrives in a calm, structured environment where she can feel safe, loved, and totally doted on (her favorite thing). Ready to welcome a lovable, goofy, sunbathing, ride-or-die girl into your life? Lizzie's waiting with a heart full of love and the best happy hops you've ever seen.

Story
Holly is full of joy and light! She is a bouncy bean, hip hopping everywhere! I think she would prefer to just bounce everywhere instead of walking. She has never met a stranger— she just wanted to play with every dog she met within seconds. Holly loves toys so much, especially big soft ones that don’t fit in her mouth so she looks super silly. She was making everyone at the rescue laugh so hard, I’m sure it was the best part of the day. But my favorite thing about her would have to be how she gets the zoomies with her toys. After she zooms she will roll over on her back and just roll all over her toys. It’s so funny! She loves to chew on them and continue rubbing her back all in the grass. Holly is too cute to handle. Holly’s favorite thing ever was probably meeting her new teenage best friend. She was begging for booty scratches, and let her new friend use her booty as little bongos! She loved it! Are you ready to meet her? She’s ready for you! Watch Holly here: https://youtu.be/z0PKEgMzHuU?si=Sv6kysLM-_89kcGn Holly has some basic knowledge of sit and come. She has good leash manners from working on them here at the rescue so she will be perfect and ready to go to her new home. She even knows drop it! Her favorite toys are sticks or anything rubber. She loves to fetch them, and then depot to the ground and roll all over them! I call these her “happy drops”. She loves to use her mouth when she’s playing so older kids who know it’s just all fun and games would be perfect for her. She is quiet in her crate and lets you take her toys from her with no problem! Holly is dog friendly but she likes to keep her circle tight, lol! She has been in many play groups, she just needs friends that match her vibe! We could see her in a home with other puppy pals who appreciate a little rowdy play! Holly prefers a friend who appreciates her bouncy nature and style. Probably a confident male companion would be best! Holly is ready to find her furever family who will appreciate everything she has to offer! From her bouncies to her love of booty scratches. She is a quality gal!

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!

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!

Story
That face that you fell for is the happy-go-lucky heartthrob we call Charlie. He is the kind of dog that meets the world with a big ol’ smile and all the wiggle-wag one dog can physically create. He is a goofball with bouncy joy, the cutest charm, and some amazing cuddles. Charlie is estimated to be just over one-year-old, he weighs 50-pounds, and we think he is a bit of a lab/bulldog mix but truthfully we can’t say for sure given he is a rescue. The only test I could run showed he is 100% sunshine and sweetness. See for yourself then come back to read more- https://youtu.be/sQRj9YmGuG4 Charlie is a friendly boy that makes it hard not to fall for him immediately. After I spent the day with him I didn’t want him to go- I had fallen for him. He is instantly affectionate and melts into a puddle of belly rub seeking butter. If he doesn’t melt you will feel him lean into you for hugs, and he will even let you scoop him up for an extra sweet cuddle. This guy’s happy energy is contagious and that doesn’t stop with people, he is just as thrilled to make new dog friends as he is to be by your side. The afternoon we spent with Charlie we introduced him to a wide variety of dogs to get a feel for his play style and the types of dogs he enjoys most. It didn’t take long at all for us to be impressed with how friendly and welcoming he was. Even when other dogs came in a little hot or pushy, Charlie handled it with grace. With the right dog, an equally bouncy, playful dog, he showed us he loves a bit of bouncy, physical play but it isn’t his constant. He was comfortable enough to lay down beside brand-new dogs a sign of total trust. He’s the type who only joins in play when invited and isn’t going to push his way in as a third wheel or shut down the fun for them. He isn’t going to cause a stir but will always try to help keep the vibes tuned to fun-loving, calm joy. Charlie does need some leash work, he has the basics down and honestly I feel like I am betraying him to say such a thing because it didn’t bother me one bit. All I could see was a happy boy who was just so excited to explore the world! The more he gets to experience and enjoy the better he will be at pacing himself . That and some practice (and maybe a few treats to reward him for checking-in and walking by your side), he will learn quickly. He is a smart boy, eager to please, and already shows how well he responds when guided gently. He will bond fast and deep with his people. During the time we spent with him, the first person who interacted with him as his handler walked out of the yard, he stayed by the gate waiting- a loyal love bug through and through. Because of that devotion, he may miss you when you go at first, its natural, but with time and routine he will settle into knowing his favorite people always come home. Charlie would do best in a home with a yard and another playful, medium-energy dog to run and romp with. He could adjust to apartment living once his leash manners are polished as long as he gets plenty of playtime and adventures to meet his mental and physical needs. No cats for Charlie though, his eager friendliness does not vibe with cats. We all know cats- if you’re too eager they don’t care for you and that goes for dogs too. Charlie gets to focus his love and happiness towards people and dogs. If you’re looking for a happy, loving, goofy companion who’ll make every day so much better, Charlie’s your guy. One look into that glowing, goofy face and you’ll know -his boy was made to love you. Ready to welcome some sunshine into your life?

Story
💙 Meet Alfred – King of the Sploots, Master of the Snuggles, and Certified Big Baby 💙 If you’re ready for a dog who is basically a big, lovable couch potato with legs, say hello to Alfred — the snuggliest, splootiest, smooshiest boy to ever exist. With his big ol’ bulldog head, adorable brindle spots, and one blue eye and one brown eye, Alfred looks like someone sprinkled magic on a teddy bear and brought it to life. See for yourself in his video! https://youtu.be/WE0VFBzlGLA?feature=shared Alfred is around 6 years old and built like a loaf of love — thick, soft, and made for cuddles. We think he’s an English bulldog, Pittie mix but, we can’t be sure since he’s a rescue! His signature move is the sploot (legs stretched all the way out behind him like a frog), and he’ll plop down wherever he feels comfy, often with a dramatic sigh like he just ran a marathon (he did not). He’s a big fan of AC, squishy beds, and slow strolls that end in snacks and praise. He’s an absolute dream with kids — gentle, calm, and super affectionate. Alfred sits sweetly for treats, gives the softest little kisses, and happily soaks up attention like a big squishy sponge. He loves being part of the family, especially if that includes belly rubs, baby talk, and lounging indoors with his favorite humans. Cats? No problem! Alfred did wonderfully with feline friends — polite, calm, and respectful. He’s got that “you do your thing, I’ll do mine” energy when it comes to kitties, which makes him a great match for homes with chill, confident cats. With other dogs, Alfred prefers to keep things low-key. He’s not really into playing or roughhousing — he’s more of a vibe guy. He does well with calm dogs and can share space without issue, but he’s also totally content being your one-and-only cuddle companion. He’s not here for the drama — just the snacks, snuggles, and soft places to nap. Alfred walks on leash with enthusiasm (he’s a big boy, after all!), but he responds well to gentle guidance and positive encouragement. He’s already shown improvement with some simple leash training, and with a little patience, he’ll happily strut by your side like the handsome prince he is. He’s crate trained and loves being inside — especially when there’s air conditioning and a cozy spot to sprawl out in. Alfred isn’t the type of pup who wants to go on grand adventures or spend hours outdoors. He’s more of a “let’s chill at home and binge-watch cartoons” kind of guy — which makes him perfect for a family that loves lazy Sundays and cuddle time. Alfred would thrive in a calm home where he can decompress, get lots of love, and enjoy a routine. He might be a little unsure in new places at first, but once he settles in, his affectionate, goofy, lovable personality really shines through. He’s got so much love to give — all he needs is someone to give it to. If you’re dreaming of a gentle, sweet, squishy-faced best friend who will happily nap next to your kids, give the softest kisses, respect your cat’s boundaries, and make you laugh every single day with his ridiculous sploots — Alfred is your boy. One blue eye. One brown eye. One giant heart. Come meet Alfred and let this sweet snuggle king wiggle his way into your home — and your heart. Ready to welcome a new furry friend into your life?

Story
2025’s Beefcake of the Year Award goes to… Chance! Here is your Chance! Your chance at the ultimate beefcake. Get a good look at him here then come back to read more- https://youtu.be/06qGfTY8-2s And for good reason, he truly has one of the cutest beefcake faces with an all-star smile. He is more than his good looks though, he is your classic bully boy- chill and playful, with aspirations for snugged-up lap-dog life. Take a look at him in action then come back to read more! Chance is estimated to be right around 2.5 years old and he weighs 62 lbs. Age and breed are details we cannot guarantee given he is a rescue but everything from his looks to his personality lead us to believe he is an American bully mix of some sort. Chance is fostered in a loving home and his foster shared that he is fully house and crate trained. We love that! Sure he isn’t your typical “lapdog” size but he knows that so he approaches snuggles gently and carefully, you will never see him come barreling in for love. Honestly, he is so respectful he often will wait until you make the first move before coming in close. His signature move though is what we call the love lean, if you are standing or even sitting really, he will lean his weight into you, in such a quiet, loving way. He wants to be touching without interrupting you or being too demanding. We love it, it feels like a hug. The ideal home for Chance would be a home with a yard and he would make a wonderful +1 for an easygoing dog similar to himself. A condo/townhome is a possibility, he doesn’t need a yard as long as he is getting regular walks for his physical health and chances to socialize for his mental health. He isn’t the bouncy playful type but enjoys the company of other, equally chill dogs, though I have been impressed with how he handles high energy, wild dogs. When the high-energy dogs get to playing a little wild, he just takes himself to the side and checks in with his person. He doesn't want to stop them or be involved, we love an unbothered big boy! Just the same as his potential to be a +1, he is totally game to be the center of attention as your one-and-only fur-baby. Without another dog, chances are he will get a steady stream of new toys and he is going to love that! His love of toys is adorable and he can easily entertain himself, a wonderful quality! Most recently, he showed us again just how much he loves toys and he had a blast playing with a group of people, showing off his fetch. An apartment with shared walls isn’t best as he can use his voice on occasion and we don’t want any noise complaints on account of this lover boy. No kitties for Chance though, he was introduced to our house cat and he was very interested in meeting him in a way that we recognize as the overly eager curiosity that leads to chasing and chasing leads to chaos and an unhappy cat. As for kids, he’d do best in a home with older ones (10+) he’s a solid boy and could accidentally knock over a little one. When he met a very wiggly and giggly four year old he was happy to get love from him and was so patient and unbothered by his yelling and little kicks on his belly while they were snuggled up. So all ages of guests and visitors are welcome with Chance. This boy is fostered in a home with a single woman and she praises the comforting presence he gives her. Not only the love and snuggles, but when on a walk or while she sits at the charging station for her electric vehicle, his size and looks alone have a major bodyguard effect. That is something we can only see as a positive! Knight in shining armor or polar bear buddy, he is a fun, confident dog with a million dollar smile. Questions about Chance or the adoption process?

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 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
Introducing ….Kongo King of the Boop, bringer of the smooches! This absolute specimen of a beefcake is estimated to be just shy of 2 years old American Bully boy with a big blocky head, the smile to match, and a cute cow-like black and white coat with polka dot sprinkles. Weighing 69 pounds, he’s a handsome, sturdy guy who’s equal parts physical presence and gentle devotion. Kongo is smart, attentive and treat-motivated. Despite the size of that mouth, he is a sweetheart when he takes snacks , he has a soft, gentle mouth. His signature move though is the nose boop! Whether he’s greeting you or exploring his world, Kongo’s boops are guaranteed to make you smile! Take a look then come back to read more- https://youtu.be/XYuSD_6zRQ0 Kongo is a laid-back pup who would love a calm, structured home. He’s not one for rough-and-tumble dog play but could do well with a lower-energy female dog who is happy to chill together. His looks may give off tough-guy but truly Kongo is sensitive and responds very well to a gentle, confident approach. He’ll do best in a quieter home, ideally with a yard to relax in and adopters who can help him feel safe. Because of his size, occasional pulling on leash, and lack of experience ins noisy/busy environments, Kongo is not suited for apartment living. Kongo is polite with people but occasionally will still jump. He is very responsive to gentle correction and jumps down quickly but for now, we recommend older kids if joining a family home and he is not the fit for an older, senior adopter. Kongo is so fun to take in public too. He is a great passenger in the car, although you may have to lure him inside with some chicken nuggets. Hey, me too Kongo! He had so much fun with our volunteers, they went to the park and sniffed the flowers, then off to pick out a yummy treat from the doggy bakery across the street. Sounds like a blast! Kongo is dog-friendly but undoubtedly has a “type” the mellow, easy-going females are welcome with him, but he also does not need a canine companion in the home and is a perfect fit if you are looking for a dog that will be happy as an only-dog. He is a sensitive soul, submissive to people, and deeply devoted once he trusts you, which comes easy. He is truly the kind of dog who is going to bond closely and become someone’s loyal best friend. This includes kiddos too! Kongo did wonderfully with a 4 year old here at the rescue. They had so much fun playing with stuffies, throwing them around the room and jumping all over the bed. Of course he had to give her some of his famous Kongo kisses and boops— and in exchange she gave him lots of treats, which he took with a gentle mouth. She gave him some of her famous bear hugs— and he didn’t mind one bit. In fact, he offered her one right back. He sat back on his hind legs and lifted his two front paws up and asked for a hug. Sweet Kongo, we just can’t help but fall for you! If you’re looking for a gentle, goofy, boopy boy, Kongo is ready to be yours! Ready to welcome Kongo into your life?

If you're looking for a best friend with the absolute best smile and a sugary sweet affectionate soul, meet Tango the kissy Dancer. This boy is the full package: loyal, playful, soooo loving, and a total goofball with the pittie head that’ll make you fall in love at first sight! We believe Tango is a Boxer/Pittie mix around 9 months old and weighs approximately 45 pounds. He has the perfect little compact body and the most handsome face ever. Due to him being a rescue, age and breed are our best guess and cannot be guaranteed. Check out Tango here: https://youtu.be/CS4K0UqmYSs Tango has never met a stranger. He’s the kind of dog who walks into a room and instantly makes everyone feel like they’ve been best friends for years. And if you’ve got treats? Well, buckle up, because you’ve just become the center of his universe. He was not shy giving everyone at the property his undivided attention for a quick round of kisses and puppy tail wags. Treats are the way to this boy’s heart, and he’ll show his appreciation with his signature toothy grin and the happiest tail wag you’ve ever seen. His love for people runs deep. His foster says her favorite thing about him is how he’ll climb into her lap and just gaze at her like she’s the most important person in the world. He is cuddly beyond belief and would absolutely thrive in a home where he can curl up next to you, soaking in all the love you have to give. Tango has lived harmoniously with a full dog squad, four pups in total, and he's been the life of the party. Whether it’s his dominant older foster sister, his high-energy lab buddy, or two playful 1.5-year-old boys. He knows how to read the room and match energy. He plays respectfully, knows when to follow the rules, and can roughhouse with the best of them. He also attends a daycare where he mingles like a pro with a group of 20-30 dogs. His best friends there? A Doberman and another pittie. He really shines around dogs his size or playful puppies who love a good game of chase. He would thrive in a home with another medium energy dog to spend his days with. After a bit of play, Tango knows how to settle down. One of our favorite moments with him was after the crowd cleared and he just hung out with us in a quiet room, relaxed and content, soaking up some one-on-one time. He’ll make a great adventure buddy followed by an evening relaxing on the couch. He walks beautifully on leash and would be the kind of dog you take to the park, patio, or trail and know he’ll be right by your side, smiling the whole way. At home, he’s crate trained and sleeps through the night like a champ. He would do best in a home with a yard to run off his zoomies, and we can easily see him thriving with older, dog-savvy kids who’ll love him as much as he loves them. If there is a certain age that you are curious to know how Tango interacts with, let us know. We will be happy to find out. We want to make sure he is perfect for your family! Cats, however, are not his cup of tea. He’s all about the people and the pups. He doesn’t need much to be happy, just a little space to play, a lap to lean into, and someone to share his big heart with. Tango is the definition of man’s best friend, but really, he’s everyone’s best friend. If you're looking for a loyal, fun-loving, treat-motivated cuddle machine with the biggest heart and a head you’ll want to smooch daily, Tango the kissy Dancer is ready to two-step his way right into your life.

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!

Story
Chaos, charm, and one perfect ear. That’s Vinne Van Gogh. He’s a four legged wonder who snores louder than your uncle after Thanksgiving, barrels into a room like a tiny wrecking ball, his heavy hot breathing announces his arrival every single time, and somehow he balances all that chaos with sweet side that makes him impossible not to adore. A master piece that only someone who can giggle through the snorts, snores, and bulldog mischief could love. If anything of this intrigues you, keep reading and watch his video below. You’ll either be insanely entertained or better yet, you’ll be wanting to bring this adorable menace home: https://youtu.be/nqMT9iehZ1Q?si=3xkexP-KCBfrfqII Vinnie Van Gogh is estimated to be around two-years-old and is a bulldog mix weighing in at 54 lbs. With rescues we cannot guarantee age or breed given we do not know their past. This guy has the looks of a bulldog and he certainly has the personality to go along with it. Vinnie is a classic bulldog through and through- built like a solid brick house, handsome as all-get-out, a little stubborn because he can be, and considers himself to be the greatest work of art since…well, anything. Picasso could never create something this legendary. Being the legend he is and his main character energy, Vinnie prefers a one dog household where the spotlight stays exactly where it belongs. On him and him alone. Just the way he likes it! Vinnie is a bowling ball powered by Wreck-it-Ralph energy and has a sour patch kid personality. First he’s chaos, then he cuddles. Fair warning though, most cuddles with Vinnie do end up with you covered in slobber, hair, and him very heavily breathing on you with his hot breath LOL. You gotta be someone that likes that type of affection. He stomps, snorts, and accidentally (debatable) redecorates your living room, so best of luck to your pillows. Consider him equal parts demolition crew and sugar-coated sweet heart. He is somewhat energetic for a bulldog mix but it makes for a good balance of goofy-boy with couch-potato tendencies. True to his bulldog nature, he’s better suited for short walks or backyard playtime rather than long-distance strolls anyway. A securely fenced yard would be ideal since he’s a curious explorer who likes to keep tabs on what’s happening outside. Are you someone that works from home? He’ll be great but hopefully you aren’t someone that is easily distracted by noises because Vinnie literally snores like a grown man and aren’t going to be bothered by his hot heavy breathing. Sweet boy just can’t help it but be noisey. On the brightside, you’ll never not know where he is because you will always hear him regardless of what he’s doing. Even when he’s sleeping LOL. With toys, he loves the squeaky toys and likes to conduct his very own squeak symphony with all his favorite toys. It’s quite comical. He also loves toys that he can turn into his own personal pacifier…We know, he’s a little weirdo and it just adds to his inner belief that he’s a toddler in a wrinkle suit. Vinnie is ready and waiting to find his perfect match: a family or person who appreciates his bulldog quirks and gives him the structure and security to thrive. In return for that he’ll make sure your life is never boring, filled with laughter, and hot breath snuggles. We are willing to test Vinnie Van Gogh with anything you need to ensure it's a perfect match. We can make anything happen! Just let us know. Ready to welcome a new furry friend into your life?

Story
Ever met a living, snorting, walking cartoon? That’s West Lee. He’s a professional back-talker, four legged tornado of joy, chaos, and pure Wreck-It Ralph energy. Absolutely no concept of personal space or consequences, built like a tonka truck, and he’s all about that mouthy, goofy, relentless affection. Basically, West Lee is a 60 lb toddler full of personality stuffed into a wrinkle suit. If you’re a bulldog lover, then you definitely know the type. If anything of this intrigues you, keep reading and watch his video below. You’ll either be insanely entertained or better yet, you’ll be wanting to bring this adorable menace home: https://youtu.be/NhKfqZn0o08?si=Bcr7wm3lZ8SCapUj Mr. West Lee is estimated to be around two-years-old and is a bulldog mix weighing in at 60 lbs. With rescues we cannot guarantee age or breed given we do not know their past. This guy has the looks of a bulldog and he certainly has the personality to go along with it. West Lee is a classic bulldog through and through- built like a solid brick, handsome as all-get-out, a little stubborn because he can be, and considers himself to be a “foodie.” He can smell food from a mile away too. How he does that with all those wrinkles, we have no idea but he does. He’s a mild-mannered sweetheart until a crinkle bag announces the hunger games. West Lee would probably even sell me for a chicken nugget and not feel bad about it if he could. So safe to say that once food is involved, all loyalty is up for negotiation. West Lee is a bowling ball powered by Wreck-it-Ralph energy and has a sour patch kid personality. First he’s chaos, then he cuddles. Fair warning though, most cuddles with West Lee do end up with you covered in slobber, hair, and him very heavily breathing on you with his hot breath LOL. You gotta be someone that likes that type of affection. He stomps, snorts, and accidentally (debatable) redecorates your living room, so best of luck to your pillows. Consider him equal parts demolition crew and sugar-coated sweet heart. He is not for the faint of heart or the faint of food hoarder LOL. He will get those snackies. He is somewhat energetic for a bulldog mix but it makes for a good balance of goofy-boy with couch-potato tendencies. True to his bulldog nature, he’s better suited for short walks or backyard playtime rather than long-distance strolls anyway. A securely fenced yard would be ideal since he’s a curious explorer who likes to keep tabs on what’s happening outside. Are you someone that works from home? He’ll be great but hopefully you have extra paper copies of anything important, have toys out for him to play with, and aren’t going to be bothered by his hot heavy breathing. Sweet boy just can’t help it but be noisey. Even with toys, he loves the squeaky toys and likes to conduct his very own squeak symphony with all his favorite toys. It’s quite comical. West Lee is ready and waiting to find his perfect match: a family or person who appreciates his bulldog quirks and gives him the structure and security to thrive.
