Maribella is ready to be your family dog. She could be the perfect running partner, dog park going, play date loving best friend you never knew you needed. She can also just be your quiet napping companion while you work. Or your cuddle buddy/little spoon! She loves to check in with her people, making sure she is behaving and coming in for a boop here and there. She is trainable simply because of her people pleasing nature. She loves to boop people and other doggies with her cute nose rather than give kisses. It’s so funny! We love everything about this girl from her blue grey coat to her little cow lick down the top of her neck! She’s super soft and she has a little bit of a ridge down her back! Watch Maribella here: https://youtu.be/f9fzCgCaJDU?si=yblJtVDDTQwy9rep Maribella is great in the house and not destructive. She is quiet, not a lot of barking or whining, acts like she has lived in a home environment previously and has very good manners. She does not have any accidents in her kennel or free roaming from what we’ve seen. While her foster works on the computer she is a good girl and naps on the floor. She would make a perfect work from home companion! When you’re sitting there working on your computer every once in a while, she will want to show love, so she will jump up to give you a hug or she will try to slowly crawl into your lap. She is extremely loving and affectionate. She knows how to sit on command and loves rolling onto her back for belly rubs. This girl loves meeting new doggy friends. She gets really excited at first, so give her a chance to show you what a good girl she is. She has more of a rowdy play style, so we could see her fitting in a home with higher energy doggy siblings, or dogs that don’t mind showing her the right ways to behave. She became instant best friends with the dogs she met here at the rescue. Maribella loves praise more than anything in the world, so she will often look to her people to get approval throughout play time, which is great! She will be very tuned in with her person, whoever that may be. Could it be you? Maribella is one of those girls that is going to be deeply loyal, caring, and attentive to her family. She does all of this while still being respectful of new people without being overly eager. Maribella is very gentle with kids! She hung out with her fosters son, age 7 and seemed very comfortable from the beginning. With no hesitation at all, she wanted to give him kisses. She’s pretty confident, she doesn’t seem scared of anything, including when her fosters young son was throwing a balloon around in the air and hitting her with it. Her tail continued to wag. We could see her being a family dog with kids. She’s extremely affectionate, she’ll slip in gentle kisses here and there. Maribella really wants to hug you and she’ll put her head on your shoulder for a really long hug if you will have her. She will look up at you with her puppy dog eyes looking into yours, and wants to give and get love. Even with strangers that she meets out in public. She loves everyone she meets, especially the attendants working at pet stores because she knows they have all the tasty treats and are definitely dog lovers. Speaking of public outings, Maribella loves to be social and go places. Some of her favorite places are the local neighborhood park and the pet store! She loves going to the park and seeing all the squirrels (she dreams about chasing them), and watching all the passerby’s and smelling all the smells. She does good with other dogs passing her or when there is another dog near by not was she startled or concerned about joggers, mom’s passing by with strollers, kids saying hello to her, or even the excitement at the splash pad area. She was just a sweet little lady happy to be out enjoying the sunshine. We are happy to test this girl with nothing you need us to in order to ensure it’s a perfect match. We can make anything happen! Just let us know. Ready to apply? Click here: https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/animal/62cc8e128b02916730334440/67eaa83ddc1c45bf050374c0 Questions?

There's nothing that I love more than a big dog with a gentle soul and one that is total sweetheart. Polly-Anna, Polly Pocket, Polly Pittie, Polly-wog, the cheeky nicknames are endless! And the names are all as cute and sweet as she is. She has that special spark in her golden brown eyes that instantly draw you in making every moment with her feel unique. She's the kind of dog that wins you over instantly with her loyalty, gentle nature, loving spirit, and goofy personality. Whether she's showing off her funny antics (rolling around on her back getting that perfect itch spot or playing hide and seek in the curtains), curling up for some snuggles, or gazing up at you with those soulful eyes, you'll quickly see she is in a league of her own and will be that dog that you will never be able to forget. f you are looking for quiet companionship and playful charm, this lovable lady is ready, waiting, and available. Fall in love with Polly here: https://youtu.be/tAujrq717ug?si=VSGvkrZMLbhPME8o Estimated to be around 8 or 9 years old and weighing about 50 pounds, Polly is the perfect example of mellow maturity. While we think she might be a pittie mix—maybe with a touch of Lab—her true breed and exact age is anyone’s guess, but what we do know is she’s 100% lovable, huggable, good girl. Don’t let her age fool you, though—Polly still gets the zoomies now and then and will happily share a playful moment before curling up next to you for cuddles. Polly is fortunate to be waiting for her adoption day in the home of a loving foster. This is wonderful for so many reasons. This gives us a front-row seat to the day to day girl Polly is while she gets to learn and enjoy the rhythm of home life. So far we know she loves cuddles on the couch, is very adoring of her person, enjoys standing in a baby pools to cool her paws, and will gently carry around a toy in her mouth. Her foster mom has shared, she’s a dream in her crate, settling in quietly without barking or whining and has wonderful house manners, never getting into things she shouldn't be. It doesn't take much to make Polly happy, all she needs is a cozy bed or couch to lay on, an open lap to live out her dream of being a lap dog, a few treats, and a couple of toys. That's it, the list is short with her. She's the perfect companion if you work from home because she's quiet and not constantly needing affection or to be entertained. She'll happily lay next to you while you work, look out the window, take a nap, or chew on a toy. Only coming up to you every so often for affection. She'll also be great if you are someone that has to go in the office for a few hours. Polly will be patiently waiting for you to come home with kisses locked and loaded. Overall, she's an easy going and laid back princess. On top of everything else, she loves a car ride with the wind in her face! Just call her your passenger princess. Polly would thrive in a calm, quiet home with a family who understands her laid-back nature. She’s happy to take short walks or enjoy a little time outdoors, but she doesn’t need a yard to be happy. Even though Polly is good on leash and redirects easily when needed, she would love suburb or country life over anything else. As we all age, the quiet life becomes the dream life! Polly gets along well with other dogs, but as a mature lady, she appreciates calm companions who respect her relaxed vibe. When introduced to new dogs she calmly shared space with small interactions here and there. Overall, its easy to see the Polly is for the people and will be more than happy as a solo-dog. A cat-free home would also be ideal, but Polly has done wonderful with everything else, enjoying kids and car-rides Polly is an easy, lovable dog who asks for little but gives so much in return.

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!

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?
