Story
*Currently fostered in Arlington, WA and ready for meet and greets!*
Well hi there! My name is Elsie Waller and I’m a 5 month old Aussie/pittie mix weighing around 25 lbs of pure cuteness!
I’m truly a social “butterfly … watch my video here:
https://youtube.com/shorts/4Jxr9G-ktdg?si=mMiZkQrdZycY4goA
My breed is a guess … it always is with rescue!
I love to be where my people are and enjoy snuggles and cuddling. I would enjoy a home with kids as I am very gentle.
I love other dogs big and small and do well in playgroups. I love to say hi to other dogs and would enjoy dog parks! I would also do well in a home as the only dog!
My foster mom reports I am learning to use the doggy door and am making progress on potty training.
I can be a little vocal if I’m hungry or want my foster moms attention so this would be important information for apartment or condo dwelling applicants.
I love to go for car rides and would enjoy going on errand runs or road trips!
Oh, and I also occasionally counter surf so keep them clear! I go crazy over enrichment toys!
I will need to be fed separate from other dogs because I will resource guard my food.
I would also love a home with a fenced in yard where I can run and play anytime!
I will need a patient person/family that can continue working with me on crate and house training as well as my leash skills and basic commands.
It would be ideal if my new person/family works home or has a hybrid work schedule so I’m not left at home all day. I’m still a baby after all!
Does Elsie sound like the girl for you?

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.
