Story
***NEEDS FUREVER HOME*** Currently in Kimberly, ID INDIE appears to be about a 2.5 year old, 35-lb kelpie mix with good energy and was a very good momma to her 7 puppies. INDIE is a very affectionate and fun dog. She plays with toys and chases balls and sticks. She loves playing with water (see videos). She loves being in the backyard where she can scan the perimeter for the neighbor dogs. When she hears them come out, she runs to the fence, wags her tail and whines to get them to come run the fence with her. She loves to spy on them through knot holes in the fence. INDIE is food-motivated and very eager to please. She is not a great walker in the neighborhood. She enjoys our walks, but she pulls on the leash. And when she hears a dog up ahead or sees people getting out of a car, she pulls harder. She wants so badly to go see what is going on and meet new people and dogs. She used to try and chase cars as they drove by, but now she stops walking and watches them drive by. She also loves to chase squirrels and birds. INDIE loves everyone she meets, especially children. She had a little bit of excitatory pee the other day when meeting the neighbor kids. She plops over and offers her belly to everyone she meets. But she can be a little mouthy when she is excited and someone is petting her (puts your hand/arm in her mouth), but she does not bite - it is just a little surprising. This could be because of the herding dog in her. INDIE has a healed shoulder injury from her original living situation where she was a working ranch dog, but it does not slow her down a bit. She is not crate-trained, but is well-behaved when I leave her home alone in the house. She sits by the front window and watches for me to return. She loves looking out the window to see what is going on. Whether you left the house for 2 minutes just to take the trash out, or you were gone for hours, she will greet you with great excitement when you come back in. Now that her puppies have been adopted, INDIE is being a good sport as the only dog in the house, but she would love to be a part of a family and have a playmate of her own.

She was turned in by her owner to the rescue with a healed (formerly broken paw ), pregnant, and living outside. Momma INDIE is so very grateful to be out of the blizzard conditions when she was rescued. She had even dug a hole in the frozen ground to keep her seven pups warm and safe before she was rescued.

Story
***NEEDS FOSTER or FUREVER HOME*** Currently in Jerome boarding kennels, ID Young ~1 year old, 37-lb WINNY gave birth to 6 pups on 1/18/24 WINNY loves men and shows them her belly after doing a wiggly butt walk up to them for attention. WINNY loves sitting in the front fenced yard and watching the people go by. She is a good alert dog. WINNY is good with kids (gentle mouth) and pups and is very submissive when meeting other dogs. WINNY will do better without a cat in the house. WINNY is now housebroken and knows basic commands. She walks straight out to potty area without a leash. She will run the fence chasing cars as they drive by. Update from recent foster home: Yes, WINNY is energetic. Foster has been trying to train her from jumping by putting her palm low to touch for praise or treat. WINNY has been enjoying playing fetch in the backyard. She loves Squeaky toys. She throws balls up by herself to entertain herself. She is smart and very treat-motivated. She just wants to be with you. She may chew out of boredom. She knows some obedience commands, but doesn't really sit because of her leg, but because she wants to please, she lays down for you. Her belly has shrunk back nicely. Update from a temp foster home: "She is doing really well with my dogs. She’s demonstrated some resource guarding with food and toys but really took to correction well. Since yesterday she hasn’t snapped or growled at anyone over food or toys. She is such a smart and snuggly girl. Today and yesterday I gave her more free reign on her own in the living room. My other fosters were napping in their crates. She did really well not getting into things around her. She stuck to chewing on things she knew were for her and didn’t go after anything else. She is an expert at holding her own with husky style play. Hahah she is so small she gets launched sometimes but she LOVES it." We are thinking that she would do well with an EasyWalk harness that connects at her chest.

Story
Valentina is a once-in-a-lifetime perfect dog. She’s the perfect size around 42 pounds, of a lovely temperament- a sweet 2 year old girl with a charming sense of humor and a huge goofy smile! She has this beautiful, show-worthy soft coat that makes us suspect Australian Kelpie as her breed, but of course, with all rescue dogs, exact age and breed are always a mystery. Valentina is joy incarnate, she’s curious and exploratory, playful and snuggly, and she has an unmatched fondness for people. Valentina’s sense of humor is immediately noticeable in her silly faces and happy dances. She likes to splay her toes out as far as they go, and take these hilarious exaggerated, wide, fast steps- you can see her happy dances in her video! Valentina is a gentle player that takes great care of her stuffies, a gentle treat-taker and a hugger. She’s a very considerate and affectionate girl! Valentina loves people, and does great in public spaces, charming everyone around her. Valentina is great with children, and loves to play with other dogs. She is a fairly relaxed girl, and on the smaller side at around 42 pounds. Valentina would do well in a large family home, or a small apartment, with some daily outdoor time to keep her happy and healthy. Valentina has a touch of car sickness, but her foster mom has found that medication is very effective in curbing those symptoms! With a little practice, and her medication, Valentina could grow to love car rides! Whether you're active and adventurous or prefer quiet times at home, Valentina is flexible and eager to adapt to your lifestyle. The most important thing to Valentina is that she gets the correct amount of belly rubs in a day. If you're searching for the perfect addition to your family, look no further than Valentina – the most loving, gentle, sweet girl. We are willing to test this dog with anything you need us to in order to ensure she’s the perfect match for you! We can make anything happen! Just let us know.

The adoption fee is $700.00 and includes all vetting: DAPP (2 to 4 depending on age and time in the program), Bordetella, Rabies vaccine, multiple broad spectrum deworming treatments, spay/neuter, flea prevention, 2-6 months of heartworm preventative according to age, heartworm testing and heartworm treatment if applicable, extended medical such as dentals, eye surgeries, and orthopedic surgeries prior to adoption when suggested by our partner vets, a microchip with free lifetime registration, a high quality nylon Martingale collar for dogs over 4 months old, a health certificate deeming the pup healthy for travel, cost of transport*, and many priceless years of love and loyal companionship! 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 provide weekly socialization programs for our dogs through playgroups and group leash training classes available to all dogs in our adoption program, and Doggy Sleepover, Doggy Day Out, and Ambassador programs for our boarding dogs. There is a professional dog trainer on staff to provide support for our fosters and dogs, and an off-site dog trainer for dogs that need more extensive behavior modification. This helps us learn deeply about every dog, prepare them for adoption, and ultimately match them with loving families. 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. Follow our rescue journey through the links below! https://www.threelittlepittiesrescue.org/ https://www.facebook.com/threelittlepittiesrescue https://www.instagram.com/threelittlepittiesrescue *Due to the rising cost of fuel and transportation expenses, there will be an additional $62 surcharge for transport.
