You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Hi! My name is Ansley and I am an 11 month old Australian Kelpie! I am a young, energetic girl and I’m looking for a fun family to keep up with me! Let’s go on a hike! Or a run! Or play tug! I’m up for anything I am great with dogs, but I have a strong herding instinct and will tell them where I think they should go. Having an outlet for my energy would be amazing for me! I would be amazing at agility or sports! I am also good with humans, but, again…herder. So kids over about 10 would probably be best for me. Although with the right family, I’d probably be fine with any age! I am crate trained and VERY close to potty trained – I’ll need some reminders in my new home but should pick it up quickly! Do you think I could be the girl for you?

🐾 Meet Valentina! 🐾 Hello, I'm Valentina, a bundle of love and joy waiting to fill your life with affection and companionship! I adore giving hugs and kisses—they're my favorite things in the world! Playing is my second nature; I get along wonderfully with other dogs. Plus, I'm already potty trained—yipee! I'm still mastering the art of leash walking, but I'm catching on quickly. Car rides are a challenge for me as I sometimes get carsick, but with a bit of medication from my foster mom, I handle them much better. I'm optimistic that with some patience and practice, I'll love road trips as much as I love everything else! I have a massive heart for humans, especially children. I thrive on interaction with people of all ages and can't wait to become a part of your family. Whether you're active and adventurous or prefer quiet times at home, I'm flexible and eager to adapt to your lifestyle. Choose me, Valentina, as your forever friend, and I promise to stick by your side with unwavering loyalty and endless affection. Let's start our journey filled with love, play, and cuddling! 🐶❤️ Application link: https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/animal/62cc8e128b02916730334440/658c79119995c6d8ba021874 Please email priya@threelittlepittiesrescue.org with any questions.

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!

Story
The first thing I could see when I met Olive was a nurturing nature, seeing her with smaller dogs and kids only reinforced that. So it was no surprise when I learned she was a recent mama who beautifully protected and nurtured her baby into a happy and healthy puppy . Watching them together was heartwarming and we all know that puppy was loved by her and soon will find a family of its own. So let me tell you more about Olive in hopes she wins your heart and can have her own happy and healthy future, she deserves it! Olive is estimated to be about three-years-old, she weighs 57 lbs and is full grown. We believe she may be an Australian Kelpie/Lab mix but with rescue it is always, at best, an educated guess. No matter her breed or her history, this girl is a great companion and a beautiful friend. She has a gorgeous, soft coat, attentive eyes, and the happiest tail to prove how happy she is. I could see Olive in a home with a yard so she could explore, bound around and feel stimulated by her environment. This girl loves a good playtime with a canine companion and her stamina shows when a good game of chase ensues. She isn’t afraid to let loose and get vocal when she is having fun, you will hear her sounds of fun, encouragement, and occasional correction. One thing that sets Olive apart is her incredible rapport with kids. She has a gentle eye and is absolutely at ease in the company of the noise and chaos that kids typically create. Whether it's playing tag or cuddling up for storytime, Olive's demeanor and patient nature make her a great companion for children of all ages. Although great with kids, people of all types, other dogs, Olive isn’t much of a cat person. Its possible she has never been around a cat which creates a natural curiosity, we think she would be best suited for a cat-free home. Lets be honest, not everyone is a cat person. In the vast world of dogs, Olive Karma is one great dog- loyal, loving, and one who loves a good snuggle just as much as a good adventure. She can't wait to explore the world from the end of your leash.

Story
Hi, I am Shinzo: an 9.5 yr old, 70 lb male McNab mix. The first word that comes to mind when you see me is regal, being poised in my stature, walk and behavior, but you might catch me playfully hopping with my dog buddies.When we first meet I need a moment to stand back to check you out just to determine if you're friend or foe, but don't worry...I'm a love bug after I've made my decision and see that you are worthy. I get along great with the dogs in my foster house, and I am great with kids. (Sorry, I don't like cats though.) I prefer not to bark (even when others are) as I am too well-mannered, but I have a wonderful deep bark if needed. I already know how to use a doggy door and am completely trained to do my business outside. Unlike some of my herding friends, I'm not hyperactive. I do need room and time to exercise (wait till you see how good I am on a leash!) but I also enjoy a nice nap at your side. I might nudge you with my nose if I feel you're ignoring me, but you'll think it's super cute. Don't fret, this regal boy doesn't require a throne...just a home and family where I can show you what a perfect dog I am to love and to love you.Dogs are not placed on a first-come, first-serve basis. We strive to find the perfect home for each animal. Applications may take up to 48 hours to process. All CAWS animals are fixed, microchipped, and vaccinated. His adoption fee is $100.

Story
With floppy ears, Luke, age 3, is an adult cattle dog mix with perpetual puppy cuteness and sweetness. Weighing in at 35 pounds, he likes to spend his days cuddled up in a comfy spot staring out the window and is always up for an outdoor adventure. Truly the best of both worlds! Luke has impeccable indoor manners (crate and house trained) and would spend all day curled up by your side if able (it cannot be stressed enough how much he adores people). He is a very smart and treat motivated pup. Luke is working on his leash skills and not getting overly excited around other dogs and with a proper and slow introduction he does well, but truly thrives in home as the only dog. He would love for his forever family to continue his training to support him in being the best pup he can be. Could that be you? Dogs are not placed on a first- come, first-served basis.

Story
Chestnut is a 9-year-old, white, black and brown 29.6 pound eloquent and majestic Queensland Heeler. She is totally house and crate trained, gets along with all the other dogs in her foster home, male and female, big and small. She's not a big barker but when out in the back yard will do an occasional bark with other dogs or people to let them know she is there. Chestnut came to be a CAWS dog because she was found as a stray, no collar, tag or chip. She now has a CAWS chip and will forever be safe and secure. We did blood work and it is perfect, whew. Miss Chestnut will chew on your snow boots or shoes if you leave them lying around, so be sure to put them where they belong and give her toys and chewies of her own to chew on. She will also chew through a leash so need to be sure she is not left unattended. Chestnut knows sit and shake. She takes treats very gently. She likes to ruff up the bed into the middle of the room. She is offered to get up on the couch but she does not want to, prefers the floor or her trampoline bed. Chestnut is a perfect assistant during the work week for her foster mom while she works. She rides wonderfully in the car. Chestnut is her foster mom's shadow in the house. This magnificent lady just needs to find the home she can call her own, which she is so deserving of. Chestnut would probably be okay without another dog but she tends to try to play so preferably a home with another dog. If you are looking for a glorious gal to be an unconditional friend, please make arrangements for a meet and greet.
