Story
Dumped as puppies near the SPCA PV sanctuary, Maple and her siblings began life as abandoned and are now in shelter care. These gorgeous pups are looking for a lucky new start with a family to love them. There are mixed breed, possibly pointer x cattle dog, but really we like to think of them as Mexican special breed of perfection. They are expected to grow to about 40 lbs. They were born in December 2023. They've been a hit at the local market and out with volunteer walkers - who wouldn't love them??! Maple is good with dogs and cats. They're making the best out of shelter life, but they would really love a happy ever after. The pups are in Mexico with flight options to Seattle, Edmonton, Calgary and Vancouver. They are healthy and medium energy. If you think you might be a good fit, you can email pvcaadoptions@gmail.com, or go to our online application: https://forms.office.com/r/b1Fkq3u4zw

These pups are in Bellingham, Washington too!

🐾 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.

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.

🐾 Meet Baloo! 🐾 Introducing Baloo, an adorable pup with a teddy bear vibe, searching for his forever home. This affectionate, sensitive soul adores people and eagerly wants to become your best friend. Baloo's favorite activities include cuddling on the couch, exploring outdoors, and playing with his plush toys and enrichment puzzles. He's also quite the athlete, enjoying runs in the yard and playful wrestling with his sister, Winnie. He is also excellent with kids. Baloo is a food lover, making training sessions particularly effective. He's always eager to earn a treat! He's progressing excellently with his crate and potty training and shows promise as a well-mannered companion. While Baloo has yet to meet cats, he's shown to be adaptable and friendly, so a proper introduction could likely be easily managed. Baloo's new family should be ready to continue his journey in training and socialization. He thrives on companionship, displaying separation anxiety when alone but doing well with someone in the room, indicating his deep bond with his family. Due to his Velcro-dog nature, he loves staying close by; whether working at your desk or cooking in the kitchen, Baloo will be your shadow, offering calm companionship outside his crate. Though not yet fully vaccinated and thus limited in outdoor adventures, Baloo already shows he's made for a life filled with activity. A yard to call his own would be Baloo's paradise, providing him the space to flourish. He may be a bit shy on the leash and needs further encouragement to gain confidence, but with his sensitivity and eagerness to please, he's a quick study. Baloo is at his best with his family, seeking out cuddles or lounging contentedly nearby. He'll even offer a gentle head in your lap or a paw on your shoulder to show love. This pup's ideal life is one where he can balance his two favorite things, adventure, and relaxation, always in the company of his beloved humans. If a sweet, loyal companion with loads of love to offer sounds perfect for you, and you're ready for a rewarding journey of growth and bonding, Baloo is ready to fill that role. Prepare for an affection-filled life—Baloo will shower you with kisses and loyal companionship, ready to be the loving heartbeat of your home. 🐾 Application link: https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/animal/62cc8e128b02916730334440/65f266808b00ab8e67042313 Please email Tim@threelittlepittiesrescue.org with any questions.

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!
