Story
Let me tell you about this super special gal, Toots McGee. She is the absolute cutest and has the personality to match! She wins the miss congeniality contest by far. Not to mention she's cute as a button and she's teeny tiny! One of the first times I ever met Toots she immediately melted into to me and rested her head into my hands and was instantly giving me kisses. She absolutely loves affection and believes any affections is good affection. Especially booty scratches, she loves to lean into her people and tilt her booty towards you asking for those booty scratches. And oh my heck this girls face is oh so squishy!!

Toots McGee is believed to be a Bulldog/Staffy mix approximately 3 years old and currently weighs 52 lbs and is full grown. We do not believe she is going to get much bigger if at all. She is a rescue dog and with any rescue, it's always a mystery and we cannot guarantee breed or age. Toots is very dog friendly and this girl loves to play! Her play style is definitely on the rough and rowdy side and very typical of the bully breed. She tumbles, bulldozes, plays chase, rolls, and she'll tackle you with kisses to end her play time. She also did really well with a smaller dog that was about 25 lbs and the did great together. The smaller dog is use to more rough and rowdy play as well and didn't mind her play style. Toots isn't play all the time, she knows when to be calm and from what we can tell she has shown to have great house manners so far. Which makes us believe that she is potty trained. Although she may need a reminder about where the appropriate potty places are once in her forever home. Toots would do best in a home with a backyard where she can romp around, smell the roses, and simply enjoy the fresh air. She also would love to join you on walks in the park! She's a social butterfly and would love to go explore with you. Toots is very eager to please, super loyal, and treat motivated! All things that will help make any additional training that much more enjoyable with this girl than it already would be. She is a joy to be around and is the type of dog that will instantly make your day brighter. We are willing to test Toots McGee with anything you need us to in order to ensure it’s the perfect match for you! We can make anything happen! Just let us know!

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.
