Here's what the humans have to say about me:
If you love a classic German Shepherd, want to be adored, and have a dog that you are matchmaking a buddy for... you are right where you should be. If you have an idea of what type of dog a German Shepherd is, then you will know Oobie. Take all that classic German Shepherd, sprinkle a bunch of charm on it and give it a real good looking face and you have Oobie. In rescue we avoid saying a dog is a purebred anything, because who knows, but I would bet good money on Oobie being all 100% German Shepherd.
This boy comes preloaded with what I like to call the Deluxe Package which includes auto-sit on top of sit on command, down on command, he is fully house trained, is a solid dogs dog and is a gentleman to cats. As you would expect with a German Shepherd, he is loyal, protective, and loves real big! But this isn’t your “watch-dog,” sure he will make you feel protected but he also has the important role of fluff-exterminator in fluffy toys, and trying to out-race trucks on the other side of the fence. He knows one day he will win the fight against all the fluff and someday the truck will be too slow. Until then he carries on!
Oobie has been fortunate to be in a foster home where he quickly fit right in. He easily integrated into a pack of 8 dogs, found his favorite spot where he sleeps all night with no accidents or disturbances, and showed the resident cats, yes multiple, that he may be big but he is big-friend. The only thing he isn’t too sure about is the lawn mower and edger, but he has agreed to only bark from a distance a couple times then go back to loving and lounging.
A dream home for Oobie would include room to roam, he loves the freedom and feels obviously proud of his role as a dog with a home and people to keep company and care for. His current foster is a retired couple and we can all see how much Oobie glows living the home life with someone everyday. A homebody, with a bit of land they want kept an eye on, while being adored deeply by a dog is our idea of Oobie’s ideal match. If you happen to be familiar with German Shepherds and they way they “work,” that would be a double-cherry on top of perfection! Other dogs are not needed but if you have them Oobie will be an easy companion. A little insight into Oobie’s role at the rescue before he was with his foster- Oobie was what we call an Assessment dog. This is basically a gold star in the 3LP world, a dog that is so stable and consistent he is used to gauge an in-coming dogs personality towards other dogs. Inviting if they were friendly, neutral if they were unsure, aloof and avoidant if the dog shows signs of being aggressive. Oobie has helped save hundreds of dogs by being such a stable, non-conflict dog. He carved out a huge space in the heart of everyone at the rescue and if we start awarding dogs with our version of a Medal of Honor, we have discussed naming it an Oobie Service award.
If you are looking for an amazing dog to add to your pack and/or a loyal and adoring companion to have by your side- Oobie is perfection!

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.
