Here's what the humans have to say about me:
This heart-stealing super-cutie is named Thomas. We love Thomas because he’s a total goofball, a very people-focused dog, so loving, amazing with other dogs, great at playing fetch, and kid friendly! He’s a great office companion too, and loves to lay on the floor and hang out while we work on our laptops. He’s a dreamy dog with so much love to give, ready for his forever family.
We believe that Thomas is around 2 years old, and a Pittie, retriever mix of some sort. Breed-wise, he’s really the best of both worlds. The retriever in him brings us a fun-loving fetch boy, and the pittie DNA brings a healthy dose of that people-loving, kid-loving, lap-dog-lifestyle. Thomas weighs in at a snuggly 63 pounds, carrying most of that weight in his long legs and big ears.

Thomas is a people’s dog, through and through. He craves human connection like no other, and gets so much fulfillment from just coexisting with humans. He is so gentle with people, no hard tail whacks or pushy paws. Thomas is a snuggle bug and a big kisser, prepare to receive so much affection. Thomas is great with kids, and has spent time with children ages 3 to 13, getting along famously with all of them. Thomas has excellent house manners, he loves his couch time, and doesn’t have indoor accidents.
With other dogs, Thomas is a wonderful friend and an enthusiastic player. He will do well with doggy-siblings! He reads dog body language exceptionally well, and is so respectful of other dogs. Thomas loves to play with a dog who can chase, and keep up with him. His current foster has a female staffie named Maggie that he loves to floor wrestle with.
Thomas is super smart, treat motivated and highly trainable. He knows a handful of commands already, “sit,” “down,” and of course, “fetch,” among others. Thomas is a gentle treat taker too, so training him will be enjoyable for both of you. Thomas is a bit of a puller on a normal leash, so our behavior team has trained him to walk on a gentle lead. This is an alternative to a leash that fits dogs more like a horse halter, and Thomas walks perfectly this way. When you adopt Thomas, we’ll be sure to send a gentle lead home with you, included in your adoption fee!
An ideal home for Thomas that doesn't have lot in traffic in and out. He definitely likes to let people know that he is there when they knock at the door. We recommend a feline-free home for Thomas as he was a little too interested in our house cat here at the rescue. Thomas loves being outside, and loves to zoom, so we do recommend a fenced yard for Thomas.
If you have any questions about Thomas or would like us to test him for a specific setting or detail, please be in touch! We can make most anything happen to ensure he is the correct fit for you and your life!
Please email jessicak@threelittlepittiesrescue.org with any questions.
We facilitate adoptions across the US through our own internal transport to ensure the quality of care. We travel to WA, UT, OR, ID, VA, PA, OH, NY, CT, VT and Canada (Canadian adopters will need to pick up in Bellingham, WA or Brattleboro, VT for the eastern Canadian border)! Our pups travel in comfort with 24/7 care on our USDA licensed vehicles, including buses and cargo vans. You can join along on our private Facebook event page to follow their adventure, connecting you with other adopters and providing updates throughout their transport journey!
You will get to meet your new pup over a video call before signing paperwork, creating a fun and personalized adoption experience!
The adoption fee is $775.00 and includes all vetting (DAPP with booster, Bordetella, Rabies vaccine, multiple broad spectrum deworming treatments, spay/neuter, flea prevention, a 12 month heartworm preventative injectible, heartworm test and treatment if needed, a microchip with free lifetime registration, a high quality nylon Martingale collar, a health certificate deeming the pup healthy for travel, cost of transport*, and priceless years of love and loyal companionship!
We have over 15,000 successful adoptions so far and have excellent Google Reviews:
https://g.co/kgs/UQ5Pyai We care deeply about making the perfect match between dog and family for long term success.
Our rescue has a 2 acre property in Texas where we assess every animal with trainers on staff, we modify behavior as needed, and create individualized behavior plans to help prepare dogs for their future families including crate training, potty training, leash walking, etc. Our fosters are able to attend group trainings and socialization play groups to keep dogs adoption-ready. Our on-site trainers support the positive growth of our dogs and we enjoy seeing their progress!
Our commitment to comprehensive medical care sets us apart. We've received glowing feedback from veterinarians who commend our dedication to ensuring the health and well-being of every animal in our care with treatments that often go above and beyond.
Our adoption fees reflect the extensive care and resources that go into each animal we save. The adoption fee is a donation to the mission and goes far beyond getting a fully vetted pet.
The rescue’s hard costs alone for a healthy dog to go through our program typically range between $412 to $859, which includes boarding, food, medications, vaccines, and spay/neuter. For heartworm-positive dogs, hard costs are upwards of $1,120. Additionally, dogs requiring extended boarding, extra training, or extra medical care—such as dental work, vision care, or orthopedic care—can lead to expenses running into the thousands. Also, included in the fee are costs to cover transport up to the Pacific Northwest or East Coast. While adoption fees help cover part of these expenses, we want to emphasize that Three Little Pitties Rescue is not government funded.
It doesn’t stop there! Our adopters also receive these SPECIAL PERKS:
Extensive behavioral testing and information from trainers on our staff to ensure the perfect fit for your family

Did you know that the Greater Houston area faces some of the highest stray and overpopulation rates in the nation? We are a non profit charity. Our goal is simple— to reduce the homeless pet population through community outreach, free spay and neuter services, and by rescuing animals from the streets or overcrowded shelters where euthanasia due to lack of space is often the only option. The dog you've found online is not only lucky to be in our program, but also incredibly fortunate to have caught your eye. Thank you for considering adoption and for joining us in our mission!
Follow our rescue journey and connect with us on our website and social media platforms. Together, we can make a difference, one adoption at a time.
