Here's what the humans have to say about me:
You’re about to hit the jackpot with Cafi Padilla, the goofiest, most lovable boy you’ll ever meet! This 2-year-old possible Pitbull-Lab mix is a total heart-stealer, with his golden-brindle coat and soft, soulful eyes that’ll have you instantly smitten. But Cafi’s magic is far more than just looks—he’s a bundle of pure love, joy, and cuddles waiting to bring endless happiness to your home. 💛
This sweet boy is all about spreading love and affection, and when he’s not busy charming everyone he meets, you’ll find him snuggled up next to you, begging for belly rubs and doling out kisses. Cafi lives for cuddles, and once you experience his warm, goofy energy, you’ll wonder how you ever got by without him. 😍
And talk about fun! Whether he’s fetching a ball, swimming, or mastering the art of sliding down the swing set (yes, this boy loves the swing set!), Cafi’s playful spirit will fill your days with laughter. He’s fantastic with kids (recommended for those 7 and up due to his size), great with other dogs, and even cat-approved by the Three Little Pitties behavior team! With proper introductions, he’ll settle in perfectly, no matter what kind of furry family members he might be joining. Or, he’ll happily be your one and only, soaking up all the attention himself!
Cafi is the ultimate adventure buddy, always up for a hike, a camping trip, or a long walk around the neighborhood. He’s excellent in the car and learning to walk like a gentleman on a leash, so he’s your go-to companion for any family outing. And once the day’s adventures are done, he’ll be right there for some epic cuddle time. 🐾
While Cafi is potty trained and has mastered crate training, he’ll thrive with a family committed to continuing his training and socialization. He’s still young, and with your love and guidance, he’s going to blossom into the most well-mannered and affectionate dog you could ever imagine. And trust us—he’ll thank you with endless kisses and unwavering loyalty. 💖
If you’re ready to have your heart stolen and your life filled with laughter, Cafi is your guy. We’ll work with you to make sure he’s the perfect fit for your family, no matter what you need to make the magic happen!
With love and tail wags,
Cafi’s Friends at Three Little Pitties Rescue 🐶

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 $800.00 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
Discounts on Embark DNA test kit- $30 off of Breed ID test & $50 off of Breed ID plus Health test

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.
