My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Everest Junie, known as “EJ” around the rescue, is a truly special girl. Resilient, loyal, brave, incredibly smart and so good with other dogs. So innocent and precious, beautiful and hopeful.

We suspect Everest Junie to be a Husky mix, around 1 year old and 40lbs. She is a rescue, so her exact age and breed are unknown to us and cannot be guaranteed.

Growing is actually most of what EJ does. EJ was a street rescue, found begging for pizza. When she arrived at the rescue, the one word to describe her would be “fearful.” EJ was scared of the leash, the house, the people, the everything. In the months since, EJ has grown so much. She allows people to pet her now, she risks it for the biscuit- taking treats right out of our hands these days.

Fall in love with EJ here:


Everest Junie has discovered so much in her time with us, and here are some of her favorite things: ice cream, beef jerky, squeaky toys, couches, soft beds, and other dogs. EJ is incredible with other dogs. She reads social cues so well, and knows exactly what to do with them. She has a fun and goofy playstyle that you can see in her video! EJ does so well with other dogs that we use her as an assessment dog. This means that EJ greets new intake dogs, and teaches them that the rescue is a safe place, while teaching us humans about the new intake dog. Everest has saved hundreds of canine lives by assisting with assessments.

Here at the rescue, EJ does well in her crate. She’s quiet and calm, and even sticks her nose through the bars every morning to get a “boop” from her favorite staff member. She doesn’t have accidents in the house, or in her crate. On leash, she’s fairly easy. Her leash manners will need some polishing, but she does have a strong positive association with the leash.

EJ has a few humans that she’s grown to trust, and she’s so loyal to those people. Everest Junie is still a shy girl, she has been a domestication case for us since her arrival. She’s growing more and more confident with people every day, but as a puppy, she knew no loving humans. This means that she’ll need extra decompression time, our behavior team speaks at length about her specific needs in her video. Our behavior team is prepared to have an in-depth discussion with her adopter about her needs. Everest Junie has always been fearful of us humans, but she’s never been aggressive in response. EJ is an incredibly tolerant dog, and such a bright soul. She has a sweetness to her that will surely blossom once she’s settled into her forever home.

EJ’s perfect home is loving, patient and kind. EJ will need some doggy-siblings to teach her the ropes of a loving home. At the rescue, she has spent time with children as young as 3. She did well with these dog-savvy and respectful little ones. EJ ultimately just needs a soft place to land, and she will surely bloom into the most wonderful dog. She will love you so much for it.

We are willing to test EJ with anything you need us to in order to ensure she’s the perfect match for you. If you have any questions about her, her situation or her needs, please reach out to her adoption coordinator, who would be thrilled to have a discussion with you about this beautiful girl. Our behavior team is ready to have an in-depth discussion about EJ’s behavioral needs with her forever family.

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.
