This gorgeous boy is Bennet! Great with other dogs, so people-friendly, cat tolerant and so much fun to be around. He’s also stunning- with a rich, glossy, deep black coat, white eyeliner and the cutest little white socks.
We estimate that Bennet is about 3 years old and may be a Lab, Pit Bull mix. Bennet is a rescue, so his exact age and breed are unknown to us and cannot be guaranteed. He weighs in around 67 lbs and is the perfect size for couch snuggles, and neighborhood walks!

Bennet is SO friendly, people-focused and loving. He truly loves nothing more than affection.
Bennet did amazing with other dogs here at the rescue, he quickly became best friends with another rescue dog named Maggie. They were quick to share little doggy kisses, happy hops, and big romps. They played chase, and spent some time in the pool together. So cute! Bennet is currently fostered in a home with another dog, who he gets along well with.
Our behavior team cat tested Bennet, he did well meeting our house cat Tom. He was interested in Tom, until Tom hopped out of reach. Bennet quickly shifted his attention back to his people, we believe Bennet is cat tolerant and could live with dog savvy kitties.
Bennet does well riding in the car. He can be coaxed into loading up with a few treats. He rides in the backseat with his foster mom, he’s an excellent copilot, doesn’t roam or show signs of anxiety or car sickness. Bennett is also fairly easy on leash, he’s still learning, but he’s catching on quickly. Bennett will be an amazing dog to take out and about, he’s so social and will appreciate meeting new friends, and sniffing new scents!
Bennet has excellent house manners already. In his foster home, Bennet matches energy very well. If you’re calmly hanging out on the couch, Bennet will snuggle up with you and enjoy a peaceful evening in front of the tv. If you get rowdy and playful with Bennet, he will quickly return the favor and get excited with you. Bennet is so much fun to be around. His foster mom reports that his favorite toy is a stuffed lion!
Bennet is a medium energy dog who will appreciate daily walks or outdoor exercise time to keep him happy and healthy. Bennet would do well in a home with other dogs, or any animal lovers home. While he hasn’t been kid-tested yet, we do believe he would do well with children based on his demeanor and temperament. Bennet is a happy-go-lucky go-with-the-flow kind of guy that could do well in just about any home- as long as it’s a forever home.
We are willing to test this dog with anything you need us to in order to ensure he’s the perfect match for you! We can make anything happen! Just let us know.

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!

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.

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.
