Meet Ashley: The Cutest Little Cuddle Bug!
If you’re looking for a playful companion with an endless supply of love, Ashley is your girl! We think this adorable 2-year-old is Maltese and Mini Poodle mix, but we aren’t really sure so we call her our Texas Special- the very best breed! She is 15 pounds of sweetness, and she’s ready to fill your life with joy.
Home Behavior: Ashley is a playful little dynamo! She loves to jump around and shower everyone with puppy kisses, but she also enjoys long snuggles on your lap. With no sense of personal space, you’ll always have a fluffy friend by your side!
Energy Level: Ashley has a high energy level, bursting with playfulness after her cozy naps.
Social Skills: While she’s a little shy in new places, she opens up beautifully at home. She will need space and time to warm up to new people
Other Dogs: Ashley is currently living with 4 other dogs; 2 males (15 and 8 lbs) and 2 females (5 and 8 lbs). She loves to play with other dogs. She has not experience with big dogs yet.
Vocality: Ashley is quite vocal! She’ll bark at cars, people, and other animals outside, and she’s curious about everything. Inside, she might bark when someone comes in but quickly settles down for affection.
Affectionate Nature: Ashley shows her love through joyful jumps, playful licks, and snuggles. She loves to be close, often climbing into your lap or getting right in your face!
Cuddly or Independent? It’s a mix! Ashley enjoys cuddling but also likes to have her own space from time to time.
Car Rides: She loads and unloads easily but does get car sick, so short trips are best for her.
Leash Walking: Ashley can be a bit resistant at first but is smart and will quickly learn to walk well on a leash with some guidance.
Training: Ashley is a quick learner and very food motivated, making her easy to train with treats.
Ideal Home: Ashley would love a home with a yard where she can run and play. While she could do okay alone, she would be happiest with a furry playmate to keep her company.
Adventure Buddy: She’s eager for adventures with friends but may be a bit timid in new environments.
Family Friendly: Ashley is great with kids! She enjoys the attention of her human siblings, aged 9 and 12, and is currently living harmoniously with other small dogs.
Potty Trained? Yes! Ashley is potty trained but may need a little extra encouragement during her first few weeks in a new home.
Crate Trained? Yes! She’s crate trained, but she’ll appreciate a gentle nudge to go in.
If you’re ready to welcome this sweet, playful pup into your heart and home, Ashley can’t wait to meet you! ❤️🐾

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.
