My story

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

If you’re looking for a dog who can lift your spirits, Hazel is your girl!

This sweet pup has a way of brightening every moment with her happy personality. From her soft little woof to say “hi” to the warm welcome she gives any guest, life is simply better with Hazel by your side. She’s a social butterfly at home, but when out on walks, she’s chill—no pulling to meet random strangers, which is perfect for us introverts who like to be selectively social. Plus, she walks beautifully on a leash, making every stroll a breeze!

Hazel is estimated to be just about 1 year old, weighing a compact 66 lbs of love. Her breed? Well, she’s rocking those classic Staffie features with maybe a sprinkle of Boxer charm in there, too. But whatever her mix, one thing’s for sure—she’s 100% perfect!



An ideal home for Hazel could look like a lot of things thanks to her easy-going approach to everything. Whether you’re looking for a family dog, a buddy for your current dog, or simply your new best-friend, Hazel is perfect for the role. The only way we would say she might not be the dog for you is if you won’t/don’t plan on expressing your affection for her. She isn’t starved of it but it is her love language. Snuggles, sweet-talk, or a little play-session, love fills her up! And she wants attention but isn’t pushy or jealous with other dogs or people. In return you will feel undoubtedly loved and adored beyond compare. I have tried hard not to use the word perfect to describe her but, just as good, is to acknowledge how well-balanced she is. Ill say she is a dream.

Watching Hazel enjoy life is like witnessing pure joy. Whether she’s playing with a toy or hanging out with other dogs, she radiates positivity. And you can't help but smile when she gets excited—her playful little bunny hops are the cutest! While she can be a little shy at first, that fades quickly as she embraces her happy, affectionate nature.

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.
