Joey is your dog’s next best friend! This sweet sunshiney boy absolutely adores other dogs, and people too! He’s snuggly, sweet and such a gentle soul. He’s a true forever puppy, goofy, silly, and absolutely precious.
We think Joey is a Labrador, pit bull mix, around 5 years old. He is a rescue, so his exact age and breed are unknown to us and cannot be guaranteed.

Joey is so loving, through and through, which makes him an exceptionally eager-to-please dog. He’s treat motivated and a gentle treat taker too. With this in mind, we’ve been able to work with him on his leash skills, and teach him basic commands. Any further training with Joey will be enjoyable and rewarding for both of you!
Here at the rescue, Joey has met hundreds of dogs, and he is amazing with all of them. He’s got a goofy playstyle, and he’s so leggy that it makes his run a little silly. He can get rowdy at times, and would do best with a moderate energy canine playmate in the home.
Joey loves all of life’s simple pleasures. He loves splashing around in the pool, sunbathing and chasing balls. He adores stuffed toys, especially the teeny tiny ones. He loves chewing his nylabones and he especially loves treats! He’s a happy go lucky boy ready for his forever family.
Joey’s perfect home will have at least one loving human to call his own, maybe some doggy siblings, a backyard made for zoomin’ and lots of snuggles. Joey is such a loving and naturally happy dog, to know him is to love him. If you have any questions about Joey or would like us to test him for a specific setting or detail, please be in touch! We can make most anything happen to ensure he is the correct fit for you and your life!

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.
