My story

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

Zero is the epitome of a lap dog, a small, love-seeking cutie who fits perfectly and loves to be in your lap. He is perfectly suited for a family home with little kids or someone in the quiet days of life. Zero is currently fostered in a bustling family home with 3 kids under the age of 8, and not only does he love them but he is gentle and so patient with them. He is as sweet as can be with a zen-level of peaceful ease. His simple presence is incredibly calming but when he comes and so gently and sweetly asks, with those big eyes, if he can sit in your lap… that’s where his charm shines. He even moves slow and steady, no urgency just presence. Take a look at this cuteness then come back to read more https://youtu.be/DbD12HAhrXA


This little guy is estimated to be 2 years old and weighs an adorable 13 pounds, the epitome of a little-bestie. With his mature, quiet confidence he is up for little dress up session and running errands with you, or relaxing at home on the couch. If your lap is available that is where he is going to want to be and it will surely be his favorite spot. Our observation tells us he is a Chihuahua mix. Of course, given he is a rescue we cannot guarantee breed or age but we do guarantee cuteness and lovability!

Zero’s dream home is simply based on love. A home with other pets, a family home with dog-loving kids, slow or busy days, a house with a yard or an apartment…that is any and all perfect for him! His needs are basic, it truly is a person to literally lean on and a soft place to lay. He would make a wonderful companion for someone in the slower days of life and could be a perfect small living-space companion, whether that’s an apartment, condo, or retirement community thanks to his quiet demeanor. He will offer gentle hello’s to anyone he meets without ever being pushy or insistent. He is a dream on leash and does well in the car so whether its walks or errands, he will be happy to be included. We all fell head over heels for him, his quiet presence and expressive face and we know you will too!

Available for adoption in NV, MT, CO,UT, ID, OR, WA, Canada, and now the East Coast! Our PNW dogs are brought to you in style by a beautiful USDA licensed semi-truck, equipped with air conditioning for comfort, two drivers, and 2 onboard attendants providing 24 hour care. Our East Coast route will travel in a private, air conditioned 3LP-run van transport.

Pick up day is unforgettable! You will get to follow along on their journey through a private FB Event page, where you will see photos, have the opportunity to connect with other adopters, and receive updates and constant communication along the way. One of our Adoption Coordinators can help to find the closest transport pick up location to you!

The adoption fee is $900 and includes all vetting as recommended by our doctor: DAPP (2 to 4 depending on age and time in the program), Bordetella, Rabies vaccine (if old enough), multiple broad spectrum deworming treatments, spay/neuter, flea prevention, 2 months of heartworm preventative, extended medical such as dentals, eye surgeries, and orthopedic surgeries prior to adoption when suggested by our partner vets, a microchip with free lifetime registration, a high quality nylon Martingale collar for dogs over 4 months old, a health certificate deeming the pup healthy for travel, cost of transport*, and many priceless years of love and loyal companionship!

*WE ARE TOLD THAT WE GO ABOVE AND BEYOND MEDICALLY. This is the feedback we tend to get, although we cannot guarantee perfect health.
*To fully vet a dog in the PNW or the NE at many vets it would be upwards of $1,800 just to fix, vaccinate, chip, etc. The adoption fees charged by our rescue do not cover our expenses medically for each animal, but we offset costs with donations. Your adoption fee is considered a donation towards actual costs.

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 6 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.
