🌟 Introducing Maxine – A Heart of Gold Wrapped in a Gorgeous German Shepherd 🌟
Hello, lovely people! My name is Maxine, and I am the quiet, loyal, and endlessly affectionate companion you’ve been waiting for. At 2 years old, I carry myself with a gentle grace that’s often described as “goddess-like,” and I’m ready to devote myself wholeheartedly to a family who will cherish me as much as I’ll cherish them.
I may be new to the cozy luxuries of home life—soft beds, plush toys, and those magical things called peanut butter and Greenies—but I’m already learning to savor every moment of comfort. I love nothing more than finding a warm spot next to you, soaking up your affection, and returning it tenfold. I’m gentle with children, calm around other dogs, and always ready to make new friends. My heart is as big as my loyalty, and once I’m yours, I’m yours forever.
When it comes to adventures, I’m a dream! I walk easily on the leash and stay focused on my people, so if you’re looking for a dog who might learn to walk off-leash and stay right by your side, I’m all in. Im not entirely sure what cars are for but I’m also a great travel companion—quiet as a mouse in the car and content in my crate. When it comes to other dogs, I warm up quickly and happily make new friends, especially those with a calm, gentle energy like mine. And if you happen to have feline friends, not to worry! I am respectful and oh-so-gentle when meeting cats, giving them space and ensuring everyone feels comfortable.
Whether it’s a stroll through the neighbourhood, a day out with family, or a quiet night in, I’m ready to be by your side, offering my calm presence and gentle companionship. If you’re ready to meet your forever friend and an all-around wonderful dog, look no further—I’m here, with a heart full of love, just waiting for my special people. 🐾💕
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.

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 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 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.
