***Fostered in the Greater Seattle area and ready for Meet & Greets!***
Looking for a pup with some serious moves? Meet Fondu, the 5-month-old Lab/Pittie mix (though it’s always a fun guessing game!) with a stunning brindle coat in classic black and white. This little lady is as graceful as her name suggests—she loves to run and jump with her foster doggy sibling, showing off her ballet-like skills! 💃
Fondu is super cuddly and will happily snuggle up after a playful game of fetch. She’s already mastering the art of potty and crate training like a pro! Not only does she love to play, but Fondu is also quite the chatty pup who enjoys “talking” with her human pals. Fondu has attended a few of our local adoption events since her arrival and has done great! She has showed off how well behaved she is and loved playing with the other dogs and greeting all the people!
Fondu was the star of playtime with her siblings, who have now found their forever homes, so she’s dreaming of a doggy sibling to call her own! A doggy sibling would be great to teach Fondu all the things she needs to know and guide her into becoming the Principal Dancer in no time! She’s wonderful with kids and still young enough to be introduced to cats. If adopted into a home with a cat we do recommend the cat be dog-savvy and the adopter practice slow patient introductions. She has met a cat before with some success, but it would still be new for her.
Fondu would thrive in a quieter residential setting with a yard to run and play in. City life makes her a bit anxious, so she’d love a peaceful space where she can relax and enjoy being a pup. A playful doggy sibling to share her energy and adventures would be a dream!
Fondu is still young so she will need a family that can commit to training, socialization and all the dedication puppyhood requires. Her new family will need to continue with potty and crate training and daily exercise. Fondu's foster has been working with her on her crate training and now she is pretty fond of it- she eats her meals in her crate and is quite happy to do so. Fondu is very food motivated which is excellent for all types of training. We require a commitment from adoptive families to continue to crate train their new puppy. She will be perfect to go on walks and hikes or show off around your neighborhood- being sure to greet everyone she meets!
If you're ready for cuddles, ballet leaps, and endless fun, Fondu Joyful Ballet Dancer is the pup for you! 🎀🐾

The adoption fee is $825.00 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.
