Calling all rescue Husky lovers! Russell is everything that’s awesome about Huskies and he’s looking for his forever family. Russell is full of personality, vocal and goofy, he has great house manners and he’s so intelligent! He’s dog friendly, kid friendly, and such a good boy.
We believe that Russell is a Husky mix of some sort, but he is a rescue, so this is just our best guess! Russell is estimated to be around 2 years old, and he currently weighs in at 59 pounds.

Russell is a total dog lover. He is currently fostered in a home with multiple other dogs, and he’s doing great with them! Russell is a fan of all dogs, but gets along especially well with Huskies. He loves to play chase with other dogs, and you’ll know that he likes another dog when he comes in for a couple sweet kisses. We think he would do best in a home with a moderately playful dog to keep him company.
With people, Russell is adorable, affectionate and sweet. He rubs his head on your legs for pets, and in a group setting he will bounce around asking for pets from each person in the room. Kids are no exception to Russell’s people-loving disposition, he’s gentle, sweet and tolerant with little ones. Russell has spent time with kids as young as three years old, and we think he would do great as a family dog.
Russell is so full of personality and hilarity. He’s very charming and so easy to love! He’s vocal and can carry a conversation with just about anyone. He’s highly intelligent too- very trainable!
Another brag about Russell- he has AMAZING house manners. He’s respectful, sweet and careful of furniture. Here at the rescue, he sniffed around all of the pre-marked-perfect-pee-spots, but did not mark indoors.
Russell would make an excellent best friend for any animal lover looking to add some love and joy to their home. He would be a great family dog. He would love a home with a moderately playful doggy sibling or two. We do not recommend Russell for a home with kitties. We are willing to test Russell with anything you need us to in order to ensure he’s the perfect match for you! We can make most anything happen! Just let us know.

We facilitate adoptions across the US through our own internal transport to ensure the quality of care. We travel to WA, UT, OR, ID, VA, PA, OH, NY, CT, VT and Canada (Canadian adopters will need to pick up in Bellingham, WA or Brattleboro, VT for the eastern Canadian border)! Our pups travel in comfort with 24/7 care on our USDA licensed vehicles, including buses and cargo vans. You can join along on our private Facebook event page to follow their adventure, connecting you with other adopters and providing updates throughout their transport journey!
You will get to meet your new pup over a video call before signing paperwork, creating a fun and personalized adoption experience!

https://g.co/kgs/UQ5Pyai We care deeply about making the perfect match between dog and family for long term success.
Our rescue has a 2 acre property in Texas where we assess every animal with trainers on staff, we modify behavior as needed, and create individualized behavior plans to help prepare dogs for their future families including crate training, potty training, leash walking, etc. Our fosters are able to attend group trainings and socialization play groups to keep dogs adoption-ready. Our on-site trainers support the positive growth of our dogs and we enjoy seeing their progress!
Our commitment to comprehensive medical care sets us apart. We've received glowing feedback from veterinarians who commend our dedication to ensuring the health and well-being of every animal in our care with treatments that often go above and beyond.
Our adoption fees reflect the extensive care and resources that go into each animal we save. The adoption fee is a donation to the mission and goes far beyond getting a fully vetted pet.
The rescue’s hard costs alone for a healthy dog to go through our program typically range between $412 to $859, which includes boarding, food, medications, vaccines, and spay/neuter. For heartworm-positive dogs, hard costs are upwards of $1,120. Additionally, dogs requiring extended boarding, extra training, or extra medical care—such as dental work, vision care, or orthopedic care—can lead to expenses running into the thousands. Also, included in the fee are costs to cover transport up to the Pacific Northwest or East Coast. While adoption fees help cover part of these expenses, we want to emphasize that Three Little Pitties Rescue is not government funded.

Did you know that the Greater Houston area faces some of the highest stray and overpopulation rates in the nation? We are a non profit charity. Our goal is simple— to reduce the homeless pet population through community outreach, free spay and neuter services, and by rescuing animals from the streets or overcrowded shelters where euthanasia due to lack of space is often the only option. The dog you've found online is not only lucky to be in our program, but also incredibly fortunate to have caught your eye. Thank you for considering adoption and for joining us in our mission!
Follow our rescue journey and connect with us on our website and social media platforms. Together, we can make a difference, one adoption at a time.
