Black and white, and wants to sleep in your bed at night… meet Gracie! Gracie is an absolute doll of a dog, sweet and gracious with her doggy friends, warm and welcoming with us humans, and a total ham for affection.
We think that Gracie may be an APBT, Staffie mix, but she is a rescue, so these are just are best guesses. She’s estimated to be around 2 years old, and currently weighs in around 45 pounds.

Gracie is a social butterfly with people, she is immediately ready for love and affection the moment she meets a new friend. She’s a super affectionate lap dog, ready to love you. We haven’t seen Gracie with kids just yet, but knowing her personality we believe she would make an amazing family dog. She loves treats, and takes them so gently! She’s learning her leash skills, and doing great, with a little more polishing she’ll be a perfect walking companion.
Gracie is currently fostered in a home with her loving foster mom, small dogs, medium dogs, and big dogs. She does great with everyone! She’s stable with other dogs, though she can be a bit eager to play. She’s exceptionally tolerant of other dogs’ antics, and always so sweet with other dogs. Her foster mom takes her on little play dates with other foster dogs in the area, and Gracie loves the extra play time that entails. Gracie’s playstyle with other dogs is bouncy and joyful, almost puppyish. She has the cutest little bunny hops that make her ears flop in the breeze. We think Gracie would do best in a home with a low to medium energy dog, to save her from playing all day every day.
Lunch dates at patio cafes, late nights watching live music, daytime park hangs- Gracie is ready, willing and available. She’s a total adventure dog! She loves the car, though her short legs will sometimes require a boost. She’s so friendly with everyone that bringing her out and about is a breeze. She’s just happy to hang out. Her foster mom takes her to restaurants and parks with regularity!
In her foster home, Gracie loves to share the bed. She would love a home where all night snuggle sessions are a possibility! If it’s not your thing, that’s okay too- Gracie’s foster mom says she’s perfect in her kennel. Gracie is also a huge fan of the pool, and loves to get in the hot tub. She’s a little spoiled, and accustomed to being the princess of the house.
Gracie coukd thrive as a solo-dog, or as a member of your pack. We think she could make a great family dog. With proper exercise, she could be a great candidate for apartment living, but she would absolutely love a home with a yard too. She would love to be your little go-anywhere dog, and she definitely has the right temperament for it!
With any questions, please reach out to her adoption coordinator, whose email is linked below. We are willing to test Gracie with anything you need us to in order to ensure she’s the perfect match for you! We can make most anything happen! Just let us know.

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.
