Story
**Fostered in Bellevue, WA and ready for meet and greets!**
If you put happy, silly, and enthusiastic into a fun size package- you get Sam Moot. He is a bundle of friendly energy and his playful nature basically scares away any traces of a bad day.
He’s a friendly guy who loves people and is eager to please. His love for cuddles and joy for everything life has to offer are going to make him such a fantastic companion! Take a peak at him here then come back to read more about him. https://youtu.be/mSgBrSG5NWU
Sam is estimated to be 1 year old and weighs 27lbs. , and is on the larger side of the small dog spectrum. With any rescue breed and age are not details we can offer with a guarantee but we believe Sam is a bit of a puggle, maybe some pug maybe some beagle. Sam has great basic leash skills and is walk ready. He’s generally good on leash, he stays calm and is easy to handle.
It is important to understand that Sam is the friendly-type, he wants to greet the world and knows no stranger. Whether he goes to them or they come to him, if you head out of the house together leave a few extra minutes for the greetings and comments about you super cute dog.
Sam is great with kids but his eagerness to play would be a bit too much for littles.
When we introduced Sam to other dogs we learned quickly- this boy loves to play! He would love a home with a playmate that has a similar zest for bouncy play, his favorite playmate was a female dog that was just slightly bigger than him but just as rough and tumble. He is friendly, greeted new dogs well on and off leash, and when he isn’t running and playing he is happy to just hang out and check in with people for a little love and maybe a treat.
Sam’s ideal home is flexible, he absolutely could be an apartment boy thanks to his friendliness, size, and overall quiet nature. If you have a house that is awesome too, more space for zoomies! An ideal dog pairing would be an energetic playful pup. If you are looking to be an one-dog house, this boy s a great candidate! People fill up his love tank and he has the love of at least two dogs to share so you won’t ever go love-starved. As far as cats go, Sam could easily have a feline-friend with just basic guidance. He’s not shy about following a cat around, even after a gentle swat, so a home with a dog-savvy cat that can handle his curiosity would be best.
Sam is a quick learner with lots of love to give, and with a bit of polishing he is sure to shine as a loyal, fun-loving family member. If you think Sam might be the perfect fit for you, don’t hesitate to reach out and meet this affectionate little guy!

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!

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.
It doesn’t stop there! Our adopters also receive these SPECIAL PERKS:

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.
