Story
Hey Pittie people… what do you love about pitties? Is it their couch potato tendencies, their love for pets and kisses, their obedience and loyalty? If it’s all of the above, Muttley Crew is the pup for you!
We think Muttley is a Pittie, Border Collie mix but she is a rescue so these are simply our best guesses. She’s estimated to be just one year old, and weighs in at a lightweight and compact 40 pounds.
Fall in love with Muttley here: https://youtu.be/EK3K0blDjJc?feature=shared
Muttley is super super dog friendly! Here at the rescue she met a shy super mutt named Stella. Muttley had all of the patience in the world for Stella’s shy demeanor, and was sooo respectful of her. They shared space well and even shared some cheese! There was cheese to be had with Dunkin as well, a confident and stable Shepherd boy. They were a little more playful with each other, sharing kisses and doing little training games with us. Sweet Muttley really comes out of her shell in her foster home though, where she runs and plays with her foster siblings. They share toys really well and like to chase tennis balls together.
One of the sweetest things about Muttley is how much she loves affection. She adores her people and loves a good couch snuggle. She’ll do this adorable little army crawl across the couch to rest her head on your lap, and your heart will melt entirely. She loves to be pet on her head, behind her ears, and on her chest. She loves affection, but doesn’t paw or whine for it- she’s so polite.
Muttley is also just a well-rounded well-behaved lady. She knows “sit” on command, takes treats really gently and has good leash manners. Here at the rescue we even tested her leash manners when passing another dog on the street and she was so respectful and minded her business. She would be an easy dog to have in an urban area because of this.
Muttley is such a gorgeous and lovable girl, and she’s ready for her forever home. We think she would do best in a home with no kitties. She could thrive in an apartment or a house, she’s simple like that! While we haven’t seen her with kids just yet, we think she has the makings of a great family dog for a home with kids over ten. We are willing to test Muttley with anything you need us to in order to ensure she is the perfect match for you! We can make most anything happen! Just let us know.

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.
