Story
Apply at www.streetsavvydogrescue.org. URGENT SITUATION! Star, a dog adopted from Street Savvy Dog Rescue at least 6 yrs ago has turned up AGAIN Roaming the streets last seen with a homeless person. Back in July, we were having trouble getting hold of her owner and finally made the connection and returned her to him. Now we are experiencing a repeat of not being able to get an answer back from him despite repeated calls and texts. Sniff Daycare @sniffdoghotel kindly took her in overnight last night but we had to get her into our foster program and she is not doing well with other dogs in a not very large home with too little enough space to keep her separated properly from the resident three dogs and two cats! IMMEDIATE TEMP FOSTER HOME NEEDED! Star is great with people! TEXT 971-303-9415 THANK YOU COMMUNITY MEMBERS! Streetsavvydogrescue.org

Hey there, pals! The name's Calhoun, and let me tell ya, I'm the life of the party! 🎉 I may be a two- to three-year-old, 70-pound Shepherd, but don't let my size fool ya – I'm a big bundle of joy just waiting to find my forever home! 🐾 I've been hanging out in my foster home for a few months now, and let me tell ya, I've got the seal of approval from my foster dad! He's always raving about how sweet and loving I am, and let's not forget my impressive people skills – I can get along with any pup I meet! 🐶 I've got this knack for diffusing any tense situations with my goofy antics – whether it's rolling around, jumping over things, or wiggling my way into someone's space, I'm all about spreading those good vibes and showing everyone that life's meant to be enjoyed! 😄 Check out my personality in action: https://youtu.be/Nl18hewfB5U Sure, I may look a bit awkward sometimes with my long legs and silly behavior, but trust me, I'm as athletic as they come! I love zooming around and jumping for joy – it's like I've got springs in my paws! 🐾 And let me tell ya, my foster dad gets a kick out of watching me run – my joy is just contagious! 🏃‍♂️ I went and visited my friends home with 6 dogs and 2 teens and they said I did fantastic even with 13 pound dogs! I received an A+ But hey, I'm not just a goofball – I've got some serious house manners too! I'm crate-trained, walk like a champ on leash, and I'm all about those car rides. Plus, I adore kiddos – they're like my favorite playmates! 👶 I'm on the lookout for a forever home where I can be a part of the family and go on all sorts of adventures together. Once we bond, I'll be your trusty sidekick – whether we're exploring the great outdoors or just cuddling up on the couch. And hey, I've got great recall, so you can bet I'll stick close by your side! 🌟 So, if you think I might be the perfect fit for your crew, don't hesitate to reach out to my adoption coordinator.

Story
If you love a classic German Shepherd, want to be adored, and have a dog that you are matchmaking a buddy for... you are right where you should be. If you have an idea of what type of dog a German Shepherd is, then you will know Oobie. Take all that classic German Shepherd, sprinkle a bunch of charm on it and give it a real good looking face and you have Oobie. In rescue we avoid saying a dog is a purebred anything, because who knows, but I would bet good money on Oobie being all 100% German Shepherd. This boy comes preloaded with what I like to call the Deluxe Package which includes auto-sit on top of sit on command, down on command, he is fully house trained, is a solid dogs dog and is a gentleman to cats. As you would expect with a German Shepherd, he is loyal, protective, and loves real big! But this isn’t your “watch-dog,” sure he will make you feel protected but he also has the important role of fluff-exterminator in fluffy toys, and trying to out-race trucks on the other side of the fence. He knows one day he will win the fight against all the fluff and someday the truck will be too slow. Until then he carries on! Oobie has been fortunate to be in a foster home where he quickly fit right in. He easily integrated into a pack of 8 dogs, found his favorite spot where he sleeps all night with no accidents or disturbances, and showed the resident cats, yes multiple, that he may be big but he is big-friend. The only thing he isn’t too sure about is the lawn mower and edger, but he has agreed to only bark from a distance a couple times then go back to loving and lounging. A dream home for Oobie would include room to roam, he loves the freedom and feels obviously proud of his role as a dog with a home and people to keep company and care for. His current foster is a retired couple and we can all see how much Oobie glows living the home life with someone everyday. A homebody, with a bit of land they want kept an eye on, while being adored deeply by a dog is our idea of Oobie’s ideal match. If you happen to be familiar with German Shepherds and they way they “work,” that would be a double-cherry on top of perfection! Other dogs are not needed but if you have them Oobie will be an easy companion. A little insight into Oobie’s role at the rescue before he was with his foster- Oobie was what we call an Assessment dog. This is basically a gold star in the 3LP world, a dog that is so stable and consistent he is used to gauge an in-coming dogs personality towards other dogs. Inviting if they were friendly, neutral if they were unsure, aloof and avoidant if the dog shows signs of being aggressive. Oobie has helped save hundreds of dogs by being such a stable, non-conflict dog. He carved out a huge space in the heart of everyone at the rescue and if we start awarding dogs with our version of a Medal of Honor, we have discussed naming it an Oobie Service award. If you are looking for an amazing dog to add to your pack and/or a loyal and adoring companion to have by your side- Oobie is perfection! If there are any details we didn’t cover or you have questions about the adoption process, let us know! Oobie is available for Greater Houston meet & greets! We are willing to test Oobie with anything you need us to in order to ensure he is the perfect match for you!

🐾 Hello!! 🐾 I'm Gordo "Puppy" Padilla, a beautiful 2-year-old Brindle Shepherd-Pit mix with a heart full of love. I am a rescue, so exact age and breed cannot be guaranteed! I'm gentle and sweet, and every day I'm getting more and more confident. I'm new to leash training, but I'm a very smart boy eager to learn and making great progress with crate training in my foster home. I get along well with other dogs and would love a sibling to play with 🌟 I’m not always my best self with cats. I really like kids but because of my size I would do best playing with older children (5+) and would make a great family dog! When we’re in the house together, I love snuggles and scritches! I’m a super affectionate guy, and physical touch is my love language. My foster mom has house trained me, and I don’t have any accidents in her house! One of my absolute favourite activities is playing with my ball—I'm a fetch superstar! I simply love the water, whether it's swimming, running through sprinklers, or splashing in puddles—these are my absolute favourites. I'd be over the moon to have a fenced yard of my own to play in. I'm very smart and eager to learn, making me a great candidate for daily routines and training. I love treats, and my foster mom even gives me ice cream sometimes! I'd also love to go to the beach with you, learn to paddleboard, or embark on any adventure together! I can't wait to meet you and become the playful, loving addition to your family! 🐾 If you're looking for a loyal and loving companion who enjoys fetch and water play, Gordo is the perfect match. We are willing to test this dog with anything you need us to in order to ensure she’s the perfect match for you! We can make anything happen! Just let us know.

Bean is an energetic and loving dog to her humans, unfortunately she hasn’t been able to get along with the other dogs in the household and outside of it. Countless hours and funds have gone into training and unfortunately I just don’t have the means to fund the process any longer. Bean has gotten along with our cats under supervision but they aren’t alone for more than a few minutes. She is well behaved in the home and knows quite a few commands, however I consider her a teenager who likes to ignore us on occasion lol. Bean needs a loving home with no other dogs. She loves fetch, cuddles, and anything with a squeaker.

Story
Jedrek is an affectionate boy who loves to go for walks and explore the world with you! He's always eager to head out on a leash and enjoys discovering new sights and smells. While he's still learning to trust new people, he warms up quickly with a little patience and kindness. Jedrek enjoys gentle pets and will happily take treats from your hand. He's learning to be more comfortable with touch and is making great progress. This curious and playful boy loves investigating his surroundings, sniffing around, and playing with toys. A few things to keep in mind: Jedrek can be a little startled by loud or unexpected noises, and he's still getting used to having a leash put over his head. He may take a little time to warm up to new people, but with some patience and love, he'll be your best friend in no time. Because he's a German Shepherd, Jedrek will thrive with an active lifestyle that includes daily exercise and mental stimulation. Previous experience with this intelligent and loyal breed would be a bonus, as they often require a confident owner who can provide consistent training and guidance through positive reinforcement. If you're looking for a loving companion who's ready for adventure and think you can provide the active life Jedrek needs, he might be the perfect dog for you! 🐾💙 Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: Tan Weight: 82.5 Age: 2yrs 0mths 3wks

Zara is a sweet girl looking for a patient and understanding home. She can be a bit hesitant and unsure in new situations and new people, but with a little time and encouragement, she blossoms into a loving companion. Once she has made your acquaintance, Zara loves to be petted and will happily lean into you for affection. She's also quite playful and enjoys exploring on her walks. Zara is very treat-motivated and eager to please, which will make training a rewarding experience. 🥕 An active lifestyle would be perfect for her, as she loves to go for walks and explore. However, she can also be a bit sensitive to noise and commotion, so a calmer home and low traffic environment would be ideal. 🐾 Despite these small challenges, Zara is a wonderful dog who is waiting for the right family to come along. If you're looking for a loyal and affectionate companion who will bring joy to your life, consider opening your heart and home to Zara. 🌟 Primary Color: Black Weight: 59.125 Age: 2yrs 1mths 0wks

Story
The list goes on and on about all the amazing qualities Miss Sable brings to the table. I don’t think there is enough writing space to list it all out but we’ll try. First things first! You have to know how much Sable loves people and affection! Sable is a people-lover through and through, always seeking attention and affection from those around her. Watch her video and you’ll see exactly what we are talking about!! https://youtu.be/R-chtCDuXtw?si=Z2MDXaHwD0FF21fK Did you see what we mean?! Sable is a people’s dog and potentially even a family dog. She is so patient and gentle with kids. In her eyes, any affection is good affection. She was with kids as young as 4 years old to 14 years old and was a gentle queen letting them hug on her, brush her, dress her up, etc. I’m sure she would have let them paint her nails too if it led to that. So if that video didn’t seal the deal, let me tell you a little bit more about Sable and why you should adopt her. You already know she’s great with kids and is so gentle with them but she is also incredibly smart and savvy! She is the type of dog that you could teach any trick and she would get the gold star buzzer from the America’s Got Talent judges. She’s that smart!! So if you love training and teaching your new dog some cool tricks, you need to adopt Sable. It would also be in her best interest for her adopter to have a general knowledge and understanding about her suspected breed. We believe Sable is a Belgian Malinois mix approximately 5 years old and currently weighs 55lbs and is full grown. She is a rescue dog and with any rescue, it’s always a mystery and we cannot guarantee breed or age. Sable is potty and crate trained and can go at least 14 hours overnight without any accidents nor do you hear a peep out of her! She truly is a lady. Sable loves to explore and she’s the best companion to take on adventures and to take for walks. She is gentle on a leash, only pulling every so often when she gets excited about something but responds so beautifully to corrections. You’ll catch her checking in with you from time to time on her walks as well. Sable is also a lady when she passes by other dogs when she is out and about. A quick hello and she’s off exploring the next sniff spot. She has a perfectly balanced energy where she can join you for hikes, adventures, long walk or even a run. Then after will be the most relaxed girly at home snuggling on the couch with you watching tv or laying by your feet chewing on a toy. She’s got the whole package! She even loves to go socialize at events! So if you’re a person that wants to be able to take your pup to the coffee shop, pickle ball, or even a sports grill/restaurant to watch Sunday football or meet with some friends. She is the perfect date. Sable is dog friendly and does great when she is around other mellow dogs that she meets. She has been in many play groups but isn’t too interested in playing with other dogs. She’d much rather be loving on her person or learning a new trick. Which is why we believe she would be best as your only furry companion in the home including cats. Sable would love a home that has a backyard where she can romp around when she pleases, soak up the sun on a relaxing day, and to hangout with her new family. We are willing to test Miss Sable with anything you need us to in order to ensure she is the perfect match for you! We can make anything happen! Just let us know. If you're ready to welcome an outgoing and loving companion into your life, Sable is eager to meet you and show you just how special she is Application link https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/animal/62cc8e128b02916730334440/664c1374b87f4b0cd7071a53 Please email jacquelynn@threelittlepittiesrescue.org with any questions! Available for adoption in NV, MT, CO,UT, ID, OR, WA, Canada, and now the East Coast!

You will get to follow along on their journey through a private FB Event page, where you will see photos, have the opportunity to connect with other adopters, and receive updates and constant communication along the way. One of our Adoption Coordinators can help to find the closest transport pick up location to you! The adoption fee is $400 and includes all vetting: 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! 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 5 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. Follow our rescue journey through the links below! https://www.threelittlepittiesrescue.org/ https://www.facebook.com/threelittlepittiesrescue https://www.instagram.com/threelittlepittiesrescue *Due to the rising cost of fuel and transportation expenses, there will be an additional $74 surcharge for transport. DISCLAIMER- Breed type is determined based on general appearance and behavioral characteristics, and cannot be guaranteed unless DNA test results or AKC registration were provided at intake.

Story
Gigi is a beautiful 3-year-old Belgian Malinois with a heart full of love and energy. She’s a sweet lady who thrives on companionship and is happiest when she’s by your side. Whether it's cuddling on the couch or sleeping in bed at night, Gigi is your ultimate attached-at-the-hip friend. Devastatingly, Gigi’s owner unexpectedly passed away Gigi is great with other high-energy dogs, though she can be a bit protective of her food and treats. She might growl a little, but she’s never shown aggression towards other dogs. Jay took her to work every day, and she loved being able to be with him all the time. Gigi has been wonderful with kids as young as 3yo. Gigi is crate-trained, incredibly smart, and eager to please. We do however recommend a home with no cats.
