Story
If you’ve been waiting for the perfect mix of heartthrob charm and goofy best friend energy, allow us to introduce John Travolta! Yes, that’s really his name, and yes, he lives up to it! With striking husky features, a friendly personality, and an irresistible love of cuddles, John is the kind of pup who will keep you smiling from sunrise to movie-night snuggles on the couch.
We believe John is a husky mix of some sort around 5 months old and weighs approximately 30 pounds. He has massive paws and is definitely going to be a decent sized boy when full grown. He has the softest fur with beautiful notes of chocolate throughout his coat. Due to him being a rescue, age and breed are our best guesses and cannot be guaranteed.

Still just a youngster, John is already impressing everyone with how quickly he learns! He’s naturally confident and walks beautifully on leash for his age, barely needing corrections. When meeting new people, he greets them like they have been friends forever, wagging his tail and leaning right into them for affection! His signature move is gently crawling into your lap if you crouch down. He was incredibly tolerant and calm during his visit with us, showing off his sweet, gentle spirit with every new interaction!
John lives with other dogs in his foster home and enjoys the company. He can be playful, especially with adult dogs who match his vibe. While he can hang with high-energy pups, he prefers a friend who won’t pester him non-stop. A respectful medium energy playmate who can chase and wrestle a little, then relax and lounge with him afterward is his cup of tea. He’s a great communicator and knows how to give polite corrections when needed. He’s also shown promise around cats! When he met our house cat Biggie, he gave him kisses and showed interest in play! But being a pup, he’d do best with a dog in the home to balance his energy if there are cats around too.
This handsome boy has been a hit during outings to the park, where he interacts beautifully with children and strangers alike. While he doesn’t currently live with kids, his temperament suggests he could do well with them, and we’re happy to test him with any age group if you’d like to know more!
Because of his breed and puppy enthusiasm, John would thrive in a home with a yard and people who are active enough to help him grow into the amazing adult dog he’s meant to be! He’s vocal in a charming husky way, especially when he’s excited, and would shine in a household that enjoys engaging with their dog and doesn’t mind a little friendly chatter.
From the confident way he trots into a room to the soft way he settles into your lap for snuggles, John Travolta is more than just a cute face! He’s a pup with star power, ready to shine in the heart of a loving home!

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.
