Story
Meet Weston Stetson – The Couch Cowboy with a Heart of Gold! Ready to wrangle your heart, Weston Stetson is a mellow little Shih Tzu with a big personality wrapped in a tiny, fluffy package. He’s one of the calmest, sweetest boys you’ll ever meet—and his biggest dream? Quiet, cozy moments on the couch with his favorite human. Weston walks beautifully on leash and enjoys joining you for relaxed strolls, but he’s just as happy soaking up the sunshine in a yard of his own. He’s a sunbather, a gentle soul, and a huge fan of ear scratches and slow afternoons. This easy-going guy gets along well with other calm dogs but would also be perfectly content as your one and only. Whether you live in a house or apartment, Weston will fit right in. He’s the ideal companion for a singleton or a home with older adults looking for a relaxed, loving presence. Weston Stetson is ready to ride off into the sunset—with you by his side.

Email Stephanie@threelittlepittiesrescue.org We facilitate adoptions across the US through our own internal transport to ensure the quality of care. 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!    The adoption fee is $1,000 and includes all vetting (DAPP with booster, Bordetella, Rabies vaccine, multiple broad spectrum deworming treatments, spay/neuter, flea prevention, a 12 month heartworm preventative injectable, heartworm test and treatment if needed, a microchip with free lifetime registration, a high quality nylon Martingale collar, a health certificate deeming the pup healthy for travel, cost of transport*, and priceless years of love and loyal companionship!    We have over 15,000 successful adoptions so far and have excellent Google Reviews: 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 (excluding transport) 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 $1,368. 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 adoption fee are costs to cover transport up to the Pacific Northwest or East Coast. Transport is a significant additional expense to the rescue.  While adoption fees help cover part of these expenses, we want to emphasize that the rescue does not receive government funding and must fundraise to offset the remaining expense balance which ranges $100-1,000++ per animal on these direct costs.   It doesn’t stop there! Our adopters also receive these SPECIAL PERKS:   Extensive behavioral testing and information from trainers on our staff to ensure the perfect fit for your family  Discounts on Embark DNA test kit- $30 off of Breed ID test & $50 off of Breed ID plus Health test 30 day trial of pet insurance with Trupanion A free private online dog training session with GoodPup, plus low pricing for future sessions  70% off of your first order of Fetch, a delicious PNW based fresh dog meatballs subscription Coupons for a fun visit to Petco 20% off of Dr. Cuddles pet first aid and hygiene solutions Discounted heartworm, flea prevention, and monthly dewormer  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!   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.   https://www.threelittlepittiesrescue.org/ https:// www.facebook.com/threelittlepittiesrescue https://www.instagram.com/threelittlepittiesrescue   Ready to welcome a new furry friend into your life? APPLY TODAY and become a hero for pets in need!   *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 were provided at intake.   Texas local adoption! All adoptions within Texas must be picked up from Friendswood, Tx.

Story
WE ARE A TX BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN TX AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED UPON ADOPTION. Please fill out an adoption application found at haydudeequine.org Luffy - You are the bridge between what was and what will be, my pathway to a new life! Hey hey all you fabulous people out there. My name is Luffy and I'm here looking to adopt me a family, a home...one I can say will be all mine! And since you're reading this, I'm hoping that you'll consider making ME a part of yours!!!! I is a real sweetheart, adorable and playful year-old pup coming in at about 16lbs that is an on the go and energetic. I is sure to win over your heart with my charming ways and playful personality. I is ready to start this next chapter in life with lots of puppy kisses, tail wags and playtime with my new family!! I has a lot of energy and playfulness that makes me the perfect companion for lots of adventures, everything from the mundane daily to your weekend exciting. I do great with the other foster pups here but would do just fine getting ALL the attention as your one and only. I would probably do best in an adult only home or with older kiddos (10+), as sometimes I can play kinda rough. I have not yet had the pleasure of meeting any of those creatures y'all call a cat. I do great with people and my dream is an active family that would love to have a tag-a-long to share in all the joys of hanging your head out the car window, going on sniffaries or sleeping on the ground on camping trips. I am up to trying them all...and having a blast doing them with you! I am crate trained but still working on the house training so I will need continued encouragement. I so love sleeping in bed, of course...snuggled up to you but I sometimes need to go out to potty thru the night. I seem to have a larger dome head and although it hasn't been confirmed, the vets seem to think I could possibly have hydrocephalus which is a condition where an abnormal accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) inside the skull causes the brain to swell and increase pressure. There are some treatment options that vary depending on the cause and severity of hydrocephalus, but may include medication to reduce fluid production, surgical shunting to drain the excess fluid, or in severe cases, palliative care. Some breeds like the chihuahua naturally have a dome shaped head and don't always indicate a problem. This doesn't seem to affect my sweet personality and I'm just a happy happy boy that is ready to live life to the fullest! There just isn't anything like the pure pleasure I feel when I catch a glimpse of you from across the yard, if I happen to get that far away! You can see it on my lil face and in my body, I am so darn happy to see you even if it was just 2 seconds ago! I am definitely a shadow pup, even when the sun is hiding behind clouds, sticking close and following you...everywhere!! I am sooooo ready to unleash all this awesomeness on a family and be that lil heartbeat at your feet or maybe preferably on your lap, so if you think I'd be a pawsome fit for you and your lifestyle, please stop scrolling and fill out my adoption application! It can be found at haydudeequine.org

Story
We have a transport where we will be personally taking our dogs home leaving on 5/17/25 to NorCal and OR. Surrounding states will be added to our route if needed ☺️ We would love to add Marvin to our trip for the right home 💕 Meet our handsome boy Marvin 💙 He is a purebred shih tzu. He weighs 13.6 lbs. Yes, he is full grown and at a healthy weight. He turned 2 years of age on 4/21/25. He is neutered, microchipped, current on all of his yearly vaccines, and had an overall wonderful exam with our vet who has cleared him to find a home all his own ❤️ He is house trained, and will go outside to use the restroom when he needs to throughout the day every 3 hours or so. He is very good about communicating with us when he doesn't need to go out and will just go back to lay in his bed. He is crate trained, and currently sleeps in his crate at night or to nap in during the day. He is very well behaved in the home and enjoys hanging out with his humans any chance he gets so you'll find him lounging near by if he isn't at your feet. He is leash trained, and LOVES his walks. He really enjoys strolling around the neighborhood, and was used to nightly walks with his prior owner which he would patiently sit at the door waiting for every evening. If you love your walks, he would happily join you on every single one of them ❤️ He is amazing with dogs and cats alike. He grew up with two cats in his last home, and loved them very much so if you have cats he would make a great addition to their lives. If you have another sweet dog, he would happily join them in life as well. If he only had YOU as he would be equally content as his happy place stems from his human at the end of the day, and he would have no problem being the prince in his new home ❤️ He is NOT a barker whatsoever, but he does communicate with you very well. He likes to talk to you when he wants something whether it's to go outside or to turn off the lights because he is ready for bed 😂 He is so smart and knows exactly how to get his voice heard, especially because of how sweet and charming he is!!! Plus he gives the greatest snuggles in return 🥰 He LOVES road trips, and it doesn't matter the distance as he has traveled vacationing with his prior owner so he is very accustomed to being on the road so if yould like a sweet guy by your side enjoying time outside of your home he will gladly take that spot in your life ❤️ He loves the groomer, and does very well with his spa days enjoying being pampered, and brushed. He always looks forward to his snuggles when coming back home and being told how handsome he is. He will soak up every single ounce of love he gets so he makes sure to let you know just how appreciative he is by giving you kisses 💕 His prior owner had to move back home to take care of her parents and knew life would change drastically for her leaving her with little to no time to give Marvin the life he was accustomed to. She didn't want to say goodbye, but knew it was best for her sweet boy to be in a home where he would continue getting the love and attention he was used to so she reached out to us to take him in 💙 His adoption fee is on our website at the bottom of his adoption listing at https://www.breadoflifek9refuge.org/post/marvin It covers his neuter, vaccines, microchip/registration, and exam with our vet (which went perfect) It also covers the care involved in the months he has been with us, his grooming costs, and his training we have personally done with him.

Story
Hi there, I’m Daisy! I’m a 15-year-old Shih Tzu, a petite little lady at just 10 pounds. I’ve spent my whole life with my sister, Coco, and we are a bonded pair, so we need to find a home together. We recently lost our dad, who loved us very much, and now we’re looking for a new family to love. I’m a super friendly girl who enjoys meeting new people, and I love being around my humans. I’m used to having someone home with me most of the day, and at night, I love snuggling up on the bed. I’m potty-trained to use pee pads if needed, but I can also go outside if you take me out regularly. I do need Optixcare eye drops in my one eye every day, but I’m a good girl about it! It’s just a small part of my routine. I am also on renal food. If you’re looking for two sweet, loving companions who will fill your home with cuddles and warmth, Coco and I would love to meet you!

Meet Doge—a gentle, shy Maltese with a heart full of love and loyalty. While he may take a little time to warm up, once he trusts you, he becomes the sweetest and most devoted sidekick you could ever ask for. He finds comfort in being close to his person and offers a quiet kind of companionship that’s both heartwarming and steady. Doge currently lives with other dogs and gets along well with them, making him a great fit for a multi-dog home. He’s even chicken-friendly, showing just how gentle and adaptable he is. Doge would make a wonderful companion for a single person, an older adult, or anyone looking for a calm, loyal friend to share life with. He doesn’t need a busy environment—just a loving one. Whether you live in a house or an apartment, Doge is the perfect roommate. He’s quiet, well-mannered, and content to simply be near the people he trusts. If you’re looking for a faithful companion to share your days, offer quiet affection, and be your little shadow, Doge is ready to be your forever friend.

Three Little Pitties Rescue is a nonprofit dog and cat rescue that partners with the community to make a difference.

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.

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!

Story
We have a transport where we will be personally taking our dogs home leaving on 5/17/25 to NorCal and OR. Surrounding states will be added to our route if needed ☺️ We would love to add Milo to our trip for the right home 💕 Meet our sweet boy Milo! He is a purebred shih tzu. He weighs 11 lbs. Yes, he is full grown and at a healthy weight. He turns 1 year of age on 5/20/25. He is neutered, microchipped, current on all of his yearly vaccines, and had an overall wonderful exam with our vet who has cleared him to find a home all his own ❤️ He is house trained; and does very well going outside to use the restroom throughout the day when needed. He is goes out every 3-4 hours and never has an accident inbetween. He is crate trained and currently sleeps in his crate at night or to nap in during the day. He really loves his crate and asks us to feed him in there too 😂 so we make sure his food bowl is where he prefers it to be as making his little heart happy isn't a hard task at all! He is still learning his confidence on a leash, but in time it'll grow as he has a tremendous love for the world and all that's in it so he will need a bit of confidence from his new human to help lead the way until he can confidently walk aside you 😊 He is wonderful with dogs and cats alike. He is beautifully natured, and loves to play. If you have another sweet animal in your home he will happily join them in life. If not, that's okay too as he loves being with you and soaking up all the extra attention of being your only love so either way his heart will be full 😊 He is NOT a barker, but will communicate with you at times when he needs something. He isn't much of an alert barker either as he tends to put his trust in you that everything he hears isn't meant to alarm, or harm him. He is the sweetest and happiest little guy!!! He is just happy being a part of each and every day especially when he gets to hang aside his human. He isn't high energy at all and will lounge around waiting and observing your day. Sometimes he will get up and follow you around just out of curiosity to see what you are doing but will resort back to his bed, or to his favorite toy entertaining himself. He loves hanging poolside, and will just soak up the suns rays on a nice warm day. When he is ready to come inside he will sit by the door, and if you take too long to let him in you may catch him catching a snooze right by the door 🙃 He is amazing on road trips around town, and loves to drive around running errands with you when allowed to. He is a total charmer, and always knows how to be asked to come along. He is an ultimate snuggler too and loves being held, or in your lap anytime of the day. He also loves watching tv but will typically be the first to fall asleep 😂 He is wonderful at the groomers, and has never complained about getting a good spa day because he knows all attention will be on him ❤️ His adoption fee is on our website at the bottom of his adoption listing at https://www.breadoflifek9refuge.org/post/benji It covers his neuter, vaccines, microchip/registration, and exam with our vet (which went perfect) It also covers the care involved in the months he has been with us, his grooming costs, and his training we have personally done with him.
