Story
This adorable boy is named Charlie. Charlie has so much to brag about, he’s easy on leash, great in the car, a canine-socialite that loves his doggy-friends, great with kids, and so friendly. He’s so fun and silly, a really great companion dog. He knows basic commands, he’s good in his crate, playful and snuggly, and super gentle!
We believe that Charlie is a Pittie mix, maybe AmStaff and Boston Terrier, around 11 months old. He weighs in around 50 lbs right now, the perfect size for snuggles! Charlie is a rescue, so his exact age and breed are a bit of a mystery and cannot be guaranteed.

Charlie has GREAT manners, he’s easy on leash, good in the car, and great in the house! No indoor accidents, no marking, no counter surfing, and not too jumpy or mouthy! This boy is solid, and ready for his forever home!
Charlie takes treats gently, and he’s very treat-motivated. He knows a handful of basic commands already, and he eagerly shows them off for snacks! He loves toys too, especially Nylabones! He’s good about sharing them too. Charlie is currently fostered in a home with a foster puppy, who he gets along well with and plays with often. They share beds, toys and treats without issue. Charlie’s foster dad reports that he’s also a champ at bath time, super patient and gentle.
Charlie is great with other dogs, here at the rescue he played with some other dogs of his size and age. Heston did great with them! He politely greeted them, and he wasn’t too pushy with his play. He’s a socialite and his social skills are amazing! He’ll make a wonderful friend for your pup! Charlie did well meeting small scruff dogs as well, we’re proud to call him small-dog friendly.
Here at the rescue, Charlie was cat-tested by our behavior team. Unfortunately Charlie was a little too interested in the kitty, so we do recommend him for a cat-free home. Otherwise, Charlie could likely do well in just about any animal lover’s home. Charlie was also kid-tested here at the rescue, and he did wonderfully meeting a three year old boy. We are recommending Charlie for a home with older, dog-savvy kiddos, he will make a great family dog!
Charlie is such a sweet, loyal and fun dog. He’s easy-peasy, he just needs a little affection, a little adventure, and a couple treats daily. We are willing to test Charlie with anything you need us to in order to ensure he’s the perfect match for you! We can make anything happen! Just let us know.

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)

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.
