Australian Shepherd puppies and dogs in Damascus, Oregon

I’m crate-trained, but honestly, I’d love to snuggle at your feet in bed! I love being active, and I need someone who can keep up. I love to play with stuffed squeaky toys, and tug-of-war, and I LOVE balls that squeak! I’ve dealt with loss in my short life (not because I’m a bad dog; human lives can be sad and complicated!), so I’m longing for someone in it for the long haul. I’m extremely SMART! I’m yearning to learn more tricks; I know how to sit, stay, and lay, and I love playing fetch and Find It! I need some additional training on leash reactivity and a little more help to firm up my recall, but I know a great trainer who knows me and would love to know you! When I see an attractive force (ex, a squirrel) I get so excited that I start to bark, and I need further help with leave commands. I suggest I suggest high-value treats to aid in training. I get along with other dogs, but I’m best being the only pet in the house. I’m protective over food, toys, and affection!

Miley Cyrus lived as a mother dog who was used for breeding. She was roaming the streets when she asked the right people for help. Eager to please, Miley has completed dog training at the head of her class. As a result of her past experiences, she is mistrusting of men and loud noises. She is not aggressive, but rather simply prefers to be alone. If you are kind and gentle, and have the patience to earn her trust, Miley Cyrus might be your girl.

This cutie is Mikey Mayo. He is currently 4 pounds, 2 months old, and we think they may be an Australian Shepherd mix, but with rescue it’s a guess! What matters most is that they are adorable and are one the MOST desperate in the entire US based on statistics for where this puppy is from. Shelters in this area are having to euthanize puppies. So, this puppy needs you! If you choose a puppy from this rescue, it saves his/her life as well as the life of another in its place. Fall in love here: https://youtu.be/V22raTjRGrE?feature=shared Mikey Mayo is playful, sweet, curious, and cuddly. He loves to play with his siblings and take lots of naps. No toy is too big for this little man. Eat, sleep, play, repeat- such is puppy life! Mikey is still young so they will need a family that can commit to training, socialization and all the dedication puppyhood requires. His new family will need to continue with potty and crate training and daily exercise. We require a commitment from adoptive families to crate train their new puppy. When old enough, they will be perfect to go on walks and hikes or show off around your neighborhood. You will be guaranteed to get lots of kisses in return from your new best friend!

This is the feedback we tend to get, although we cannot guarantee perfect health. *To fully vet a dog in the PNW or the NE at many vets it would be upwards of $1,800 just to fix, vaccinate, chip, etc. The adoption fees charged by our rescue do not cover our expenses medically for each animal, but we offset costs with donations. Your adoption fee is considered a donation towards actual costs. Why adopt from Three Little Pitties? The stray and animal overpopulation in the Greater Houston area is the highest in the nation.

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.

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.

This beautiful and polite lady is named Fiona. Fiona is looking for a family, and would do well in a hectic home with kids, a peaceful apartment with a first time dog owner, or anything in between. She’s a true comfort dog, a wonderfully versatile girl that enjoys her time in nature and has great house manners. She’s cat tolerant too, she’s the complete package and she’s available for adoption! We think Fiona is an Australian Cattle Dog, Shepherd, Husky mix of some sort, with her gorgeous silvery blue coat and her tall stand-up ears. We estimate her age to be around 4 years old. She currently weighs in at a soft and snuggly 53 lbs. Watch Fiona here: https://youtu.be/DQ_ihW5lU2Y?si=Z0MlLniHhBHngUEN Fiona is currently fostered in a home with a hyperactive pug, who she tolerates beautifully, and two kitties that she almost completely ignores. Here at the rescue, Fiona was cat tested and we believe her to be cat tolerant. See her cat test for yourself in her video. Fiona is wonderful with other dogs, but doesn’t ask for too much canine engagement or play. We think she would do best in a home with an aloof male, that won’t engage her too much, to keep her company. She could also thrive as a solo dog, soaking up all of your affection for herself. Fiona is great on leash and takes direction well. She’s also great at completely settling outdoors, just watching the world pass her by. She’s wonderful in the car and loads and unloads on her own. All of these factors, together, make her a wonderful candidate for a camping companion. She’s not overly energetic, but loves her walks, and could likely be convinced to go on a hike with you too! Fiona’s foster mom walks her almost every day in her neighborhood, and Fiona often interacts with children on these walks. Her foster mom reports that she’s a gentle and sweet angel with all of the children she meets. Fiona is affectionate and loves belly rubs and full body hugs! She’s treat motivated, and takes treats gently. She does well in her crate, though her foster mom does trust her to free roam in the house! She very much sees her crate as her “safe space” and will retreat to her crate when she feels overwhelmed by her doggy foster brother. Fiona is just such a polite and well mannered girl, looking for forever love. We are willing to test Fiona with anything you need us to in order to ensure she’s the perfect match for you! We can make most anything happen! Just let us know. Please email kristin@threelittlepittiesrescue.org with any questions.

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!

Introducing Jazz! 🎉 A charming one-year-old dog in search of her forever home. Jazz is a sweet and gentle girl who loves to explore and play in ponds. 🌊 Her love for playing in the pond makes her a great companion for trips to the lake or beach! Jazz absolutely adores kids, though her bouncy nature means she’d do best in a home with children aged 6 and up. She also dreams of having a doggy friend to play with! Her favourite game is fetch with the ball, and she delights in chewing on her Nu-bones. 🎾🦴 When meeting new people and dogs, Jazz approaches with curiosity and a calm demeanor. While she might be a bit reserved at first, she warms up quickly once she feels comfortable. Jazz interacts well with other dogs, showing playful interest after an initial period of adjustment. On the leash, Jazz does well but would benefit from additional training to build her confidence and improve her skills. She’s a fast learner and very treat-motivated, so she'll be a pro in no time. 🐾 Jazz is curious about cats but doesn’t seem overly fixated on them, demonstrating a respectful interest rather than any aggressive tendencies. She could live in a home with a dog-savvy cat! 🐱 This young dog is still learning about the world around her, and a patient, loving home would be ideal to help her continue to grow and thrive. If you’re ready to give Jazz the space and care she needs, she’s sure to reward you with loyalty and affection. 💖 Adoption link https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/animal/62cc8e128b02916730334440/66a7ba7d8d8cc5f9e4057063 Questions?

Supremely intelligent and brimming with energy. This highly intelligent, graceful dog is born with an instinct to work and responds extremely well to training, which is why they are often used as a mountain-rescue or sniffer dog. Border Collies make loyal, faithful pets that thrive on company and stimulation.
