Story
Meet our Little Piglet Lucy!
Why piglet in her name you ask? Because piglet communicates through snorts! If cuddles, lazy days, short walks, endless kisses, and lots of napping is what you like, Piglet was meant for you ❤️
Piglet is happiest when she is lounging around the house being your companion. We would definitely describe Piglet as a low energy dog. When she sees you every morning or after work, you’ll find Piglet wiggling her entire body, begging to be held. The amount of love that she gives, and the bond that she creates with people is insurmountable. Piglet was born to be a companion!
Please take a moment to watch her adoption video, to get to know her, her quirks, her squish, her lazy ways, and see if she is a good fit for your home!

Little piglet thinks that all dogs are her friends. She loves their company and loves walking around the yard with them. When she goes to playgroups, she constantly greets every dog, has short bursts of energy, and the rest of the time is seen roaming the yard, checking on her friends to make sure they’re having a good time! Her favorite buddies are small dogs though. She also loves the company of kitty cats.
Little piglet knows how to live life to the fullest. She enjoys car rides, she loves short walks to the mailbox (😅), she loooves cheese sticks, but her greatest love is the couch!
Piglet makes the perfect office buddy, she sits quietly at your feet and can do so for hours while you work on your laptop. If you’re looking for a dog you can take to work with you and sit quietly, Piglet is ready to join the workforce.
Piglet has swooned over every person she has met. Every morning, she will greet you with silly faces and snorts. This girl is so low energy that getting her to leave the couch even for a sit requires a lot of exertion on her behalf. It is the funniest thing to watch! She has enough personality to outdo 10 dogs! There are no strangers in her world. In her mind everyone exists to carry her, kiss her, and tell her she’s perfect. I mean, she’s not wrong though lol
How we convinced you yet that she’s the perfect family pet for you?

*WE ARE TOLD THAT WE GO ABOVE AND BEYOND MEDICALLY. This is the feedback we tend to get, although we cannot guarantee perfect health.
*To fully vet a dog in the PNW 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. 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 provide weekly socialization programs for our dogs through playgroups and group leash training classes available to all dogs in our adoption program, and Doggy Sleepover, Doggy Day Out, and Ambassador programs for our boarding dogs. There is a professional dog trainer on staff to provide support for our fosters and dogs, and an off-site dog trainer for dogs that need more extensive behavior modification. This helps us learn deeply about every dog, prepare them for adoption, and ultimately match them with loving families. 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.
