My story

Suki the social cutie… there is no better way to sum her up! This girl showed up and literally had everyone squalling over her wrinkly little legs and adorable face! She is pocket size and perfectly itty-bitty, giving house hippo charm with a side of perfect piggy. When she walks her whole body slinks along, slow and steady. To be honest she doesn’t have a fast-mode, so if you live life in a rush ,Suki is only going to make you late. But if you are looking for a perfect homebody companion…here she is! We believe that Suki is an bulldog/pittie mix, somewhere in that pocket bully range and her age is estimated to be around 4 years old. She currently weighs 41 lbs and we expect her weight to settle in around 44-50 lbs. She is always going to be giving short and squatty. Things this girl will never be called- shy or anti-social, this girl can work a room and is truly driven by wanting to greet everyone. She isn’t pushy about it, I have only seen her make a tiny hop in an attempt to get someones attention once and they were tall so I think she wasn’t sure if they could even see her down there. Once she makes a connection, if they offer any kind of scratches (ears, belly, booty…) then she is coming in for more and will become a puddle at your feet or in your lap in 2.5 seconds. That move is only followed by a more forward snuggle cuddle. She is an affectionate little thing! When Suki was introduced to other dogs it was easy to see, she is polite but dogs are something she could take or leave. She was perfectly good company, unbothered and easy-going but this is a dog that is here for the people. Being someones one-and-only dog would be her dream and we have no doubt she would thrive! Kitties are welcome though, from what we have seen, she doesn’t even pay them much mind. Thanks to her quiet and calm nature, Suki could easily be an apartment girlie. Potty breaks and a few free pets would be perfect for her. Plus, Suki is house and crate trained and loves car rides! Suki met a 4 and 5 year old on the afternoon we spent together and she slid right into the mix. She was great with the kids but there only complaint would have been that she played on top of their building blocks. She just wanted their attention! Her calm almost lazy nature might be a bit boring for little ones looking for a playmate/ adventure buddy. Older kids or even a kid free home with occasional guest kiddos would be perfect. Suki is an absolute cutie and is ready for her fur-ever. You may have to give her a little boost onto the couch sometimes but once she is there, she is going to be there for a good long nap, snort-like-snores practically guaranteed. Ready for Suki love?

Email priya@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 $1000 and includes all vetting (DAPP with booster, Bordetella, Rabies vaccine, multiple broad spectrum deworming treatments, spay/neuter, flea prevention, a 12 month heartworm preventative injectible, 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.
