My story

One thing you need to know about Blinky Baby is that she is a total love bug and snuggly queen. Oh my goodness y’all does this girl love all the affection. Any affection is good affection in her eyes. She loves belly rubs, booty scratches, and leans her whole body into you for affection. But that’s not my favorite thing about her! It’s just the tip of the iceberg berg. Watch her video and see all the other ways Blinky Baby is the girl for you and why she’s so special: https://youtu.be/VhkNAw6PZIU?si=cqmn6eTiKSr_wO_G Blinky Baby is a pittie mix approximately 6 years old and currently weighs 59 lbs. She is a rescue dog and with any rescue it’s always a mystery and we cannot guarantee age or breed. One of my favorite things about Blinky Baby is how happy she is all the time and the way she can easily go from a relaxed lady to a playful puppy when you initiate playful cues with her. You make a quick, silly freeze - strike a pose like you’re mid dance or about to sneak attack and she catches on instantly. Her eyes light up, her tail starts to wag, body starts to wiggle, and then suddenly she burts into the cutest little mini zoomies. Like that inner puppy has just been activated by your goofball freeze tag magic . It’s the ultimate “ready…set…GO!” in dog language. Blinky is vert dog friendly and has been in play groups with dogs all with varying temperaments and personalities. She more people orientated than anything and not overly playful with other dogs. When she does play, it's short and sweet just like her. Blinky is the type that is just happy to be included. She's always the first to greet a new dog into the yard (she's the happiest little greeter) and then she's off doing her own thing again. Ultimately, she's just happy to be there and her favorite spot to be is off getting booty scratches. In a home, Blinky would be best placed with a dog that has the same tempo as her. A dog that enjoys the company of other dogs and up for maybe a light play session or two (nothing crazy). She would also do great as your one and only too if you don't have other dogs. She does not need the company of another dog to help her feel comfortable with other dogs or to fulfill her energy needs. She is a loving gal all on her own and she will be just as fulfilled with a walk around the neighborhood or mini zoom sash in the backyard. Everyone knows that saying, "age is just a number," well that cannot be anymore true with Blinky. As stated above, we estimate her age to be around 6 years old and she doesn't act like a little old lady one bit. Yes, she is pretty laid back for the most part, I would say 60% of the time but she still finds so much joy in all the things. Blinky would love to go exploring through nature trails with you, take a trip to the beach, learn new tricks, and do all the things with you. At the end of the day, Blinky will gladly snuggle up with you on the couch. She also does not need exercise or an adventure for her to want to cuddle and be snuggly either, she comes by her snuggly wanna be lap dog nature honestly. So if you want to have a lazy day and stay home watching movies all day or if the weather doesn't permit for outdoor time, she's happy to have a lazy day with you. Blinky not only has the potential to be your next little adventure buddy but she's super smart too and loves treats! She already knows some commands such as sit and walks like an angel on leash. She is crate and potty trained, has great house manners, and from what we have seen she has always been quite in her kennel. Blinky would thrive in a home with a backyard where she can stretch her legs, get her cute little mini zoomies, and soak in the sun during those nice summer days. If you're someone that works from home, she would be a great work from home buddy. She will absolutely ask for affection every now and then and may even want to snuggle on the couch with you while you answer emails as well. Blinky is great company to have around to matter what you're doing if we're being honest. We have not seen her with kids just yet and we can absolutely test that for you but her loving and gentle nature makes us believe that she would make a great family dog. We are willing to test Bella with anything you need us to in order to ensure it's a perfect match. We can make anything happen! Just let us know. Questions? Email Elizabethbower@threelittlepittiesrescue.org Adoption application:https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/animal/62cc8e128b02916730334440/68470ea1f1d974f71a0da748 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 $900 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?
