Thea Pretty Baby Loves Her Humans

My story

Look at this perfect pittie princess!! Meet Thea, an affectionate sweetheart whose love language is big hugs and even bigger devotion. She’s the kind of dog who will press her whole body into you as if to say, “You’re my bestest friend in the whole universe!" And she’ll mean it with every ounce of her heart! Her foster describes her as “sweet as the day is long,” and there’s truly no better way to put it! Thea loves her people! She follows them like a shadow, lives for connection, and is always ready for a good treat and a booty scratchie! We believe that Thea is a pittie mix of some sort around 4 years old and weighs approximately 50 pounds. She has that gorgeous blue coloring and the best pittie block head! Due to her being a rescue, age and breed are our best guess and cannot be guaranteed. But there is no doubt she has 100% cutie in her genetics! Check out Thea here:https://youtu.be/WLoTGTKA27M While she lives with two foster dogs, a small pup and a bigger, older companion, Thea is more of a people’s dog than a dog’s dog. Preferring couch cuddles and human company over rowdy playdates. During her visit with us, when she was in the yard with some of our resident pups, she would join in a small bursts of play before wandering back to the water bowl. She’s respectful around other dogs, never policing or pushing her way in when play breaks out, but she’s just as happy watching from a distance! For that reason, she’d thrive as the queen of her castle, or with a laid-back canine roommate who respects her space. Though she’s a strong girl with some of that classic bully breed power behind her, Thea is an excellent student! She’s been working on her leash skills and responds well to guidance from a confident handler. A gentle tug is often all it takes to bring her focus back, especially when treats are involved! She’s incredibly food motivated, which will be a great tool for continued training! She let me put on 4 different hats/bows and showed off her sit all for the sake of a treat LOL! Because of her size and exuberant affection, Thea would do best with older kids who can handle her enthusiasm! She lives with 4 kiddos aged 12 and up in her foster home and they have an absolute blast together! Often playing tug of war with a rope toy or enjoying some quality time in the pool. She's not a match for homes with cats, as she’s shown a bit too much interest in feline friends. As far as the ideal living environment, she’ll do best in a home with a yard where she can stretch out her legs and lounge in the sunshine. She isn’t very high energy and won’t be the first one to volunteer for a quick run. But she is super devoted to her people and gets the occasional blues when they leave, so apartment life may not be the best fit for this girl. This magnetic, treat-loving cuddlebug is ready for her forever family! She is ready to learn what the good life means in a home that will love her all of her days. I see her enjoying her days cuddling on the couch with her people and enjoying sunrises together on the front porch. If you're looking for a smart, loyal, goofy companion with a heart as big as her head, Thea might just be your girl! Does Thea sound like your future bestie?

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 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!

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!

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?
