**Fostered in Vancouver, WA and ready for meet & greets!**
You won't find an easier companion than Barney. He's the perfect pup for a first-time dog owner, or someone who wants a flawless addition to their family. He adores kids and wants to be with them all the time, he's gentle, affectionate, calm, and tolerant.
When Barneys ears turn out and his little tongue just barely hangs out, and he looks up at you with those puppy eyes, there is nothing cuter! He is outgoing, social, chill, playful, and very well behaved for a puppy. He has a very calm, yet confident demeanor. He is potty trained and crate trained, and even knows a few commands already.
Barney is so handsome his dark eyebrows above his beautiful eyes make his entire face so expressive. This fellow manages to communicate everything he needs which is mostly treats, toys, and lots of affection. He loves to play, but also loves a good snuggle session with you on the couch. He is very food motivated but takes his treats so gently.
Barney is the best buddy. He is currently 8 months old, 50+ lbs, and we think he may be a Pitbull mix, but with rescue its a guess! He loves going on adventures and rides easy in the car. He is pretty calm and chill, making him a great addition at any dog-friendly cafe.
Barney is very dog friendly, currently lives with multiple dogs, and has even spent time at Camp Bow Wow where he got to play with all kinds of dogs. He does have a rough and rowdy playstyle, which is common for pitties. He loves kids and is great with them, especially slightly older kids that are sturdy on their feet. He has been fostered with cats, but he likes to play with them and chase them, so he would probably do best in a cat-free home.
Barney is still young so he will need a family that can commit to training, socialization and all the dedication puppyhood requires. He already has a great foundation, thanks to his foster family, and just needs to polish up his skills.
Don't miss your chance to add this lovable pup to your family!

*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 youve 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 dogs needs. 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 doesnt 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)
