Look at Sunny and tell me dogs dont smile! It just isnt true! The best part is that sunshine smile matches the way it feels to spend time with him. This dog has a zest for life that has made me personally want to experience more alongside him and he makes it easy to do. Great in the car, easy-on-leash, steady energy and he honestly makes you feel like the most amazing and important person in the whole wide world. Who doesnt want that in a dog?
If you have ever wanted to be the reason for the sparkle in a dogs eye, Sunny is your boy. His face lights up in a way that can make the good days better and the bad days not so bad.
To add to his almost cliche Labrador-like wholesomeness, he is a fetch all-star! If youre up for it, he is too,but if not, cozy couch time is equally great!
Sunny enjoys other playful dogs and his enthusiasm for play is seriously entertaining to sit sideline for. If there was potential for a perfectly-paired-playmate for him it would be a fun-loving, light-hearted female dog. Those are his favorite buddies! But honestly, if it were all up to Sunny, he would be your-one-and-only! He has more than two dogs worth of love to give thats for sure! If you are a bit of a social butterfly, you and Sunny could be the new Sunny & Cher ( see what I did there.) This guy can work a room, greeting guests with a warm welcome and enthusiasm is his specialty! When y'all arent hosting your neighbors and family and friends, Sunny is ready to be your adventure buddy. With his A+ car rider skills and well-mannered leash skills, whether it's errands or a weekend getaway, this boy is ready! All those trails and look-out points you have saved for somedaywell with Sunny, today will be the day! And if you are planning on training for a 5K in the new year, Sunny is up for that too. We didnt know that until he was the special guest at a Run Club in the city where he showed how beautifully he keeps pace for a jog and can stay focused even when running by ducks and every type of wheeled thing possible. Before or after all the fun, Sunny will join yall on the patio at your favorite spot and just be happy to be there with you.
An ideal home for Sunny would include a yard or access to open space for the occasional game of fetch or for a little nap in the sun. At 60 lbs he is a medium large dog but is fully crate trained and is quiet in or out of his crate so small-home living would be great too! More than anything Sunny needs to shine for someone who looks at him with the same golden-good love he gives. This boy is smart, attentive, adoring, and a wonderful companion.

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 rescues 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 caresuch as dental work, vision care, or orthopedic carecan 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.

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.
