Story
An itty-bitty-Pittie, Weiner Dog mix, ready to be your best friend, meet Taz! Loving, goofy, mellow and relaxed, Taz is just the cutest sweetest boy, all love and loyalty!
Taz weighs in around 30 pounds, and we believe him to be a Pit Bull/Dachshund mix (yep…Pitweenie!!) around a year and a half old. Taz is, however, a rescue. His exact age and breed are unknown to us, and cannot be guaranteed. We can guarantee that Taz is 100% good boy, the most LOVING dog, and soooo cute. He stole each and every one of our hearts here at the rescue, watch his video to see the Three Little Pitties fam melt for Taz’s sweet and silly spirit.
Fall in love here:

Taz is such a charmer, with a big goofy smile, and his cute lil face! This boy loves belly rubs, treats, kisses, hugs and all things “human”!
Taz warms up to new humans SO quickly. He’s a people-loving dog that just wants to be held, pet and snuggled. I’m so sure that it will be love at first sight when he meets his forever family. Taz already has good house manners, and he’s great at meeting strangers on leash- no barking, pulling, or lunging.
Taz was cat tested here at the rescue, and he got along just fine with our house cat, Tom! He’s not playful with cats, he’s just happy to coexist with them.
With other dogs, Taz is a perfect little gentleman. He wasn’t too interested in playing with our BIG beefy pittie mixes here at the rescue, but he did just fine greeting them. Taz has spent most of his time at the rescue with us getting love from any and all humans around. When other dogs attempt to slip into the mix for a little affection of their own, Taz is understanding, makes way and shares the love. No bullying, growling or snapping from this sweet little angel boy.
In the car, Taz is calm, collected and confident. This boy is a superstar on long drives, showing no signs of car sickness, and refraining from roaming, barking or reacting. He’s such a good boy.
Taz would do wonderfully in just about any home, he’s a go with the flow kind of guy, cat and dog friendly. He seems to enjoy calmer settings, and may do best in a calm and quiet household. Taz would love to be your best buddy. He kindly asks that you take him on the occasional outing, invest in his socialization, allow him to trot after you through the house, and snuggle up on the couch with him as often as possible! Taz will make an excellent addition to your pack, or thrive as a solo dog. He’s SO loving, and looking forward to falling in love with his forever family.
Taz is a one-of-a-kind magic dog. His love will make you smile on even your gloomiest of days. Taz is such a loving and sweet good dog, with a wonderful personality, and an excitement for each and every new friend that will surely bring joy to your life.
If this boy is the sweet little angel dog you’ve been waiting for, put in an application today. We are willing to test this dog with anything you need us to in order to ensure he’s the perfect match for you! We can make anything happen! Just let us know. 🐾

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 you’ve 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 dog’s 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 doesn’t 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)
• One free bonus toy in every BarkBox when signing up for their Super Chewer subscription plan
• 70% off of your first order of Fetch, a PNW based, organic fresh dog food loaf meal subscription plan
• Coupons for a fun visit to Petco
• 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!
We celebrated our 5 year anniversary this year! Through the combined efforts of all of our hardworking staff and volunteers, we have placed over 12,000 very lucky dogs and cats into amazing homes! By adopting from us, you save TWO lives! The pet you adopt, and you create an opportunity for another animal to be saved in that spot. Together, we can be heroes.
