Story
This gorgeous girl is good with small and large dogs, cats, kids of all ages, and great in the car! She’s so affectionate, but not overbearing about it. An angel on earth, ready to join your pack!
Are you ready to add a 45 pound bundle of sweetness to your family? Stormy is your girl! This sweet girl is estimated to be around 2-3 years old which means she’s at that sweet age of still young and playful but also loves to hangout and chill. She’s so playful when it’s playtime, but has such a mellow softness to her when she knows it’s time for relaxation and rest. Just barely out of her puppyhood, this girl is still SO trainable, and learning commands with her foster family!

Stormy is an outgoing, friendly girl who is sure to bring out your playful side. During playgroup sessions, she does well with other dogs big or small. When it comes to making new friends, Stormy is a natural. She greets other dogs respectfully, gauging their interest before proceeding to play. With humans, she’s very friendly, and with kids specifically, she is so soft and gentle. Stormy has met kids as young as three, and does well with all of them, regardless of what’s going on around her.
One of the cutest things Stormy does is she’ll place her paw on you as you pet her. As if she’s saying thank you for being there.
You'll find that Stormy is not just a loving companion but also learning to be a good leash walker! She does well next to her foster siblings as someone to guide her. She’s getting better on leash every day, and with a little polishing and perfecting, she will be a wonderful walking companion.
Stormy would do best with a family who can commit to some daily exercise with her- walks or backyard time, and enjoy play time with their furry companion. Stormy adores people, and would do well as an only-dog, but could absolutely live and thrive with other dogs in the home. Here at the rescue, Stormy was cat-tested, and our behavior team found her to be cat-tolerant. Stormy is well-suited to live with dog-savvy cats.
Stormy is not the biggest fan of being left in a kennel as she gets a little anxious but she’s a doll when just left out to wonder. Her foster family is working on her crate skills, but she still prefers to free roam- she’s a rescue girl, we don’t know her history and we have grace for her little quirks. You can check out her pictures to see her cuddled up in her favorite places!
Do a virtual meet and greet with this sweet soul and let her steal your heart with her irresistible charm! Adopt Stormy today and embark on a journey filled with loving companionship.

*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 provide weekly socialization programs for our dogs through playgroups and group leash training classes available to all dogs in our adoption program, and Doggy Sleepover, Doggy Day Out, and Ambassador programs for our boarding dogs. There is a professional dog trainer on staff to provide support for our fosters and dogs, and an off-site dog trainer for dogs that need more extensive behavior modification. This helps us learn deeply about every dog, prepare them for adoption, and ultimately match them with loving families. 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)
