HI.
My name is Clyde.
I am about 2 years old, and we think Im a mix of Australian Kelpie and maybe a little Miniature Pinscher, but not totally sure! My foster mom googled Australian Kelpie, and I look almost exactly like some of the photos.
So were thinking that Im mostly Australian Kelpie.
Im a really good little guy, and I am full grown.
I weigh 45 pounds, and am not expected to get much bigger.
I know how to sit and Im working on other commands.
Im smart and if you snap your fingers and point to a chair, I will jump up in the chair and sit there.
I typically get a treat for doing such cool stuff, so that would be greatly appreciated! I am very treat-motivated, and I like to make my foster parents happy and proud of me.
So I try my best to be a very good boy.
I pretty much like any kind of treat.
But I really love Milk Bones and Bully Sticks.
They are two of my favorites.
Dinner time is my favorite meal of the day! I get so excited! I am still a young guy, so I am pretty active.
I get really excited when my foster parents come in the house, and sometimes I get a little jumpy, but I settle down pretty quickly.
I am house trained and I will hold it until I can go outside, as long as I get to go out often enough.
I will typically whine if I need to go out, so I will let you know if I need a potty break.
I like other dogs, but a slow introduction is needed.
Im not a fan of small dogs, because they run from me, and sometimes I chase them and scare them.
Im just trying to play, but sometimes Im a little too much for small doggies.
I have five foster brothers and sisters that I play with every day.
Some of my photos show me with them.
We all get along very well.
I love to run and play with all of them.
My foster mom says she will be more than happy to talk with you about me.
I promise to be the best boy if you decide to adopt me.

Our East Coast route will travel in a private, air conditioned 3LP-run van transport.
Pick up day is unforgettable! You will get to follow along on their journey through a private FB Event page, where you will see photos, have the opportunity to connect with other adopters, and receive updates and constant communication along the way.
One of our Adoption Coordinators can help to find the closest transport pick up location to you! The adoption fee is $725 and includes all vetting as recommended by our doctor: DAPP (2 to 4 depending on age and time in the program), Bordetella, Rabies vaccine (if old enough), multiple broad spectrum deworming treatments, spay/neuter, flea prevention, 2 months of heartworm preventative, extended medical such as dentals, eye surgeries, and orthopedic surgeries prior to adoption when suggested by our partner vets, a microchip with free lifetime registration, a high quality nylon Martingale collar for dogs over 4 months old, a health certificate deeming the pup healthy for travel, cost of transport*, and many priceless years of love and loyal 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 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) 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.
