Skylar may look like she belongs in a weightlifting competition, but this big, beautiful girl is really a softhearted sweetheart who would much rather spend her afternoon soaking up affection. Beneath that strong, muscular exterior is a gentle, people-loving companion who appreciates the finer things in life: sunshine, comfortable couches, tennis balls, and being told just how beautiful she is. And yes, she really does love compliments! Tell Skylar she's a pretty girl, and you might just be rewarded with a happy little tail wag.

Skylar is a peaceful homebody who enjoys taking life at her own pace. She's perfectly happy lounging in the sunshine, watching the world go by, or keeping her favorite person company. She's also convinced she's lapdog material, regardless of how much room she takes up! When she wants affection, she'll happily lean into you for some extra scratches or offer a few sweet kisses. There's something especially endearing about such a strong-looking dog having such a tender personality.
And don't forget the tennis balls! Skylar absolutely loves them and has an adorable habit of carrying one around proudly while twirling with excitement. She's also a smart girl who knows basic commands, including sit, and enjoys showing off her skills for treats. She's been introduced to walking with a Gentle Leader headcollar, which helps provide guidance for this strong girl. Her future family should be comfortable handling a powerful dog and continuing her positive leash training.
Skylar is happiest when she can focus on the people she loves, so we're looking for a home where she can enjoy being the only dog. She would also do best in a home without cats. Her ideal family will appreciate her affectionate personality, provide a peaceful environment, and enjoy having a devoted companion who doesn't need a busy social calendar to feel fulfilled. Skylar has also done well with children ages 5 and 7 during behavior assessments, and we believe a family with older, dog-savvy children could be a wonderful fit.
Like many dogs beginning a new chapter, Skylar will benefit from a consistent routine, patient guidance, and opportunities to continue developing good household habits. She'll need a family committed to helping her settle into home life successfully, including appropriate enrichment, supervision, and a positive approach to house-training and crate routines.
What makes Skylar so special is how naturally she connects with people. She's affectionate, gentle, and happiest when she's close to someone who appreciates her company. She doesn't need a house full of pets or endless adventures. She'd love a comfortable place to relax, a few tennis balls, plenty of affection, and a family who will make her feel treasured.
Skylar is ready to be someone's favorite couch companion, loyal shadow, and very best friend. She's got a big heart, a beautiful personality, and so much love to give. All she needs is a home where she can finally be the center of someone's world.

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 rescue’s 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 care—such as dental work, vision care, or orthopedic care—can 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.
It doesn’t stop there! Our adopters also receive these SPECIAL PERKS:

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.
