Story
Meet Maddox! The solid white pittie goofball boy who loves toys, toys, and more toys! If you’ve been looking for a boy to add excitement and fun to your life, then you have come to the right profile!
We believe Maddox is a pittie mix, who is about 2 years old and weighs approximately 50 pounds. Due to him being a rescue, age and breed cannot be guaranteed. But what he lacks in DNA results he makes up for in good looks! This guy is one handsome pooch!

Maddox is the one who is known to bring the party! He loves to play the day away! If you give him a toy and a treat, that boy is in hog heaven! When he met some of the dogs on property, all he wanted was to get them to have fun with him! He especially bonded with Aurora, a medium energy, but playful, female! They were zooming on and off the couch and having the best time! He is dog friendly and would do great in a home with a dog similar to Aurora. He would be the best playmate to another dog who knows when it’s time to play and when it’s time to rest. Maddox has the makings of being a very good doggy brother!
Maddox is such a fun boy and wants everyone to be as happy as him! Even cats! LOL. Due to his love for life and playing around, it would be best if he was in a home without kitty friends! They might not appreciate his enthusiasm, haha. As far as children go, he has a lot of joy in that stout little body and loves a good game of tug of war! We haven't seen him with smaller children, but would recommend that he is in a home with older kids that know how to interact with a strong dog like Maddox. If you are interested to know how he responds around a specific age of child that is in your home, please let us know and we will be happy to check for you! We want to make sure he is perfect for your family!
Another perk about Maddox? He is such a good car passenger! He loaded in the car so well when he spent time with our director of behavior, Olga. He wasn’t stressed out at all as the car was in drive. Olga bragged “Great car rider! Loves people. No barking at people through the car with the windows down when we were at the gas station.” He is ready to load up on our travel bus and head to his new forever home!
Maddox could do well in a home with a yard or in an apartment with an owner who is dedicated to providing him with the daily exercise that he needs. He is mindful and quiet in his crate and only starts to talk a bit if other dogs are walking by. He also would be a great guy to take with you hiking and exploring the great outdoors.
Maddox is such a hoot and is going to be somebody’s very best friend! Does he sound like your new best bud? Apply for him today!

We facilitate adoptions across the US through our own internal transport to ensure the quality of care. We travel to WA, UT, OR, ID, VA, PA, OH, NY, CT, VT and Canada (Canadian adopters will need to pick up in Bellingham, WA or Brattleboro, VT for the eastern Canadian border)! Our pups travel in comfort with 24/7 care on our USDA licensed vehicles, including buses and cargo vans. You can join along on our private Facebook event page to follow their adventure, connecting you with other adopters and providing updates throughout their transport journey!
You will get to meet your new pup over a video call before signing paperwork, creating a fun and personalized adoption experience!
The adoption fee is $900 and includes all vetting (DAPP with booster, Bordetella, Rabies vaccine, multiple broad spectrum deworming treatments, spay/neuter, flea prevention, a 12 month heartworm preventative injectible, heartworm test and treatment if needed, a microchip with free lifetime registration, a high quality nylon Martingale collar, a health certificate deeming the pup healthy for travel, cost of transport*, and priceless years of love and loyal companionship!

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 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.
