Meet Shirley Temple
One version of Shirley Temple is the innocently charming, fancy sweet drink loved by kids, of course named after an adorable actress. This Shirley Temple is just as innocent and sweet!
There is something about her that exudes an innocence, in the way a little kid is curious but respects a stern no when needed, she is at the perfect age for training and shaping. While at the rescue she will work on lots of skills but the real magic happens when they get home. Being welcomed into a home and family looks good on any dog but it really does something amazing to a rescue dog. So imagine what all her sweet enthusiasm for play, adoring attention, and eagerness to learn is going to amount to! An already great dog with the beauty of a loving family is really special to witness, even better to know personally.
Shirley was fortunate to have a foster home during her formative puppy months and that has served her well. She is gentle, has great house manners, and is crate trained. She can occasionally get a bit vocal in her crate if you are near or other animals are out having fun and she feels left out. It all comes from a sweet place, she wants to play too!
Shirley would benefit from a home with a playful dog, maybe even a bit older, who she could shadow for a few weeks to really take notes on the ins and outs of being a house dog. A mentor, but who also likes to play! A yard for bouncing around in and exploring would be dreamy!
If you have a cat, no need to worry here, Shirley is so respectful of cats. Even though she is curious she keeps a respectful distance and wouldnt dare even think about trying to chase or be pushy with a cat. We love a respectful dog!
Since she's still a young pup, Shirley will thrive with a family ready to continue socializing and training her to be the best and most well-rounded dog she can be. Leash skills, greeting people, navigating public spaces, all the best skills are built on training and practice no matter how old a new dog is. She comes ready to learn and ready to become your walking buddy, hiking partner, passenger princess, and so much more!
So go on and order a Shirley Temple!
Kisses are included for no additional charge!

Available for adoption in NV, MT, CO,UT, ID, OR, WA, Canada, and now the East Coast! Our PNW dogs are brought to you in style by a beautiful USDA licensed semi-truck, equipped with air conditioning for comfort, two drivers, and 2 onboard attendants providing 24 hour care. 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 $825 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
