Bruno is the epitome of the term companion dog- a well-mannered, easy-going, passenger prince who is ready to be a family man. Add on that he is great with other dogs, easy on leash, smart and a downright cutie and I don’t think it gets more perfect!
Bruno has been fortunate to spend his time waiting for his adoption day in a foster home, giving him a head start on becoming an excellent house dog. Bruno’s foster family absolutely gushes over him, they are his #1 fans and have poured that love into making sure he is ready to be a wonderful pet. It is a delight to watch them talk about Bruno, like proud parents who know they have taught their baby everything possible and are ready to watch him soar.
One of Bruno's favorite activities is going on walks. He eagerly looks forward to exploring the neighborhood and getting his daily dose of exercise. Bonus, he is easy on leash! His size and good manners make him a great walking companion! While on walks his friendly personality shines and he takes any chance he gets to meet new people- kids and adults alike gravitate towards him- his joyful nature is a magnet to dog lovers!
Brunos ideal home can look like so many things thanks to his easy ways. Other dogs are welcome but not needed, kids are always welcome, a few sunny places to lay might be the only requirement. With other dogs he is friendly and relaxed but not the one to start the party. In the company of dogs he is likely to be found hanging out rather than involved in a round of chase. If he is in the company of dogs that are a bit rowdy, which isn’t his style, he will just wander off on his own. He is incredibly content and self-entertaining. If there are other dogs in the home, ideally they would be playful but aloof and not pushy about interaction.
Thanks to the love and dedication of Bruno’s foster family he comes pre-loaded with the best house-dog skills including being house and crate trained. He is comfortable and quiet in a crate, which has allowed his foster to work from home with ease, when Bruno is crated during video calls he has no worry that a whining dog is going to interrupt that. Those alone are a set of skills that are such a bonus!
As far as other pets, Bruno is open to the possibility. He is respectfully cautious and very receptive to a boundary whether its set by the cat or the people he is looking to. We always encourage slow and safe introductions to allow for the trust in each other to be built.
Bruno is a wonderful dog who is full of love, an obvious good boy, a true lover, and the perfect, easy addition to any home. Interested in Bruno? Have question about him or the adoption process- email priya@threelittlepittiesrescue.org

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 you’ve 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 dog’s 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 doesn’t 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)
