We’re Ready to Save More Lives—Now We Need the Space

Mar 29, 2026

Every day in Houston, dogs and cats are fighting to survive.

Some are abandoned.

Some are born into neglect.

Others come to us in conditions that no animal should ever have to endure—injured, sick, scared, and completely out of options.

And then… everything changes.

Because when they come through the doors of Three Little Pitties Rescue, their story doesn’t end there—it begins again.

Who We Are

Three Little Pitties Rescue was built on one simple belief:

 Every animal deserves a chance.

Not just the easy ones—the ones who need extra care, time, and belief.

Because of that mission, and this incredible community, we now save over 3,600 animals each year while caring for nearly 900 at any given time.

Behind that impact is a network of fosters, volunteers, and supporters who show up every single day to make it possible.

 

Where We Are Now

In just eight years, we’ve grown from rescuing animals out of the back of cars to operating a full-scale, multi-state rescue.

Today, we are:

  • A team of 55 staff members
  • Supported by over 1,000 volunteers
  • Operating across three properties
  • Running an in-house medical clinic
  • Providing behavior support and training
  • Transporting animals across the U.S.

 

We’ve built a system where nearly everything happens in-house—from rescue to placement—allowing us to respond quickly and care for animals every step of the way.

We also provide free community services like spay/neuter, vaccines, and supplies—because supporting people is part of saving animals.

And with a return rate under 4%, we’ve become known for making the right matches that last.

Join us. Be part of the future.

For years, we’ve made it work—repurposing buildings and stretching every resource.

But we’ve outgrown our space.

Right now, our ability to save lives isn’t limited by passion or experience—it’s limited by capacity.

And in rescue, space determines everything:

 how many animals we can take in,

 how safely we can treat them,

 and how many lives we can say yes to.

A Turning Point

Recently, we were given 1.7 acres of land next to our current property in Friendswood—an incredible gift from Michael McCarthy.

But now, we have a vision to build something we’ve never had before: A facility designed specifically for rescue. The vision is clear. Now we need the community’s help to make it a reality.

What This Means

  • Treat animals faster
  • Improve disease prevention
  • Increase surgical capacity
  • Support recovery more effectively
  • Reduce medical costs
  • Save more lives

This isn’t just about growing.
It’s about doing everything better—for every animal who comes through our doors.


More Space, More Love

Because space isn’t just physical.

It’s time to heal.
Room to decompress.
The ability to say yes.

More space means more animals saved, more families changed, and more second chances.

And more love?
That’s what got us here—and what will carry us forward.


Be Part of This

Everything we’ve built has been because of this community.
And this next chapter will be too.

We’re ready to save more lives.
Now we just need the space to do it.

Join us. Be part of what comes next.

More space means more lives saved. More love means everything.
