My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Location: Arlington, VA

Noel has been with Lucky Dog for more than 783 days, patiently waiting for someone to notice her. With her cropped ears and shy demeanor in public -- it is easy to see how she could be overlooked. What people don't realize is that this seeming wallflower becomes a confident and playful dog in the home as long as she has another dog in the home to show her the ropes -- so much so that Noel starts her day by play wrestling with any dog she can find. She would thrive in a quiet home with another dog. She walks well on the leash, but does best in quieter neighborhoods where loud noises won't scare her. She is truly an amazing dog.

Please help spread the word and email info@luckydoganimalrescue.org or visit luckydoganimalrescue.org if you think Noel could be a great fit for your family.

Steps to adopt

1. Fill out an Adoption Application
2. Phone interview
3. Reference Checks
4. Meet and greet with the dog you are interested in (and any dogs you may have)
5. Home inspection
6. 1 week trial run (in home)
7. Finalize adoption (contract, collection of adoption fee and transfer of medical records)

Our adoption is fee $150.00, due at the end of your week trial, and includes spay or neuter, rabies (if of age), vaccinations, worming, microchip and any other medical required for the health of the particular animal.

The entire process can take 1-3 weeks to process, so please be patient and understand if you live outside of the Greater Richmond Area, the process may take longer. Our goal is to place the right bully in the right home.

More about this rescue

Ring Dog Rescue is a 501c3 pit bull rescue organization based out of Richmond, Virginia. Our focus is on the rescue, rehabilitation and long term placement of pit bull-type dogs in our region, as well as on the continued and ongoing education of the general public on the true character of these dogs and their role in altering the current societal perception. In 2009, Ring Dog Rescue placed 87 dogs in loving, permanent homes across Virginia, North Carolina, Maryland, Washington D.C., New Jersey, Pennsylvania and South Carolina, representing a 26% increase in dogs adopted from 2008. Our dogs come from various sources, including local kill-shelters, as strays or even as removals from neglectful situations. Our dogs are provided full and complete medical care, including spay and neuter, vaccines, microchips and remediation of any ailments the dog may suffer, placed in foster homes, taught to be a family dog and then placed in an adoptive home, after a thorough screening process.
