My story

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

Location: Gloucester, VA

Here is Claire! Have you met her before? Our sweet punkin, Claire, has been here at the pound for over a year!!! We can't imagine why as she is one of our very favorite pups. She is so funny. She is only about three years old but she has such a calm and thoughtful personality. Look in her eyes and you have to wonder what she is thinking.

Claire enjoys all the attention you can offer, She enjoys easy walks. None of that pulling for her. When she has had enough, she simply sits down for a few minutes just to let you catch your breath(haha). She is also happy hanging out with you in a fenced yard. She will roll around in the grass and take in the joy of the day. She is such an easy girl. Then inside for a nap on the couch or snuggled at your feet. Maybe a snack?

We are very anxious to find this sweetheart a furever home, the one she deserves. Please come meet her so she can have a great new year in her new 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.
