My story

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

Location: Richmond, VA

Rescued from a local shelter when he was not doing well, turns out Spencer is just a silly, goofy, happy pup full of personality!

He loves to play with his people, he wants to be your best bud, and has never met a toy he didn't like! He is very playful with other dogs, although he needs a proper introduction first. He has a lot of puppy energy and is still learning all that comes with being a good dog.

He needs a family that will continue training and give him the exercise and playtime he needs. He is crate trained and is always up for a walk or a road trip! Then home for a snack, belly rubs, some kisses and couch snuggling!

When he looks at you, it is with pure love, and he has a smile that stretches from ear to ear.

2. Phone interview
3. Reference Checks
4. Meet and greet with the dog you are interested in (and any dogs you may have)

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.
