My story

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

Location: Cyprus

Meet our furry friend Saxon who has spent over a year in the pound, patiently waiting for a loving family. This lovable dog is eager to share tail-wagging moments, endless companionship, and unconditional love. They have a heart full of loyalty and are ready to become your lifelong companion. Saxon is low-maintenance, has shown he can be house-trained while in foster, and enjoys leisurely strolls and watching the sunset. He's the perfect match for someone who appreciates the joy of a calm, lazy day or going on an adventure.

Saxon has worked with a dog behaviorist and has been muzzle trained. He would benefit as an only dog or introduced into a home of smaller female dogs very slowly. He cannot be in a home with cats. This courageous boy has overcome leishmaniasis with a wagging tail and a spirit that shines bright. We hope to find someone ready to open their heart and home and give this wonderful dog a second chance at a happy life. Let's make their journey from the pound to a warm, loving home a reality.

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.
