My story

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

Location: Colonial Heights, VA

Introducing Savvy, the adorable pit mix who was abandoned on our property and is now available for adoption! This 3-year-old neutered pup may be a bit timid at first, but once he warms up to you, he's a total sweetheart who begs for attention and loves to flop onto your lap.

Savvy gets along well with other dogs but meet and greets are required to ensure a good fit with any potential canine siblings. Unfortunately, Savvy wouldn't be a good match for a family with cats.

If you're looking for a loyal and loving companion who will snuggle up with you for hours, Savvy would make the perfect addition to your home. Although he may be a bit shy at first, he is sure to melt your heart with his sweet personality.

To schedule an appointment to meet Savy and learn more about him, please call our shelter at 804-520-9397. Don't wait, Savy is ready to find his forever home with a loving family! richardsa@colonialheightsva.gov!

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)

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.
