My story

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

Location: Blackstone, VA

**URGENT** Sadly, Ember is on borrowed time and has $110 in pledges to a reputable rescue that will take her in.

Sweet Ember is looking for a home of her own. could that be you? Ember has been at this pound for a while now so needs to find safety soon. She does have some money for an appropriate rescue group, but what she would really love is a home of her very own.

After being on her own for so long, it would be a real gift for her to have a place where she is the only animal and could just kick back and bond with her new peeps. Older children who understand her energy and playful personality would be great for her. This sweet girl has a big zest for life and enjoys being where the action is. She loves playing games and then soaking up attention from her peeps. Could you be the home Ember has been dreaming of?

To set up a meet and greet please contact Sheila at 434-292-1099 or email at angelwinstonspackrescue@gmail.com. Thanks for helping a homeless dog.

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.
