My story

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

Location: Powhatan, VA

Storm is a handsome male German Shepherd around 6 years old with the sweetest personality. He is a super sweet guy who has gotten along well with other dogs and has been friendly with everyone he has met. Storm truly enjoys being around people and makes fast friends wherever he goes.

This good boy is potty trained and ready for a home of his own. Whether he’s going for walks, relaxing with his people, or just enjoying daily life, Storm is happy to be part of the family.

If you’re looking for a loyal, loving companion who’s ready to settle into a home, Storm could be the perfect fit.

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.
