My story

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

Location: Richmond, VA

GRiZ is a super happy and friendly guy with some basic training under his belt. He was with a family for several months, but GRiZ just wouldn’t leave the cats alone. GRiZ loves other dogs, but other dogs don’t always love him because he is a lot of dog! He has a very rough and rowdy play style and very forward greeting. He seems to be potty trained and knows sit. We were also told that he was crate trained in his previous home. He loves everyone he meets, so come by and meet this sweet guy!❤️

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.
