My story

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

Lupin is a young, male, 60 lb pit mixed with something else (potentially shepherd? but we don’t know).

Lupin is extremely agile and athletic, with a TON of love to give! Lupin loves people, and is good with bigger dogs with a proper, slow introduction.  He also is totally happy to be an only dog, but has had many playmates.

He will be your best running partner, hiking buddy or all around great adventure dog!

Lupin is crate trained, housebroken, knows all basic commands (sit, down, come, place), and knows paw, with endless potential to learn more.

Lu is a fun, athletic, young dog that would enjoy an active life with someone who will throw his toys for him. He loves play time and cuddle time, always rolls over for belly rubs and is a super sweet guy.

Lupin's adopter will receive free follow up training lessons where he can show off all the things this smarty pants knows.

If you are interested in adopting Lupin, please fill out an application today!

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)

Our adoption is fee $150.00, due at the end of your week trial, and includes spay or neuter, rabies (if of age), vaccinations, worming, microchip and any other medical required for the health of the particular animal.

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.
