My story

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

Meet Harold, a beautiful grey-coated boy with a white neck, who is approximately 3 years old and weighs around 50 lbs. Harold is fully vaccinated, microchipped, neutered, and heartworm negative, making him ready to find his forever home!

Harold is thriving in his foster home and   gets along easily with his two pittie buddies. While he hasn't been cat tested,we think he may be a great candidate for a home with cats. 

This medium-energy pup is   very well behaved; he is housebroken, crate trained, only chews on his bones and toys, and rarely barks.  With three weeks of board and train, Harold has a great foundation for loose leash walking, distraction control, and basic commands. He is a quick learner and eager to please. 

But what makes Harold truly special is his love for people. He adores human company and would choose spending time with people over other dogs. He would do perfectly fine in a single dog home, where he can shower his human with all his love and affection.

Harold has the cutest quirks that make him even more irresistible. He tilts his head back and forth in the most adorable way while you talk to him, and his expressive ears add to his charm. And let's not forget his sweet pouty lower lip - it's simply too adorable!

When it's time for bed, Harold loves to snuggle into his crate with a Kong and sleeps peacefully through the night. He also takes treats nicely with a flat palm, although he can be a bit speedy and chompy. But not to worry, he is actively working on taking treats gently.

If you're looking for a loving and loyal companion who will bring joy and happiness to your life, Harold is the perfect match. Don't miss the opportunity to welcome this wonderful boy into your home. Reach out to us today to meet Harold and experience his unconditional love firsthand.

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.
