My story

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

Location: Martinsville, VA

Peppa had a bit of a rough start, but she's ready to leave the past behind and start a new chapter with her forever family. This adorable 1-year-old girl was found as a stray, thin and scared, but with lots of love and care, she's now looking better and thriving! Though she’s on the petite side, Peppa is full of energy and loves to play! Being an active girl, Peppa would make the perfect companion for someone who loves going on walks or playing fetch in the park. With her extroverted personality, Peppa is a social butterfly and loves being around people and dogs. This sweet girl was adopted from us previously but unfortunately, returned less than a month later. Adopter stated that Peppa is a great dog and did wonderful with her children aged 6 and up. However, her 1yr old baby was a bit too much for Peppa. Peppa showed signs of being house trained and did great during car rides. She would make a great constant companion for someone who enjoys having a furry friend by their side. Peppa is already spayed, microchipped, and UTD on her rabies, DAPP, and Bordetella.

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.
