My story

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

Location: Gloucester, VA

Hello, My name is Gretel. I am just a baby at 6 months old. My brother, Hansel, and I came into the shelter without much experience in the big world. A nice volunteer took me home so I could learn all the things I need to be a happy and well mannered pup, that will help me find a new family of my very own, where I can live happily ever after. Let me tell you, I have been learning so much! I know how to walk on a leash, and know how to go outside to potty, how to sleep in my bed and share my toys. I have been living with two big dogs, and they treat me like their little sister. I love being with other dogs, and I have a cat friend too. I would love to have a doggie sibling or two, or children to play with. I am just a pup so I will need lots of help being a new member of the family. Foster mom tells me I am a good girl and that I am adorable...hee hee.I always have a big smile on my face, and you could have one too if you come meet me. I can show you all the things I have learned.

To meet, contact Joyce at 757-376-8360 text/call

I hope I will see you soon. I can hardly wait!
Thank you for helping a homeless dog.

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.
