My story

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

Meet Penny, a vibrant and playful young pup, between 10 and 12 months old, with a stunning red and brown merle coat that turns heads wherever she goes. Weighing in at around 40 to 45 pounds, Penny is a joyful bundle of energy and affection. She’s an enthusiastic squirrel chaser and a giver of endless kisses! Still mastering the art of “dogging,” Penny is learning how to share her toys (it’s a work in progress!), but she’s quickly becoming more comfortable around other dogs and people during her walks. Her favorite things in life? Playtime, cuddles, and sitting politely for treats and meals. Penny thrives on being part of the action and absolutely hates missing out on any pack activities. With her loving personality and playful spirit, Penny is truly a good girl at heart. Thank you, Penny, for filling every day with joy!

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)
7. Finalize adoption (contract, collection of adoption fee and transfer of medical records)

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.
