About Ringo

Ringo was on the euthanasia list at a shelter with a severely broken left rear leg, most likely from being hit by a car. He has had surgery to repair the leg, has healed, received his medical clearance and is now ready to be adopted. We have learned a lot about Ringo since his last update. He is a very sweet dog that has some challenges from his previous life. Ringo is slow to trust people and in general is wary of them. He has made significant progress but needs continued reinforcement from his people and needs to learn that he can trust them. He needs a family that is relatively quiet. Loud noises, unexpected noises, or just excessive activity cause him some distress. For this reason, a family with no children is preferred. Ringo seems to do slightly better with women than with men. Ideally his family should have minimal alone time and a retired or stay-at-home individual would be a big plus. Ringo needs a family that has a lot of experience with dogs and is familiar with training. He gets along great with other dogs. His new family should also have one or more dogs that can provide Ringo with 1) companionship (when Ringo is feeling overwhelmed he will seek out one of our other dogs to lie down with), 2) mentoring (Ringo is always looking to our dogs for cues on behavior), and 3) playtime (Ringo is always trying to engage our dogs in play). Ringo has many other great qualities that clearly indicate he's going to be a fantastic dog for some lucky family. He just needs somebody to invest in him. Labrescuers.org
