Meet Rockin’ Ringo!

This young pit bull could be your spring sweetheart.

It’s almost March, and the first signs of spring will soon appear. Why not find an energetic and cute companion who will motivate you to enjoy the fresh air and see the first spring blooms on a beautiful day?

Ringo is your guy. First of all, as a huge Beatles fan, I love his rock star name. And this dog lives up to his identity. He’s a memorable pup with a huge zest for life! You won’t want to sit down for too long because he will put a nice pep in your step!

Ringo is a 1-year-old pit bull-terrier mix who loves to run around and play outside. He is also not an ounce shy when it comes to giving kisses and showering a person with affection!

While pit bulls are commonly thought of as aggressive and intimidating, Ringo's kind demeanor proves this is a general misconception.

Ringo is a participant in the Animal Humane Society's Project Pit Bull adoption program. The goal is to match exceptional pit bulls with exceptional owners. It is important that Ringo’s adopter commits to ongoing training and socialization to ensure he remains a shining example of a well-mannered pit bull. To help achieve this, adopters receive a free eight-week training pass to Animal Humane Society’s Training Schools at the Coon Rapids, Golden Valley, Woodbury and Minneapolis airport locations.
