The Ring Dog Blog

Each week all the dogs in the Powhatan County Animal Shelter will receive an adventure walk and photo session. This program aims to get the dogs out for exercise all while finding out more about each dog so that we can highlight those available for adoption. This program will work in conjunction with the RDR shelter enrichment treat program, Popsicles for Pups, and our regularly scheduled spa days, where each dog is treated to a bath and mani pedi. If you are interested in donating to this program click the donate button below. read more

This sweet boy came in as a stray on September 30 , 2016 we have little information on his history. Monkey is a sweet boy, playful and a really nice size he weighs only 45 lbs. Monkey is about 2 or 3 years old.  

Monkey walks ok on a leash but could use a little work. Monkey was tested with Sophie an un spayed female who he had no interest in and then also tested with Caine an un neutered male who he did let sniff him and jump around but did give a small grumble when the dog got too fresh. Monkey will do best in a home who is active and interested in obedience training. read more
