ars Weight: 6 lbs. House-Trained: In training Crate-Trained: Yes Good with Dogs: Yes Good with Cats: Not tested Good with Kids: Not tested – but we think he’d be great good with considerate/calmer kids Energy Level: Shy at first, but loving once he warms up About Ringo’s Breed: As a Chihuahua mix, Ringo combines the loyalty and affection typical of the breed with an easygoing nature. Chihuahuas are often people-oriented and love to bond deeply with their families, and Ringo is no exception once he feels safe and secure. His mix gives him a friendly and adaptable personality that makes him a wonderful little companion. Ringo is a gentle soul seeking a soft place to land! Ringo may be tiny, but he’s full of quiet charm and sweet potential. He’s crate trained and working on his potty training, making great progress with consistency and encouragement. A fenced yard would be his dream—where he can safely explore, play with his foster dog siblings, and discover the simple joys of being a dog. Though shy at first, Ringo is the kind of pup who blossoms with patience and love. Once he feels safe, he adores gentle pets and will melt into your hand for affection. He’s easygoing, treat-motivated, and takes snacks with the softest little nibble. He’s also learning to walk on a leash and enjoys quiet strolls where he can sniff and observe the world at his own pace. Ringo hasn’t met kids yet, but his sweet nature suggests he’d do well with gentle, respectful children. He’s great with other dogs and thrives in a calm, nurturing environment where he can continue building confidence. If you’re looking for a quiet companion with a tender heart and a gentle spirit, Ringo is ready to find his forever home—one filled with kindness, patience, and plenty of treats. Ringo’s Ideal Home: • A calm and patient home with a family who will let him warm up at his own pace • A home where someone can be around more often to help him feel secure and loved • A bonus would be a home with another doggie playmate • A home with a family who can continue to work with him on his training and feeling more confident Comprehensive details are provided in the dog's description. to ensure a smooth process, please submit a completed application through our website at: crisisdogsnc/dog-adoption/. Please note that questions via email or social media channels may not receive a response without a completed application. As part of our commitment to responsible adoption practices, we require excellent veterinarian references and conduct virtual home visits.

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
