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
