š¾ Iām the Strong, Serious Typeā¦š¾ ā¦until my favorite volunteer buddy shows up with my favorite stuffed toy! š Hello! Iām Ringo. Iām a lovable, sweet, affectionate and goofy Pit Bull Terrier mix boy. Iām around 2 years old and tip the scales at a sturdy 68 lbs. Youāre probably thinking, āHmm, this guy looks toughā¦maybe not the friendliest pup here!ā Well, you couldnāt be more wrong! Iām one of those doggosā¦brawny on the outside, but softer than jerky treats on the inside. Think cross between Dwayne Johnson in āThe Tooth Fairyā and Chris Hemsworth in āThor.ā š When we meet, I might seem a bit stand-offish, but please give me a little time to warm up to you. Iām not one of those overly eager doggos whoāll rush up to a stranger and declare my everlasting loveāIāve got more class than that! šBut once I spend some quality time with you and get to know you, Iām ALL YOURS! š„° I really enjoy going on sniffaris! Whether Iām on a walk or hanging out in the yard, Iāll spend a lot of time nose down, reading and leaving pee-mails and keeping up with all the scent-sational news. š¢ I ADORE stuffie toys ā youāll often catch me bunny-hopping around the yard with a stuffie in my mouth, giving it a good shake! Itās my kinda work-play balance, staying fit and having a paw-ty all at once. šŖš„³ But nothing beats hanging out with my volunteer buddies! When I spot them, Iām off like a rocketāshowering them with kisses, butt wiggles, and stealing their hearts all over again! š Iāve got brains to match my brawn too! I know how to āSitā when asked to and am learning how to go āDown.ā š I can be a little picky with treats, but when I do take them from your hand, Iām very gentle. š¶I may, at times, get a bit excited about all the scents and pull on the leash during my walkies, but a short pause or a quick U-turn helps me hit the reset button. When it comes to fellow doggos, I'll admit, I have high standards. My, er, inner drama king might make an appearance if Iām not a fan of a doggo strolling by or hanging out in the next yard. I do tend to be more of a gentleman with the ladies, though. š If youāve got a pup at home, letās do a supervised, on-leash meet-and-greet to see if we can make a paw-fect match! Iām waiting for savvy paw-rents with large breed doggo experience who can see past my tough guy act, love and cherish me for who I am and provide me with the consistent training I need to be the good doggo Iām meant to be. š ## See video of Ringo at the end of the photo gallery! ## TVAR.org/find-your-pet-adopt/dogs-puppies/ Ringoās Shelter ID# is 85132.
