Please contact Kallie Brennan (kallieb@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.All you need is love... and a cute pup to snuggle! RINGO STARR NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!! Name: Ringo Starr Best Guess for Breed: Lab and flat-coated retriever mix Best Guess for Age: 4.5 years as of September 2025 SEX: Male Approximate Weight: 61 lbs Gets Along With: Other dogs. We haven't seen him with cats or kids but we are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters! Currently Living at: Shelter. Ringo Starr needs a foster or forever home! Special adoption considerations: Ringo Starr is a truly Lucky Dog. He tested positive for heartworms, but landed in a place where heartworm treatment is provided! Heartworm is not contagious to people or other pets, but results from mosquito bites. Heartworm, if left untreated, is life threatening, but after treatment, dogs that were heartworm positive should suffer no significant long-term effects so long as they are kept on a monthly heartworm preventative. Heartworm dogs can resume full active and normal lives, but need to be kept calm for 4-6 weeks after treatment. We are happy to discuss where in the treatment process this Lucky Dog is in right now! Just email the adoption coordinator - the address is at lower left! Ringo Starr is Looking For: A forever home! Let's see what Ringo Starr has to say: “Hey there, DC—it’s me, Ringo Starr, ready to twist and shout my way into your heart! I'm headed your way from South Carolina, and I’m looking for my forever ticket to ride. I’m no paperback writer—I’m the real deal. My tail wags to the beat of eight days a week, and I promise there’ll be no hard day’s night with me around. All I really need is love (and maybe a few treats), and in return, I’ll let you hold my paw, yeah, yeah, yeah! So won’t you please, please take a chance on me? Adopt me today, and I’ll be the best mate you never knew you needed. With me by your side, you’ll never have to imagine life without love again.” What My Foster Says About Me: Stay tuned! Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken. All of our dogs are working on their crate training. TO ADOPT: The adoption fee for this dog is $475, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations, spay/neuter, and heartworm treatment.
