Ranger is a blossoming, happy boy who is lapping up all sorts of home skills in foster. After nearly a year in a shelter kennel, he’s loving life. You can see it written all over his sweet face. In no time, Ranger has proven himself housetrained, easy on a leash, a good sleeper, playful with his doggie roommate (he lets her win), and eager to learn.

Ranger shows some puppy behaviors like running off with a shoe or rag - maybe his name should be Bandit! - but he’s been in a foster home only a few weeks and those behaviors are rapidly disappearing. At the shelter, his hips were sore after walking about a mile. In foster he is not showing signs of hip problems. No issues with walks or stairs.

Ranger is great in the car and loves toys. He’s also perfecting the art of lazy couch time, which is such a joy to see. You may have to crank up the volume though because this boy can snore.

Adopt Ranger and give him a great life. He comes with training support from the Orange Dot Crew. He's on Instagram @wellsbranchdog .

Ranger is about 2 years old, neutered, and has a velvety dark brown coat.
