Update from his Foster Home in 2024: Ranger is an active smart and goofy 3-year-old German Shepherd. He knows all basic obedience loose leash walking skills and has been learning off leash recall. Ranger has gotten along with numerous dogs of all sizes and breeds but hasn't really been interested in play. His main focus in life is his people and his ball. Ranger's ideal home is an active home that knows how to keep his body and his brain exercised. Ranger enjoys daily walks or jogs a game of fetch and weekly hikes and swims. He may even enjoy trying out some dog sports. Despite being an active and adventurous dog Ranger is gentle and calm inside of the home. He is crate trained and enjoys relaxing on his dog bed next to his foster family and their dogs. He knows and listens to commands. Wants to be with person in home. Needs strong crate when left home alone and he will settle. He is GSD at heart and will guard your home to strangers if not properly introduced. Need GSD experienced guardian that understand GSD's natural behavior to protect or alert. He is great meeting people at events and outings with handler. Due to foster home's increased work and school schedule Ranger needs a dedicated foster to adoption home or foster home. He is very well trained knows commands has great recall and smart. June 2025 Update: No seperation anxiety. Needs to be crated when left home alone. Either at the shelter or previous experience he knows he can escape wires & cheap plastic crates.
