Description
Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog. 6/15/26 Update: Sadly Ranger was returned back to us. He did great with his family since they adopted him 7/7/25 but their house hold is now to busy with visitors and strangers socials. Ranger will guard his home and family from strangers. Ranger need a quiet routine home with adults only that have stronger experience with a GSD with some protection traits. Need introduction to new people on leash or put away until stranger leaves. Ranger is very well trained but he did not have enough drive for protection dog training and career. He has some protection skills to protect his home and family. He is great with their dog and other dogs. Great hiking dog. Just recently he will also jump into a pool to get a ball at his training/home boarding. Ranger was rescued from a distant shelter when his time was running out. He is very friendly dog social smart BFF and great hiking buddy. Ranger is magnificent! 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 separation 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. He is calm and quiet in the crate I have him in. Never had an issue. His FB/Instagram Video: Ranger's journey. .facebook/reel/609031675132214

Overview:
The German Shepherd Dog, a truly iconic breed, originated in Germany in the late 19th century, primarily for herding sheep. They are easily recognizable by their athletic, medium-to-large build, typically weighing between 50-90 pounds, with a distinct double coat that can be black and tan, sable, or solid black. Known for their intelligence and loyalty, German Shepherds possess a remarkably trainable and courageous temperament, making them exceptional working dogs in fields like police and service work. While generally good with families when properly socialized, their high energy levels and need for mental stimulation make them unsuitable for apartment living without significant daily exercise. Prospective owners should be aware of common health concerns such as hip and elbow dysplasia, as well as degenerative myelopathy, underscoring the importance of responsible breeding and regular veterinary care.
