My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

•Basic Information -
Name: Ranger
Birthday: September 11th, 2021
Health: Wonderful - Neutered at 1.5 y/o to prevent breed hip issues. Most shots up to date as well as flea, tick, heartworm prevention. Microchipped.
•The Good:
- Playful, will play ball or frisbee with you all day long
- Knows basic commands (Sit, Stay, Drop it, Lay Down, Shake, etc)
- House Trained
- Potty Trained
- Crate Trained
- Loves to be active!
- GREAT at training, but needs consistency
•The Bad:
- Reactive in public/with new people, but 100% can be trained out of this
- Is okay with children, but still plays rough, so would prefer a home without small children.
- Pulls while walking
- Barks at pretty much everything (outside, not usually inside)
- VERY picky about other dogs in his home, but could work with the right fit
•Overall a very good boy, but breed experience is a must for him, single dog home, someone with a lot of time for him on their hands, home with a fenced yard preferred. Will answer any ?s!
