My personality

My story

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

Ranger is an 11 month old Lab/Shepherd/Husky Mix. He is great with people and is super dog friendly! He attends doggy daycare frequently. He is good with kids but needs to be in a home with kids 15 or older.

A few months ago Ranger started exhibiting a strange behavior in his home, where he would appear uncomfortable and almost fearful when trying to relax. If a member of the family disturbed him when trying to rest, he would react with a warning snap. His warning snaps don’t typically make contact, but now he has made contact twice, once slightly breaking skin.

Outside of the house he is super friendly and affectionate towards everyone. Inside the house, Ranger only seemed to be interested in his mom and her attention. He showed no interest in interacted with the kids or dad.

After trying everything they could think of, and getting no help from “professionals”, Ranger’s family reached out to us for help.

Working with us for a few weeks, Ranger started showing improvements. We were re-introducing boundaries and working on his manners - he needed the reminder that he is not the alpha in the family.

We want to emphasize that Ranger is ‼️NOT‼️an aggressive dog. He is ‼️NOT‼️ actively trying to harm anyone. Please help us find Ranger a new home.
