Story
Meet Ranger 🐾
Ranger is a gentle, sweet lover boy who truly embodies what a great family dog should be. If you’re looking for a dog who is wonderful with kids, affectionate with his people, and easy to love, Ranger may be your perfect match.
Ranger is fully potty trained and can be trusted loose in the house. While he still has some puppy curiosity, he has never been destructive when left alone. On rare occasions, if bored, he may investigate things around the house—but nothing out of the ordinary for a young pup.
Ranger does fantastic with other dogs and prefers female dogs, so he would do best in a home with a female canine companion. He currently lives with female dogs and thrives with them, enjoying nonstop playtime—especially with his dog friend River.
While his cat experience is unknown, Ranger is wonderfully respectful of chickens and does not bother them at all—even when they free range.
True to his hound nature, Ranger is loyal and attentive, with a nose that loves to work. He enjoys being outdoors with his people and has done well walking off-leash on trails with supervision. If left unattended outside, he may wander a bit, but never far—and always comes back. Because of this, he does best with an engaged family who enjoys being outside with him.
Ranger does not need or enjoy a crate and would prefer to sleep with his family or nearby on the floor, especially since he tends to get warm at night. He’s a total snuggle bug and is just as happy cuddled up on the couch as he is exploring outdoors.
He has a naturally submissive, easygoing temperament and communicates with the best hound howl and a low, classic hound bark.
Ranger’s only “flaws”?
He loves food and will happily check counters if given the chance—so keeping food pushed back and put away is a must. And like many hounds, he may wander if left unsupervised outdoors.
Overall, Ranger is an incredibly good boy with minimal quirks and a whole lot of love to give. He’s ready for an active, affectionate family who wants a loyal companion by their side—and maybe on the couch too. 💙
