Ranger 08-418 [1]

I know what you are thinking...who is this adorable boy? Well, my name is Ranger. I am an 88 lb, 10 month old, GR/Great Pyrenees mix. I was brought to a shelter in Iowa as a stray. Not too long after that a family saw how lovable I was and adopted me. Unfortunately, they had to return me to the shelter. They loved me very much, but their human kid developed an allergy to me. So, here I am. Ready and waiting for my forever family.

So, yeah I am only 10 months old, but I really don't act like a crazy puppy. Don't get me wrong. I love to play and I do have some puppy energy at times. But, I am actually a really mellow boy. I LOVE to go for walks, and if you have rollerblades, even better. I am very easy-going on the leash. After a little bit of exercise, I am pretty much a couch potato. There are three other dogs here and I have a great time with the one they call Sally. We wrestle and play and we have tons of fun together. There is also a cat here. I don’t pay any attention to him, but he is kind of boring. He doesn’t run around the house or anything! He just lays around the house and acts like he owns the place.

I have only been here with my foster family for a few days, but I am pretty comfortable here. Foster mom and dad have two human kids, ages 2 and 5. They are really nice to me and are always gentle when they pet me. Since I am so well behaved I get free roam of the house at night and also when they are gone during the day. I should confess though, I hate the kennel. I can actually break out of crates. No one knows how I do it. Shhh...it is a secret. Hey, I just don’t like small spaces. Since, I am a good boy when left out, my foster mom and dad don’t make me go in the kennel.

I like my foster family, but I am ready to settle into a permanent home. Please contact placement and let them know you want to meet me. I am planning on being at the RAGOM picnic on Sept. 20.

Keep an eye on my page, I will update you again after the fun weekend.
