Ranger is an approximately 5-month-old, neutered shepherd/Labrador/border collie mix. He weighs approximately 45 pounds.
Ranger is a happy and energetic puppy that loves meeting new people and making new friends. He really enjoys his time in our play yard, where he can run and goof off to his heart’s content, and he seems to especially love it when volunteers race him up and down the yard. After burning off some energy, Ranger always finds a spot in the shade to relax and cool off.
Ranger is a playful goofball, but he’s also very intelligent. He’s picking up tricks like sitting, rolling over and high-fiving after just a few short training sessions. Continued obedience training along with daily exercise is highly recommended.
