** Ranger is with a loving foster family in Flemington, NJ.  He is being the perfect houseguest, he's housetrained, loving and enjoys playing with their dog.**

Hi, I'm Ranger!  I'm a 1.5-year-old hound lab mix. I'm very personable and lovable, love to be near people and play with my toys. My tail is always wagging with happiness! I do well with other dogs, like to be petted and hugged, I'm good on a leash and like walks. I'm housetrained. I’m relatively mellow throughout the day, at night I like to play a little bit more and can be a little mouthy at times when you engage me in playing, but nothing training can’t fix, remember I am still young. I sleep through the night in a crate, but my foster family says that I would be fine sleeping outside the crate at night. Everyone says I am very handsome!! I’m comfortable with children and like riding in the car. I visited with a cat and was curious, but did not bark, growl or chase the cat.

I can be a little timid/nervous in new situations. I bark when strangers come to the door, but quickly warm up. 

I was diagnosed with hip dysplasia (a birth defect) which does not affect me now but may cause some issues when I am older.  I am currently on sharks cartilage.  SoCo Rescue will help my new family if down the road it becomes a big problem but right now you wouldn't even know it.

I was found as a stray pup with my siblings when I was quite young. I was in a home with a family where I stayed for over a year, but when I grew, I became too big, so now I am looking for a new home! Could it be you?
