Hey guys! It’s Ranger here! I am a 3-4 year-old boy looking for my Furever Family that will give
me a safe spot to lay my head and wag my tail! My foster mom says that all I need to do is put
my “dating” profile up on GLWR to find my “fur-fect match”! I can’t wait to see who wants to
meet me! I have to tell my own story because I was found mid-winter doing some freestyle
running along a highway when I was picked up by the dog warden. I hid in the corner of my
cage, so scared, until the good people of GLWR picked me up and got me to my foster family.
They immediately fell in love with me (hey, what’s not to love?!) and I quickly became one of the
pack with 3 other GLWR Weim rescue dogs. They had been there for years so I just followed
their lead. I love people and other dogs, but they are older and really set in their ways so we
don’t get to play much. Mom says I have to list my “loves” and “don’t care fors” so that people
will know the real me! So here we go!
Loves:
● Snuggles - I will even jump up on your lap, lean in, and give you a “hug”! I just can’t get
close enough to my hoomans!
● Kisses - I will kiss anyone and everyone - mom says I need to be a bit more exclusive!
● Food - I will eat anything! (unfortunately mom and dad have to watch my fondness for
sticks and leaves)
● Crate - I need an airline crate because the darker walls make me feel safer with the
“denning” effect.
● Hoomans - I just love people, and I think everyone loves me too!
● Dogs - I like dogs too, but I need safe introductions to dogs you may not be comfortable
with my exuberant personality!
● Sleep - I sleep when you sleep! I like to sleep with my humans because they make me
feel so safe - I even like to snuggle under the blankets and curl up next to them!
● Play - I love to play and do fun things with anyone!
● Love - I can’t give enough love and I am the poster dog for rescue - I know I have been
rescued and I do not ever want to go back to my old life again!
Don’t Care For:
● Storms - even just rain. I get anxious and my family often finds me hiding behind the
couch.
● Staying on all 4 paws - unfortunately my mom says I have the “knock-down” factor
because I get so excited to see my family and I like to jump on them. We are working on
this, so I need continued training. I would do best with people who are stable on their
feet and do regular exercise because I need that too!
● Staying home alone - I do ok in my airline crate for 8-9 hours (a workday), but I can
pretty much chew out of wire ones and will shred any type of bedding due to my anxiety.
Because I am a counter surfer, I will do better crated or in a “dog-proofed” room.
My foster family would love to keep me if they didn’t have 3 dogs already because they say I am
one of the best fosters they have ever had out of 25+. Might you be my Furever Home Match?
Help us take care of Ranger
