Ranger, as sweet as they come...
Facts
Ranger is born in Denmark on January 27, 2006.
Ranger is a free spirited happy-go-lucky guy, quite fearless and very playful and curious.
He is great with children and has his own 2 "people-puppies", whom he plays nice and gentle with. He also has a best buddy, a just about "look-alike", Mona. She is a Jack Russel Terrier and Beagle mix. It is suspected, that even though Mona is the older of the 2, Ranger might be running the show.
Ranger lives with our friends in NE, and is part of Kennel Little Denmark's breeding program.
Thank you so much Marianne for letting him come over "the pond" to be with his new family, he is loved very much!

Ranger the puppy and later the dog
Ranger is a very smart little guy, he can be full of energy, but he also "poops out"...at least eventually!
He has graduated from puppy class as best in his class (less couldn't do) and will proceed to basic obedience training soon. He is quite attentive and listens well, unless he has un-finished puppy business of course.
Ranger is always gentle and sweet with the children, and now he's got one more...a little baby girl in fall of 2007. Congratulations Ranger and family!
Ranger seems to understand that baby is fragile, and will gently lick her hands, not her face.
Good boy Ranger!

Ranger and Mona
The 2 of them are a funny pair...one minute Mona is the boss, the other Ranger calls the shots. They both love playing with each other, and seem to be a "meant to be" pair...both of them have the exact same coloring, even the few black hairs at the root of the tail. Very funny, that they were born on 2 different continents, and ended up together.
Mona is spayed, so there will be no "accidents", but they are still a very cute and harmonic pair.
