Here’s Ranger’s story which is definitely not a new story: Ranger was brought to AALOC by a man who said his parents found the dog but weren't allowed to have pets at their apartment. Ranger looked well cared for and had a new collar. His teeth were clean, and he had a chip with an owner phone number available. Unfortunately, when we tried calling the owners they did not respond, and it is very likely the individual who dropped Ranger off as a “stray” was actually the previous owner. Ranger is a small, adult male poodle mix. Ranger was quiet and seemed sad when he arrived, but without hesitation Ranger allowed the AALOC team to cuddle him. Ranger’s hair is curly and his coat will need to be cut and groomed regularly. Please complete an application to adopt Ranger at www.AALOC.org.
