He's a time-traveling golden retriever who has a nose for trouble . . . and always saves the day! Ranger has been trained as a search-and-rescue dog, but can't officially pass the test because he's always getting distracted by squirrels during exercises. One day, he finds a mysterious first aid kit in the garden and is transported to the year 1850, where he meets a young boy named Sam Abbott. Sam's family is migrating west on the Oregon Trail, and soon after Ranger arrives he helps the boy save his little sister. Ranger thinks his job is done, but the Oregon Trail can be dangerous, and the Abbotts need Ranger's help more than they realize! Review: Great Book Series! - Ranger in Time is an exciting book series about a time traveling golden retriever. Ranger travels back to important events in history and helps a child who is in need. In Rescue on the Oregon trail Ranger meets a kid named Sam. He helps Sam as his family travels across the United States on the Oregon trail to find a new home in the west. I love this book because it adds history into an adventure story. While the characters and stories are fiction the event of the Oregon trail really happened. We get a glimpse of what life might have been like back in that era all the while following Ranger the dog who is very entertaining. Review: Fabulous Book Series - As part of our homeschool curriculum, I require my son to read aloud for 20 minutes each day. Finding quality books that are challenging yet enjoyable, and do not push any particular agenda, is difficult at best. This series is well written and keeps the child engaged as Ranger goes on his rescue missions. It is also a great way to approach subjects that are difficult to talk about. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #15,054 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #13 in Children's Time Travel Science Fiction #199 in Children's Dog Books (Books) #826 in Children's Action & Adventure Books (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 1,164 Reviews | ## Images ![Rescue on the Oregon Trail (Ranger in Time #1) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81bvjMpGhML.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Media Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Book Series! *by R***N on October 12, 2022* Ranger in Time is an exciting book series about a time traveling golden retriever.

He loves his human family and chasing squirrels but one day he uncovers a mysterious and magical box and is transported back in time. In the first installment of this series, Ranger ends up in 1850 on the Oregon Trail. It's here that his search and rescue training becomes second nature as he helps a new family and their friends survive a wagon train ride west. It's a delightful book with historical insight and author Kate Messner does not gloss over the realities of life on a wagon train across the prairie. Not everyone will survive the journey but most will thanks to Ranger to the Rescue! No doubt Ranger will time travel to many exciting periods in time always trying to get home to his family. This is simply a delightful book for children that adults will enjoy and appreciate. I can't wait to read more of Ranger's travel in time adventures. ## Frequently Bought Together - Rescue on the Oregon Trail (Ranger in Time #1) (1) - Danger in Ancient Rome (Ranger in Time #2) (2) - Long Road to Freedom (Ranger in Time #3) (3) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/11887502-rescue-on-the-oregon-trail-ranger-in-time-1](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/11887502-rescue-on-the-oregon-trail-ranger-in-time-1) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-09-10*
