Ace
Ace has the heart and muscles of a Lab but the devotion of a Cocker. Mouth open and romping across the floor, then he comes often to lay his head on your knee, waiting, just waiting for you to stroke his head. He has discovered affection and is a little awkward. There can’t be too much. He has had a curious problem with house training. It seems he is afraid to step off of cement into the grass. Once you haul him in, he relaxes a bit, then with patience he takes care of business. Our guess is he was previously put in a yard with electric underground barriers and he exhibits great fear of stepping over the edge of lawn. Such a gentle happy dog, that would have been very frightening and confusing. He is is still reluctant and cautious but learning more and more that it is a good thing, not bad. A move to a new home will require the new owner to reinforce his confidence. He likes to bark at cats so probably not a good match. He would be very good with school age children to help him run off his energy and throw balls. He is heavy enough to knock a small child over with love, so best he not go to a home with toddlers. Got any 7 year old boys driving you crazy? Ace is your solution.
Ace is 2-3 years old, up to date on his vaccinations, is neutered and microchipped. If you are interested in meeting him, please complete an online adoption application.
