My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Meatball!

Meatball is 60lbs of pure love! Meatball had a rough time at the shelter, he was brought in with a pretty bad ear infection and it made him rather grumpy - nevertheless, that shining personality was on display for everyone when he got his playtime. Since getting out of the shelter he has been elated to meet his new friends, human and dog alike! Meatball is still more timid than most dogs but he's working through it fantastically with training! Meatball is ready for your home, show him the love he deserves!

More about this rescue

We are a 501(c)3 non-profit organization dedicated to rescuing dogs from various Los Angeles shelters the day they are to be euthanized. Our goal is to help provide animals with a second chance to a happy life and to help reduce pet overpopulation through spay and neuter programs. Once rescued, we place our dogs into loving foster homes while they await adoption. We do not keep dogs in kennels. Placing the dogs in foster homes is the first step to rehabilitation, as it allows us to thoroughly evaluate a dog's demeanor and needs enabling us to make the perfect match of dog and permanent owner. We attribute our high rate of successful placement to our foster program. At Ace of Hearts, we do not discriminate against any breed, including those in the bully breed family. Additionally, Ace of Hearts is dedicated to educating the public on how to be responsible pet owners and on the importance of spaying and neutering. We believe the real solution to pet overpopulation is through spaying and neutering pets.
