Story
Meet Ace – The Big Lovebug Who Just Wants to Be Included
Ace has one goal in life: be wherever his people are.
Whether it's a walk around the neighborhood, a road trip, a hike through the woods, or simply relaxing at home, Ace is happiest when he's by your side. He has a joyful spirit, a heart full of love, and a personality that makes it impossible not to smile.
His foster says Ace always seems happy and is ready to go anywhere his people go.

-Walks
-Hiking
-Car rides
-Tug toys
-Playing with other dogs
-Playing with toys
-Chewing bones
-Sniffing and exploring
-Cuddling with his family
Ace's Favorite Thing:
Being with his people.
Ace isn't the type of dog who needs treats to be happy. In fact, this lovable guy would much rather earn praise, belly rubs, ear scratches, and affection. Nothing makes his tail wag faster than hearing he's a good boy.
A Big Heart in a Big Body
Ace may look like a big, round teddy bear, but don't let that fool you—he's always ready for an adventure. He loves exploring, enjoys meeting new people, and has plenty of energy for walks and outdoor fun before happily settling down for cuddle time.
One thing that makes Ace especially unique is how determined he is to make friends. His foster shares that their resident dog hadn't played with another dog since losing his canine companion, but Ace never gave up trying. Thanks to his patient, playful personality, he eventually convinced him to play—for about ten wonderful seconds. That small victory perfectly captures Ace's loving, optimistic spirit.
