Story
Ace was born about May 28, 2016 and weighs about 43 lbs. He is a really adorable and HAPPY tri-colored boy that was released to us after his human went into assisted memory care. We were sent a photo of a small shack with a dirt floor and a hole for him to go outside into a small fenced area and then he got to get out to go rabbit huntin' now and then. Well, no more and here he is in his foster home all clean, warm and cozy with a choice of blankies to cuddle in. He adores us humans and strives to be near us. His tail is constantly in motion whenever we look his way or talk to him. Speaking of his tail, we were sad to discover that there is a plum sized mass under the base of his tail and at the top of his rectum. The mass was biopsied and it is cancerous and in a location that we were advised would be extremely difficult to fix with a potential the surgery would be fatal. So, Ace is a hospice case and he is welcome to spend his life here with us, but maybe a special human will come along willing to adopt him. At this time he has no idea he has any issues. Ace is happy, appears healthy, and is loving life! He quickly learned the dog door and he, and the friend he came here with, were absolutely delighted to have so much yard to meander and sniff! Ace did well on his car ride here and he does fine on leash. He is excellent with all the other dogs here small and large, he's never been around cats. He is a love and we love him already and we know there are humans out there that can show Ace what his life should have always been like and give him all the love that he's missed out on all these years!
