Story
Ace will listen to commands. He’s very friendly. He loves the backyard. He’s great with cats and great with kids. My wife is pregnant and we just can’t keep him. He does have a slight flea issue right now and with a new baby on the way we can’t really afford it. We think ace will do great with someone who has a spacious backyard, more time to take him out. Due to our busy lives and work schedule, we haven’t stay consistent with potty training him. Ace has been a big part of our family but we feel that it’s best for him to go to a loving home, and a loving family! Ace really is a sweet boy and is a joy to be around.
