Ace

The photos of Ace show an agreeable fellow that is waiting for you to give him purpose.. he is a good ball player and will fetch. He could fall in the gentle giant category, and will watch you, is alert, and know how to take care of himself, especially staying cool. In play with some girl dogs here he will stand his ground and then some, so he is coming off now as a bit of a seasoned veteran as opposed to the happy newcomer since the prison visit, (see below) Welcome back, Ace! Ace has just returned "home" from the Prison Program and is ready for his new furever home. While up at the prison, he has learned basic commands, leash walking, and received crate training. Ace is always eager to learn, curious to new surroundings, and overall very obedient. He is a very active dog that loves to run off leash and play with his toys. Ace definitely seems to be like a big teddy bear with how much he loves to be pet and eats up the attention. It might take some time before he warms up to you, but when he does, he might not leave your side. If he would ever manage to get loose, he probably wouldn't run away for the fact that he loves to be around people! He was also known to alert at people he was not familiar with. But with most German Shepherds, Ace has displayed some prey drive that to some people could be a concern. With that in mind, homes with small dogs and cats may not be the best suited home for him. While he was at the prison, Ace took a liking to another female that was participating in the program, Fern. He seems to do very well with another dog so if you're looking for a playmate, Ace could be the one for you! If you're approved, schedule an appointment for a meet and greet with this big boy before he's gone!
