Ace

• Young, active, and fun-loving, two-year-old Ace is in search of good mentors who can channel his puppy-like energy into awesomeness
• Busy and needs training 101; Strong and can be jumpy and mouthy
• Needs experienced dog people; regular exercise; consistency and care
• Good with dogs and lived with one, but needs his people’s full attention for now; Maybe OK with a Cat; Sturdy Kids 12+ who will follow through on training
• A busy boy who can also melt in your lap once his zoomies are out; seeks people who see through to his full potential as an awesome adventure buddy

Hi everyone! I’m Ace, a two-year-old golden with a grown-up body and the manners of a teenager who never got the rulebook. Nobody ever sat me down for Training 101, so I went looking for entertainment on my own, and it turns out a busy guy can find plenty. Homeward Bound is helping me turn the page.

I am interested in everything, all at once. A tennis ball is the greatest invention ever, and I play fetch till I drop. I greet new friends with a happy tail wag and, I confess, both front paws, because nobody explained that hellos work better from the floor. I take treats gently most of the time, I know how to sit, and I am working on my leash skills. Once my zoomies are spent, I will melt into your lap like I invented cuddling.

I’m friendly with other dogs. I met a yard buddy here and we spent the afternoon sniffing around and rolling in the grass like old pals. I have lived with a dog before, so a four-legged roommate might suit me well, as long as you have plenty of attention left over for me too. Cats? We haven’t been properly introduced yet and I think sturdy kids 12 and up who are ready to help with training would make terrific teammates.

I’m looking for experienced dog people with time, a sense of humor, and a love of daily adventures. Give me exercise, consistency, and a patient teacher, and I will repay you with a whole lot of devotion.
