Notes: Ace is Doobie's brother and was found in a house, abandoned by the owner. Ace is a sweet young dog, one to two years old, who likes people and loves walks in the field and the woods. He is mostly house trained and walks well on leash. He is pretty easy-going and should do fine with older children but he is fairly large, 60-65 pounds, and may be too large for smaller kids. Ace is looking forward to having a home of his own with a fenced yard so he can spend time outside and hopefully lots of walks in the woods with his family, And lots of quality time inside with his family so he can get on with his hope of a future as a couch potato.
