My name is
Ace!

This handsome boy is Ace, a mixed breed pup surrendered to the Mesquite Animal Shelter on 3/5. Yes, folks that makes 4+ months as a resident at the shelter and it is wearing on him! The stress of living in a 7 1/2' x 4' kennel without the opportunity to get out daily to stretch his legs and go to the potty, as well as listening to dogs barking all around him is affecting him negatively. A staff member mentioned that he sometimes reacts in an unfriendly manner to dogs who walk past his kennel. If you are interested in this youngster, please ask the shelter staff for a dog test. Former owner stated that he lived inside, is house trained, lived with and was OK with other dogs and does NOT like cats. Reason for the surrender was that they have or are expecting a baby. Ace will sit for treats, but is a bit too eager to take them gently. He is a friendly boy and is OK with receiving petting and being loved on. He also knows the paw and stay commands. He walks fine on a leash.
