Ace
4yr old neutered male
Meet Ace – a goofy, affectionate 4-year-old GSP looking for his forever home!
Ace’s story started in a rural Texas shelter before he was transported to Boise, Idaho after the July 2025 floods. He was briefly adopted by a wonderful older couple who adored him, but his high energy proved to be more than they could keep up with. Now back in foster care, Ace is showing us every day what a fun, lovable dog he is.
True to his breed, Ace thrives on daily exercise and loves to run. His foster family is working on recall with an e-collar, and he’s catching on quickly! He’s also great on leash - easy to redirect back from scents and squirrels. Ace is learning his basic cues like sit, down, and stay, and he’s always happy to work for cheese. He’s a toy enthusiast and loves everything from stuffies to balls, kongs, and bumpers.
Ace has done well with his foster brother, though he will benefit from ongoing training and socialization to refine his manners and boost his confidence.
Because of his bumpy past, Ace does have some anxiety, but with regular exercise, a solid routine, and the comfort of a crate, he does well.
His ideal forever family will have someone home more often than not, and be ready to include him in daily exercise and adventures.
Ace hasn’t been formally hunted, but his natural scenting, searching, and steady points on the trail make us think he could have potential as a hunting companion.
If you’re looking for a devoted, fun-loving companion who will keep you laughing and active, Ace may be the perfect match!
