About Ace

American Staffordshire Terrier / Lab
Age: Young Adult
Sex: Male

Unfortunately, my living situation changed and it has been highly stressful on Ace. This is causing Ace to be in a cage for several hours a day. He is in a cage for several hours a day because there are children running around the house. This is causing lots of commotion, creating a very problematic and stressful situation for him and the parties involved here. When he is stressed he tends to lick himself and spin in circles, this behavior I have seen before, then it stopped but now it is a consistent habit given the situation we found ourselves in. Ace is 3 years old, he is a Pit Mix, and I am not entirely sure what else he is mixed with. He was a rescue dog from Florida, so he has some miles under his tail. He has been social with people, he does get very energetic until he calms down. He, however, is not friendly with other dogs or cats. �%A0 Unfortunately, he has bitten me, in April 2022. I believe this, was caused by the stress of moving into a new place and a hard plastic puzzle toy (Starmark Treat Dispensing Bob a lot dog toy). I am not sure if the toy thing is normal, but he acts differently with hard plastic toys where he shows signs of aggressive behavior. He does not show that behavior with any other toys I have given him. I have all of his medical records up to date. I would like for him to go to a loving home, especially one that understands that it takes time for him to be comfortable. So he may bark a lot until he is comfortable with the new environment. I really do love Ace, but I cannot provide for him anymore. I feel like I failed, I have tried extremely hard unfortunately he needs to be somewhere, that can provide the right atmosphere so he can be happy.�%A0
