Ace
Ace – Our Longest Waiting Boy My name is Ace, and I’ve been at the Orangeburg SPCA longer than any other dog. I’m 6 years old, and while I’ve watched so many of my shelter friends find their happy endings, I’m still here… waiting. I was rescued from a hoarding situation where I never truly knew love or care. Because my case had to go through the courts, I wasn’t even available for adoption at first. By the time I finally was, it felt like the world had moved on without me. I can’t help but wonder if that wait cost me my chance at a family. I’ll admit, I’m not perfect. I have trust issues, and I don’t always want to share my toys—after all, I never had much to call my own. I also take daily medication to control seizures, so I’ll need a family who can commit to keeping me safe and healthy. But beneath it all, I’m still just a dog who desperately wants what every dog dreams of: love, safety, and a place to belong. Even at my “old age,” I’ve still got plenty of pep in my step—I LOVE to run and could chase a tennis ball all day long. That goofy, playful side of me is still very much alive, and I’m ready to share it with the right family. Everyone at the shelter loves me and wants me to find my perfect family. They’ve promised to work with my new family in any way they can—before, during, and after adoption—to help me succeed. Because of my long stay and some Malinois-like tendencies, I won’t be adopted out immediately. Instead, the shelter will require several visits with me, with staff supervising, to make sure both me and my new family feel comfortable before I go home. I am neutered, up to date on vaccines, and ready for a new chapter. I’m also open to being pulled by a rescue who believes they can help me find the right home. Please, don’t let me spend another birthday in a kennel. I’ve waited longer than anyone, and all I want is someone to finally choose me. ❤️ Orangeburg SPCA – 225 Ruf Road, Orangeburg, SC 803-536-3918 | aro.spca@outlook.com Hours to meet me: Monday–Friday: 10 AM – 4 PM Wednesday: 10 AM - 2 PM Saturday: 10 AM – 4 PM Closed Sunday Appointments outside of operating hours. Please share Ace’s story—help us find this sweet boy the family (or rescue) he’s been dreaming of.
