Big Boys
Ace (brindle) and Max (black & white) were in a litter of 10 puppies. We were able to find homes for the rest. Now it's their turn. They are very loving dogs. They greet us at the gate and at the car every time we come home. They love to run (Max more so than Ace) and wrestle with each other and the other dogs at our home. They have been outdoor dogs for the most part, but love coming indoors and would adapt well. They just turned a year old and still like to chew.
