Great tips. I know this popufur issue. It's sometimes really embarassing. Just be yourself and try to get in contact with people without being too pushy :)
Exactly this! I've been guilty of being a little shy when first meeting them, and it's easy to get caught up in putting them on a pedestal, but it's best to remember that they're all just people like you! X3
People ask me "can we be friends" Or say "please be my friend!!" And I really don't want to make them upset, but as you said, its kinda weird when a stranger askes to be friends :"""""")
5 don't's for keeping a good reputation in the fandom 1. Don't steal/copy art 2. Don't give haters the time of day 3. Stay away from drama 4. Dont buy fursuits with stolen credit cards 5. Never, NEVER! Ask for free art or a fursuit
If you wanna be friends with an artist/fursuit maker, please don't put them on a pedestal. Complimenting their artwork is good, but don't like belittle your own work or like act asif they are a god. If you are an artist yourself, ask the person if they wanna do an art trade. Also from my experience commissioning/trying to commission a smaller fursuit maker also works lmao. (This is how I made my best fur friend but like it may not work for everyone)
AliPyro Yeah, I commissioned two small makers to make the parts for my suit and the second to make the head. We talk often and just share about our lives. They're both really sweet people and I enjoy doing business with them and just overall talking to them about their favorite things.
AliPyro I have extreme respect for any good artist, so it would be kind of hard for me. I don’t act that way because I want something from them, I just think what they do is impossible
I’m so shy that when I message someone I feel like I’m having a heart attack when I send it and when they reply. In real life I’m almost as bad with people I don’t know. Except in real life I feel like I’m about to have a heart attack during the whole conversation depending on how long. When I get the reply and when the conversation is over in both real life and not I breath a sigh of relief. I don’t think it gets much worse than this
Me at start of video: after this video I am sure I will be able to get plenty of friends! Me after first tip: *I NEED FRIENDS TO GO TO MEETUPS AND CONVENTIONS THO I WILL DIE ALONE AHHHHHHHHH*
I wish I had seen this video when I first joined the fandom haha. I admit it, was trying chase people for their popularity at first. I just recently realized you can never be happy doing that. I'm happy with the friends I have now. :)
I can really say right now, that I am pretty terrible online when it comes to making friends and socializing. It does not mean I am a bad person or doing something wrong, I am just kind of awkward when it comes to talking to people and I am usually not much of a chatty person. It's the texting part I really do not like a lot to be honest... I don't accept or send requests to people unless I am close friends with them. I am much more social and outgoing with myself in person because I can express myself better and have fun. So yeah, but anyways thanks for sharing these good tips. I can just say this: I love making friends, but it can be kind of hard. That's because I usually try to find friends that I can click with of similar interest. That's just kind of how I am. Otherwise if I know the person is cool and fun to be around, hopefully he or she is not bad news then I am okay with them.
Takoda J Folfsky I’m the exact opposite. Even when I message someone I feel like I’m about to get a heart attack right after I send it and when they reply. It’s sad but whenever I see the reply I actually breath a sigh of relief. My life is sad 😹
These are really great tips! Also if you're a shy person it helps just to make yourself talk to people if you can! At my first time suiting at a bowling meet I was terrified. But instead of standing there awkwardly I made myself talk to some of the other fursuiters and they all immediately showered me with love and compliments! Even if it just starts out with a compliment, it's a great way to meet people and talk. I've been suiting for almost two years now and I still have a long way to go with being social and animated, but I'm getting there!
10/10 would recommend again. So many tips in this video that honestly LOADS of people should think about. Especially in today's society where you almost have to be connected to everyone at the same time, people get so freakin' butthurt only because the one they messaged didn't respond in the first 5 seconds. Of course it always depends on the situation but mostly it's really unnecessary. And also the tip about going into chats is wonderful, surprisingly haven't I seen this one anywhere yet in other videos, not even in other communities really. Maybe some think of it as a self-explaining fact that chatting is a great option to connect with people, but in some communities and fandoms like this one I do believe that many don't consider something like this only because it's never mentioned by anyone. Really great vid Ace, great work! :3
Maybe questions to ask a furry: How come you're furry? What do you like about it? How's the community treating you? Did you make some good friends? Did you know that Majira is gay? I know, it's 2020 and I'm still just shocked. Wanna show me art of your character? Does your character have a backstory? Where did they come from? What is your character very good at? What does your character struggle with? Does your character have a romantic interest? Do you do art yourself? Who is your favorite artist?
Tip #11 - Talk about your hobbies, likes, and goals. Sharing your opinions with people is usually a good way to make friends or at least have a discussion over something (without the drama of course). It can lead to you learning to respect people and consider other things you may not have thought of before. Show interest in the things you care about, but also try to see if there's anything else you might like. Just an idea though. Great video Ace.
About the breaking the Ice part,YES. Please don't just send me some Random message with just "hi". I can't really start a conversation from just a hello. Often those convos just end up being : "Hi" "Hi" "How are you?" "Good" Even sending something like a silly gif can be good way to say hey and give you something to talk about. Also some People you guys may not click with. And that's okay. That just means that it will take longer to make friends with said person.
I was kicked out of a furry chat room in IMVU because I was not dressed up as a furry. This was the first time I had actually ever tried talking to people after a stressful time in my life, as well as the first time I joined IMVU. So much for the "loving, kind" group that furries are. I am so lonely.
little rolling bean that's quite rude. Just because you aren't dressed as a character applies as much online as it does in the real world. Only 20% of furries actually have a fursuit. They should still let you talk as long as you share their common interest.
little rolling bean I think the problem is IMVU. Just because they own FA does not mean they are quality or an accurate depiction of the fandom as a whole. I suggest you try using Twitter or a different network.
Ori exactly. I am a full on furry, I even make and wear my ears and tails everywhere! I am planning on making my first fur suit! But no, for some reason, not wearing furry shit 24/7 means I am not a good enough person to talk to.
Awesome video, Ace, you covered pretty much all the bases! I also wanted to bring up that not every "friendship" is gonna work out. Just like how you're (probably) not friends with every single person in your school, you can't befriend everybody you start a conversation with. Sometimes people don't have enough in common, or personalities don't mesh, and that's okay! Don't try to force it if it feels like you're not clicking. There will be other opportunities to make great friends!
I usually pick my friends by the way they treat me. Im a pretty new face among our local furmeets and many asked me to be friends with this guy and that, but I prefer to get my own opinion. I want to say that it was never very easy for me to get friends, but as you said, better a few good friends than a lot bad ones
I think my advice, since I'm not using it, is to be a great person back. What I mean by this is if they're going through a tough time, be supportive, it will help you and maybe the person get through the day. :)
I’m pretty introverted and when I saw the name of the video I was like “Oh this is going to be obvious and kind of sad”, but then I watched and it was actually useful. I’m both happy and sad now
Thanks Ace, I'm a Christian for upstate New York and I find Furries very cool 1 of the things that's is on my Bucket list is to try to Convert a Furry to Christianity, know it might sound weird but I find you funnies cool and believe that everyone is worth saving.
Furtubers, where kero the wolf looks like a fox and Ace of hearts fox looks like a wolf But in all seriousness y'all the best always looking forward to seeing your video's
just be your self and dont try to be something your not. i mean would you rather have a friend who respects you for who you are or would lie to yourself to be friends with someone you like. obviously i would go with the first option.
This video is a scratch making heaven... The tips are very useful...but not many people in Asia are fursuiters... I'm the only fursuiter in class and nobody knows that.... Thanks for the tips, by the way... Love it...
fantastic video! thank you for all the helpful tips. I'm so bad at making new friends sometimes because I get nervous and don't want to freak them out so I will definitely try these tips. thank you this definitely helps me feel better because now I know a new way to make friends without panicking. thank you so much, and cute suit by the way! :)
I’m lucky to have one of the bigger cons, as in like 1,500-2,000 people right nearby. As in like the nearest city and it’s a 1 hour drive, 1.5 hours if traffic at most to get there. I tried to go last year but during february vacation I see my grandparents, but this year they can’t travel (grandpa’s getting old..) so maybe we might either drive down to their main home or stay here, and if we stay here maybe I can go! I don’t think there are many, if not any in-town furries here in my town though, as it’s sorta small.
How I got into the furry fandom is because my school supports the furry fandom and it was called the furry freinds club and I thought it was one of those clubs where people talk and share opinions on animals but it was something way cooler... it taught me how I made my fursona.There wasn't many people there besides me though...:(
About the last point... ,,Quality over quantity”: ,,Better have one real friend than hundred false friends” - wise words from the mother of my best friend who is Turkish : ]
Here's another tip: Don't try to push a friendship. Yeah message people, see how their days have been, and all that, but if you're having to scavenge for something to talk about and it hasn't even been that long, maybe you two just don't connect.
I met this one fursuiter today at Fur the More, and he was soo adorable! I wish I could've gotten something to contact him with. Also, he did these cute body gestures when he was happy. Can you do a video on body language of a fursuiter?
My tip: Don't message a stranger immediately saying things like *cuddles you* or *boops your nose* etc Most people don't like being touched by strangers and even if you're both furries and the interaction is entirely online, it can still be uncomfortable!
I know others have also given these tips, but it's really nice to get these all in one place at once! Oh boy, the dreaded 'Hi how r u?' X-x Quickest way to kill a conversation for me. I've had a decent number of these, that get followed up by 'why aren't you replying?'. I've pretty much regretted all those messages that started like this that I bothered to reply to X-x For me definitely, I let friendships happen naturally. They're not something I can force. It's all about how you engage with each other and how much you 'click' over time. Btw, do all AZN Furry TH-camrs like to do lists? We sure like our numbers, don't we? =p
love the video and I'm kinda a shy person but knowing these tips will help me down the road. I really want to go to a fur meet but sadly no one I know will come with me because I don't want to go alone the first time
I love these tips! Thanks again Ace for once again, another fantastic video! I don't have a fursona YET, but once I get better at drawing, I'll draw my fursona?
Hi. Wanna be friends? Nah just kidding, this was a great video! I'm slightly newish to the fandom so this was super helpful! One way I've started to make friends in the furry fandom has been taking requests on Furry Amino. I know the app doesn't have the best reputation but so far I've actually had a really great experience there ^^
Thanks a lot I’ll try your tips :D but I only have a dino mask and some paws, I don’t know if it counts as a furry or not! But thanks for the tips ethier way.
I'm basically a russian young fur and in my city I don't know *any* young furs.. In my school I'm not sure any yound furs exist and there is a con that can happen in Moscow (that is a city close to me though i dont live there) but as I said i am a yound fur and can't go there at all even with parents.
Honestly when I get the message "let's be friends!" Out of the blue it's not only pressuring but also kinda scary because you dont know who this person is! They could be a good person but the way they decide to approach you is kinda odd and can make a person questionable. Thats why I personally recommend not doing that
When I go to a con, nobody really wanted to be friends with meh because they already have friends there. And that’s why I was lonely at a con I waited a year for ;-;
very good points to remember for those that may have forgotten, and those that are new. Keep making your videos because they are very helpful especially to a raccoon like me that has a hard time making friends LOL
One thing, what if your local community is really toxic and immature? In Vegas, the community is really bad, so most of my close friends and I don't really get involved anymore. ): I rather interact in person because it does get lonely only having friends that live in other states.
Any advice for how an extreme hermit can be a little more outgoing? I really want to make friends but whenever I try I get a (mild) panic attack. I remember I once walked up to someone I overheard taking about a topic I liked (cars), I opened my mouth to ask him if he ever heard of Colin McRae, (they were taking about rally) but when I tried to talk I made a weird noise, turned red, and walked away. I may have an anxiety issue, anyhoo any help is appreciated. In advanced thank you.
Ace your so cute!Great advice.I have one thats very concerning.My friends are very special to me.After Ive got to know them a while I like sending them gifts or even just a card.Now heres my concern.Im very sencitive.Sometimes when Ive sent a friend something in the mail they dont say thankyou.I usually get upset.Ive lost a coupl friends because of this.What should I do?You might want to talk about this in anthor video
Ah! Ace I think you are just a completely wonderful person-.. animal I suppose. I found this very helpful as I am someone who has trouble making friends as well as keeping them! I’m close to getting my first fursuit and I don’t have any furry friends and I’m very nervous I’ll be out of place the whole time at the con (if I do get the suit!) do you have any more tips on meeting people at cons? I’m also a bit young (younger then 20) and I’m not sure people will feel comfortable with me!
First off, congratulations on your fursuit!!! When you go to a convention, you should definitely check out things like fursuit games and photoshoots :D I end up meeting lots of interesting people just by striking up a conversation at these events!
Hiya names Max and I love watching your videos they are so good specially the tips you give also I was thinking about is are there any tips on meeting a friend for the first time I have a couple of close friends I am going to be meeting for the first time I don't know how to approach them so it will be nice to hear some tips on that

Great tips. I know this popufur issue. It's sometimes really embarassing.
Just be yourself and try to get in contact with people without being too pushy :)
Exactly this! I've been guilty of being a little shy when first meeting them, and it's easy to get caught up in putting them on a pedestal, but it's best to remember that they're all just people like you! X3

People ask me "can we be friends"
Or say "please be my friend!!" And I really don't want to make them upset, but as you said, its kinda weird when a stranger askes to be friends
:"""""")
5 don't's for keeping a good reputation in the fandom
1. Don't steal/copy art
2. Don't give haters the time of day
3. Stay away from drama
4. Dont buy fursuits with stolen credit cards
5. Never, NEVER! Ask for free art or a fursuit
"Don't buy fursuits with stolen credit cards"
Wait what? This is so specific, lol
6. Dont sacrifice people (ANY people) to any gods for stuff idk i was told this a while ago
Be my friend.
#BanjoPals
oml hi pinkieposh X3 love your art on ig
If you wanna be friends with an artist/fursuit maker, please don't put them on a pedestal. Complimenting their artwork is good, but don't like belittle your own work or like act asif they are a god.
If you are an artist yourself, ask the person if they wanna do an art trade.
Also from my experience commissioning/trying to commission a smaller fursuit maker also works lmao. (This is how I made my best fur friend but like it may not work for everyone)
AliPyro Yeah, I commissioned two small makers to make the parts for my suit and the second to make the head. We talk often and just share about our lives. They're both really sweet people and I enjoy doing business with them and just overall talking to them about their favorite things.
AliPyro I have extreme respect for any good artist, so it would be kind of hard for me. I don’t act that way because I want something from them, I just think what they do is impossible
Great video. Wanted to add, Discord seems to be another popular social media app popular with furries
Oh right! :O How could I forget Discord! Thanks for mentioning that!
I would TRY to make friends, but I'm just a little shy. And by a little, I mean a lot. I would LOVE to make fur friends, but I'm just scared to.
PoisonRose the neko I know the feeling
I’m so shy that when I message someone I feel like I’m having a heart attack when I send it and when they reply. In real life I’m almost as bad with people I don’t know.

Me to 😅 no problem whit non furry friend but Wen its a another furries i think i just dont assume the fact that im a furries myself
Tip #11: After you say "Hi", dont start talking about yiff.
I like how happy he is, he's so cheery
Friendship is MAGIC!
(Ponies)
Me at start of video: after this video I am sure I will be able to get plenty of friends!

2) That fursuit is lovely omigoodness
This is brilliant! Thanks so much for sharing these tips!
Thanks Sunny! :D ❤❤❤

I really like your content and how you interpret your character
Thanks! :3 He's basically me but amplified, so it's a lot of fun! X3
Ace of Hearts Fox that's how my fursona is :)
He seems like such a friendly person! I love it
About the breaking the Ice part,YES. Please don't just send me some Random message with just "hi". I can't really start a conversation from just a hello. Often those convos just end up being :
"Hi"
"Hi"
"How are you?"
"Good"
Even sending something like a silly gif can be good way to say hey and give you something to talk about.

RWInnovation okay, thanks :)
Hey Ace, I see your video quality is getting better and better in every videos you have ever made, hope you get to 10k lots sooner; )
Awesome video, Ace, you covered pretty much all the bases!
I also wanted to bring up that not every "friendship" is gonna work out. Just like how you're (probably) not friends with every single person in your school, you can't befriend everybody you start a conversation with.

Great video! New to This fandom so This was so helpful❤️
Glad you found these helpful! :3
And welcome to the fandom! ❤
Ace of Hearts Fox Thank you so much! ❤️ and Wow so cool of you to reply to My comment! :D
some one has walked up to me and asked to be friends before... its very awkward
I think my advice, since I'm not using it, is to be a great person back. What I mean by this is if they're going through a tough time, be supportive, it will help you and maybe the person get through the day. :)
You're my new favorite youtuber!
Also YOUR FURSUIT IS ADORABLE
Near the end he was talking so quickly I thought he was gonna go huff
I’m pretty introverted and when I saw the name of the video I was like “Oh this is going to be obvious and kind of sad”, but then I watched and it was actually useful. I’m both happy and sad now
Go to a nursing home well I did with a group and we gave all the residents fluffy hugs it was fun try it
I made my first fur friend on Facebook, out of all my friends 1 out of the 52 is a fur, lol
Thanks Ace, I'm a Christian for upstate New York and I find Furries very cool 1 of the things that's is on my Bucket list is to try to Convert a Furry to Christianity, know it might sound weird but I find you funnies cool and believe that everyone is worth saving.
I'm new to the furry fandom, and this helped me thank you very much :D
Thank you so much for these tips! I know how to not be super awkward in chat rooms now!
Furtubers, where kero the wolf looks like a fox and Ace of hearts fox looks like a wolf
But in all seriousness y'all the best always looking forward to seeing your video's
Lovely video. This will help immensely. Also, I'm fascinated by your furry eyes. How do they move from side to side so well?
Great video as always!
I managed to meet a whole load of furs when I started an art course, lol. Not surprising when the fandom is 80% art!
just be your self and dont try to be something your not. i mean would you rather have a friend who respects you for who you are or would lie to yourself to be friends with someone you like. obviously i would go with the first option.
This video is a scratch making heaven... The tips are very useful...but not many people in Asia are fursuiters... I'm the only fursuiter in class and nobody knows that.... Thanks for the tips, by the way... Love it...

Really love this video a lot Ace
About the last point... ,,Quality over quantity”:
,,Better have one real friend than hundred false friends”
- wise words from the mother of my best friend who is Turkish : ]
Here's another tip: Don't try to push a friendship. Yeah message people, see how their days have been, and all that, but if you're having to scavenge for something to talk about and it hasn't even been that long, maybe you two just don't connect.
I met this one fursuiter today at Fur the More, and he was soo adorable! I wish I could've gotten something to contact him with. Also, he did these cute body gestures when he was happy. Can you do a video on body language of a fursuiter?
Honestly, these tips really apply in general.
My tip: Don't message a stranger immediately saying things like *cuddles you* or *boops your nose* etc Most people don't like being touched by strangers and even if you're both furries and the interaction is entirely online, it can still be uncomfortable!
I know others have also given these tips, but it's really nice to get these all in one place at once!
Oh boy, the dreaded 'Hi how r u?' X-x
Quickest way to kill a conversation for me. I've had a decent number of these, that get followed up by 'why aren't you replying?'.
I've pretty much regretted all those messages that started like this that I bothered to reply to X-x
For me definitely, I let friendships happen naturally. They're not something I can force. It's all about how you engage with each other and how much you 'click' over time.
Btw, do all AZN Furry TH-camrs like to do lists? We sure like our numbers, don't we? =p
I like your energetic vibes in this video. U make me smile while watching. Thanks a lot. Got urself a new fan ;-)
love the video and I'm kinda a shy person but knowing these tips will help me down the road. I really want to go to a fur meet but sadly no one I know will come with me because I don't want to go alone the first time
I love these tips! Thanks again Ace for once again, another fantastic video! I don't have a fursona YET, but once I get better at drawing, I'll draw my fursona?
Sorry. I meant to put a period.
Understandible have a nice day
Hi.
Wanna be friends?
Nah just kidding, this was a great video! I'm slightly newish to the fandom so this was super helpful! One way I've started to make friends in the furry fandom has been taking requests on Furry Amino. I know the app doesn't have the best reputation but so far I've actually had a really great experience there ^^
Idk, i like to be alone! So does my fursona!
Thanks a lot I’ll try your tips :D but I only have a dino mask and some paws, I don’t know if it counts as a furry or not! But thanks for the tips ethier way.
Tip #10 be careful you you trust can
I like how you say time
As an anti social person this helps thank you!
I'm basically a russian young fur and in my city I don't know *any* young furs.. In my school I'm not sure any yound furs exist and there is a con that can happen in Moscow (that is a city close to me though i dont live there) but as I said i am a yound fur and can't go there at all even with parents.
Because of this I'll b able to go to a fur meet for my first time and interact with people thanks I hope this works out for me.
Ace of hearts fox makes me so happy
Honestly when I get the message "let's be friends!" Out of the blue it's not only pressuring but also kinda scary because you dont know who this person is! They could be a good person but the way they decide to approach you is kinda odd and can make a person questionable. Thats why I personally recommend not doing that
When I go to a con, nobody really wanted to be friends with meh because they already have friends there. And that’s why I was lonely at a con I waited a year for ;-;
Thank you so much for covering this topic!
Sure thing! ^w^
It's one I've been meaning to cover for awhile now, but I wanted to make sure I handle this subject properly!
I think you handled it perfectly :) It's a great video for people to watch who want to meet people and make good quality friends.
Hello, I just wanted to let you know that you helped me figure out i was a Furry! Thank you! Carry on making great videos!
very good points to remember for those that may have forgotten, and those that are new. Keep making your videos because they are very helpful especially to a raccoon like me that has a hard time making friends LOL
One thing, what if your local community is really toxic and immature? In Vegas, the community is really bad, so most of my close friends and I don't really get involved anymore. ): I rather interact in person because it does get lonely only having friends that live in other states.
Any advice for how an extreme hermit can be a little more outgoing? I really want to make friends but whenever I try I get a (mild) panic attack. I remember I once walked up to someone I overheard taking about a topic I liked (cars), I opened my mouth to ask him if he ever heard of Colin McRae, (they were taking about rally) but when I tried to talk I made a weird noise, turned red, and walked away. I may have an anxiety issue, anyhoo any help is appreciated. In advanced thank you.
Does anyone know if there are any conventions or meet-ups in Bulgaria or somewhere close?
Very nice! Although.. I saw a fursuiter with other friends at a con and I want to meet her, but I don't want to be creepy or talk and seem annoying.
advice I can give is..just because you're not popular doesn't mean you're a bad person.
This was great and well put together with what I think is very good advice, well done Ace!!
I dont have way to many freinds but what i lack in freinds i have great relationships with the little amount that i do have
Thank you so much I’m getting some furry stuff next year
3:18 oh yeah, I hate that, It's hard for me to say 'no' no stuff like that because then I feel really guilty.
Ace your so cute!Great advice.I have one thats very concerning.My friends are very special to me.After Ive got to know them a while I like sending them gifts or even just a card.Now heres my concern.Im very sencitive.Sometimes when Ive sent a friend something in the mail they dont say thankyou.I usually get upset.Ive lost a coupl friends because of this.What should I do?You might want to talk about this in anthor video
Yeah but I have lots of Furry Friends But i mean like 2 Furry Friends But its Still kinda hard to Get Furry Friends But Thanks for the tips Ace
I know this is really late but thank you so much for this video! I have no furry friends at the moment but I’m determined to make some!
I have no friends 2006 - 2017 😞😢💔
Be their if they feel down
I love making friends! :) It's nice to have someone to be with at conventions :P
AAAACCCCEEEE YOU ARE IN MAJIRAS VIDEO OOOO (I CAN'T SPEAK ENGLISH VERY WELL)
Ah! Ace I think you are just a completely wonderful person-.. animal I suppose. I found this very helpful as I am someone who has trouble making friends as well as keeping them! I’m close to getting my first fursuit and I don’t have any furry friends and I’m very nervous I’ll be out of place the whole time at the con (if I do get the suit!) do you have any more tips on meeting people at cons? I’m also a bit young (younger then 20) and I’m not sure people will feel comfortable with me!
First off, congratulations on your fursuit!!! When you go to a convention, you should definitely check out things like fursuit games and photoshoots :D I end up meeting lots of interesting people just by striking up a conversation at these events!
Ace of Hearts Fox ah! Thank you so much Ace! I’ll be sure to keep this in mind!!
No furry conventions in the Piedmont of NC
Thanks for the video I'm kinda new into furry fandom, so I wanted some tips.
Hiya names Max and I love watching your videos they are so good specially the tips you give also I was thinking about is are there any tips on meeting a friend for the first time I have a couple of close friends I am going to be meeting for the first time I don't know how to approach them so it will be nice to hear some tips on that
Respect boundaries! 👍
Maybe 10 tips for find fursuit maker?
Thanks
I hate that word "Popufur" too. I've met a lot of pretty awesome furs, I have also met a lot of rude furs, as well.
Draw Free Art, that always works out well to get friends.
Or just use money,food, and alcohol *if you're old enough*.
These are some great tips Ace! Big booper doggo gets a boop... *boop. Yeeh lol.
I love you Ace! Keep up the good work and enjoy making your videos!♥️🦊
