Ace was at Disneyland for a socialization experience as part of his guide dog training. When he saw Pluto, he couldn't resist. The video shows Ace coming up to Pluto and licking him. You can hear his volunteer trainer, Sandy Steinblums, saying "stay" and "down," which he does.
According to a comment made by Steinblums on the video Facebook post, Ace is in training to be a guide dog for the blind.
"Ace entered his 'formal' guide dog training at the end of January. My 'job' as a volunteer was to socialize and provide him with obedience training. This was training outing and I was too far back to do a proper correction, but golly-be...he responded anyway," she said. "That is my boy and I am proud of him and love the Disney characters for being so kind and helpful!"
