Sterling is a one-year-old male Great Dane in Dallas, TX. This black giant is altered and up to date on vaccinations.

About Sterling

Sterling was found as a stray along a busy highway. Initially, he appeared thin and unwell, showing signs of neglect with a rash and infected ears. But after some tender care, this big goofball transformed into a playful companion who loves toys and strolls—yes, he even holds his own leash! When the heat gets too intense, he adores lounging on the sofa. Sterling enjoys the company of other dogs, big or small, though he sometimes gets shy and retreats when they engage him in play. His joyful spirit is hard to resist. Sterling is ready for adoption through Furry Friendzy. Please note that prospective adopters will need to complete an application, provide three referrals, go through a home visit, and get a vet reference before welcoming him into their home. Sterling is already neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. Think you are the one? Submit an application!
