About Sammy Stings

Meet Sammy Stings, your future best friend. At around 5 to 6 months old and weighing in at about 45 pounds, this charming boy is a delightful mix of Pointer and Hound. With his striking gray and black coat, oversized paws, and a heartwarming personality, he’s an old soul trapped in a puppy’s body. Sammy enjoys the joys of puppyhood, like playing and exploring, but he equally appreciates calm moments spent lounging with his family. Sammy is potty trained and generally has excellent house manners. He sleeps soundly in his crate all night long, wakes up ready for a beautiful day, and loves to go for walks, where he displays impressive leash skills. His friendly disposition makes him great with other dogs, and he greets everyone he meets with sweetness. Although still young, he thrives on being part of a family and doesn’t require constant entertainment; sometimes he’s just happy chewing on a toy or watching the world outside. Ideally, homes with kids aged 8 and above or an active family with a fenced yard would be the best match for him. Apartments or townhomes may be too confining for this playful, energetic pup. If you’d like to meet Sammy, please fill out the adoption application on the Starfish Animal Rescue website. Get ready to welcome an incredible companion into your life!
