Stefano - Great Dane Dog for Adoption in Sebastian, Florida

Did someone ask for a 118lb puppy!? 🐾

Hi there! My name is Stefano, and I'm only a year old! I'm a Great Dane, which means I do everything BIG. I take up a lot of space, I eat a lot, and I have some pretty big paws to fill. But it also means my cuddles are bigger... and so is my heart. ❤️

Despite my size, I'm not a tough guy. I'm actually a little shy when I first meet new people. Shelter life has been really overwhelming for me, so if you ask me, I'd love to get out of here ASAP.

Once I'm comfortable in a home, you'll get to see my goofy puppy side come out. That's when you'll remember I'm still just a big baby! I LOVE toys. Seriously, bring them all my way! Just a fair warning... I also love to chew on them, so you'll probably need to keep a good supply on hand. 😂

The good news? I've lived with both dogs and cats before, so I'd likely fit into just about any family with proper introductions. I'm also housebroken! When someone's home, I'm used to having free run of the house, and if you invite me up, I'll happily join you on the couch or even the bed. When everyone's away, I'm used to being in my crate. One of my favorite things from my kennel at H.A.L.O. is the window. Most dogs can't see out of it, but I'm tall enough that it's no problem for me! I love watching the employees walk by and smile at me, and I could spend hours watching everything happening outside.

More than anything, though, I'm ready for a family of my own. If you're looking for a giant best friend with an even bigger heart, come meet me. I have a feeling you'll fall in love with my goofy self.
