Sterling would be a perfect match for a family looking for a dog who likes to have fun, or for a person who likes to spend time in the great outdoors! When volunteers take Sterling out for a jaunt in the nearby park, they are almost guaranteed a fun time-- with his tail going back and forth like a metronome the entire outing, they know Sterling is thoroughly enjoying himself, too. He loves to stop and sniff many a bush, and to greet the canine passersby along the way. Sterling seems to do well with dogs, and would run around and frolic with one all day, if given the chance. Sterling is a bit too "fond" of cats though so we recommend a feline-free household

Sterling's diminutive size (he's slightly larger than a full-blooded Beagle) is perfect for new dog owners who are not up to the challenge of a strong constant puller, just as his easy-going personality is ideal for a family who takes trips into the wilderness or has some land which a curious dog like Sterling can explore at his leisure. Sterling enjoys his creature comforts as well, for when provided with a soft blanket for the evening, Sterling quickly nestles up in it, grateful for the thoughtfulness of a devoted volunteer.

Although Sterling is a Beagle mix, he does not howl like one at all, so you won't be screening calls from angry neighbors about any mournful baying emerging from your home. To top it all off, Sterling will readily heed commands and respond to correction, demonstrating his intelligence and his eagerness to please his human companion. Come meet this wonder of a dog for yourself!
