Meet Storm!
A spirited one-and-a-half-year-old Great Dane/Cane Corso mix currently living in Oakland, CA, whose essence is a whirlwind of affection, athleticism, and oversized puppy charm wrapped in a sleek black coat with stylish white accents.
Storm is what happens when gentle giant meets high-octane adventurer! He’s already tipping the scales at around 140 pounds of love and energy, with big, soulful brown eyes that melt hearts and a signature move where he gently places a paw on your lap to ask for attention. This boy isn’t just affectionate, he thrives on connection and is happiest when he’s running full speed after a ball, exploring a new trail, or showing off his ever-growing list of training cues (he’s already mastered sit, stay, wait, free, bed, and quiet!).
Storm is still learning the ropes, but he’s off to a strong start. He’s crate trained, neutered, microchipped, and currently attending positive-reinforcement training sessions (10 total!). His leash reactivity, barking or lunging at unfamiliar dogs, is a work in progress but he’s proving himself to be a quick learner with treat-based redirection. With familiar dogs and slow introductions, Storm can settle in well, making him a great candidate for a home where structure and patience are part of daily life.
Because of his size, energy, and training needs, Storm’s ideal family would have experience with large breeds and an active lifestyle. A fenced yard is a must, but even more important is a guardian who won’t leave this adventurer behind. Storm is not a good match for cats or homes with small children, but he could thrive with older kids and adults who understand the joy, and the responsibility, of a giant, playful pup with a big personality and an even bigger heart.
Whether it’s fetch marathons, Sniffspot yard time, or just a solid training session followed by a nap in the sun, Storm is ready to be someone’s loyal sidekick in all things active and exciting.
