A little about them

Hi, I’m Summer—a strong, loving girl ready for a fresh beginning. After being found as a stray with injuries to my legs and feet, I healed physically and emotionally with help from my foster family. I love people, enjoy snuggles, and did wonderfully with children in my foster home.

Ideal Home

Summer would thrive with a patient, loving family willing to provide structure, security, and continued socialization. She enjoys outdoor time and running around the yard doing zoomies. She has made doggy friends with slow, proper introductions.

Ongoing Health

Summer’s previous leg and foot injuries have healed. Her adoption package includes age-appropriate vaccinations, heartworm and flea/tick preventative, heartworm and tick disease testing when applicable, fecal analysis, and a health check before adoption.

Training & Support

Summer is doing well with leash training and is learning to keep all four paws on the ground when excited. She knows “sit” and “no,” and is smart and eager to please. Continued positive training and socialization will help her keep growing.

  • She is spayed, and a voucher is provided if a dog is not already altered.
