About Summer Smiles The Sunshine Girl

Summer Smiles is a delightful German Shepherd mix, approximately 4 years old and weighing around 45 lbs. She's a true social butterfly, bringing sunshine and smiles wherever she goes. Summer is incredibly friendly, smart, and has a goofy, go-with-the-flow personality that makes it impossible not to fall in love with her. She adores everyone she meets and forms connections instantaneously.

Ideal Home

Summer would thrive in a home with an active family who enjoys hosting, as she loves being in the middle of the fun. A backyard for zoomies, playing, and sunbathing would be wonderful, but she also has the potential to do well in an apartment or condo. She is great with kids and has a special connection with them, making her the perfect family dog. Summer is also very dog-friendly and enjoys playing with other canine companions. She was respectful of the resident cat during her stay and a sleepover can be arranged to ensure compatibility with resident felines.

Ongoing Health

Summer is a rescue and while we believe her to be around 4 years old, breed and age cannot be guaranteed. All vetting is up-to-date, including vaccinations, deworming, flea prevention, and she is spayed.

Training & Support

Summer is a treat-motivated learner and already knows how to sit on command. She walks well on a leash and is crate and potty trained, making her ready for adventures like hikes, park visits, or beach trips.
