About Summer Smiles The Sunshine Girl

Summer Smiles is believed to be a German Shepherd mix, about 4 years old and weighing 45 lbs. She's a petite girl who is the very definition of a social butterfly! Summer loves everyone she meets and has an incredibly friendly and goofy personality. She's a go-with-the-flow kind of gal who is happy wherever she is or whoever she's with. She's also dog-friendly and has enjoyed romping and playing with dogs of all temperaments. Summer even did great meeting a resident cat and was respectful of his space. She's a smart girl who already knows how to sit, walks well on a leash, and is crate and potty trained.

Ideal Home

Summer would love a home with a backyard where she can run and play, but she could also thrive in an apartment or condo. She enjoys being around people, so a home where she can be part of the family's social life would be wonderful. She also adores children and has made an instant connection with a 7-year-old.

Ongoing Health

No specific health concerns are noted, but she is up-to-date on vetting.

Training & Support

Summer is already doing great with her basic commands, leash walking, and is house and crate trained. She loves treats, so positive reinforcement training will be very effective!
