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 petite bundle of joy, embodying friendliness and a sunny disposition that's sure to brighten your day. Summer is a true social butterfly, instantly connecting with everyone she meets and radiating a happy-go-lucky personality. She loves people and is a natural at making new friends, making her the perfect companion for those who enjoy hosting gatherings.

Ideal Home

Summer would thrive in a home with a backyard where she can play and sunbathe. She's also adaptable and could do well in an apartment or condo. A home with another dog who enjoys playful romps and companionship would be wonderful for her.

Ongoing Health

Summer is a rescue dog, and while we believe her to be around 4 years old, we cannot guarantee her exact age or breed. She is up-to-date on all vetting, which includes DAPP with booster, Bordetella, and Rabies vaccines, multiple broad-spectrum deworming treatments, spay/neuter, flea prevention, and a 12-month heartworm preventative injection. She has also been tested for heartworms and received treatment if needed.

Training & Support

Summer is a smart girl who is eager to please, especially when treats are involved! She already knows how to sit on command, walks well on a leash, and is crate and potty trained. Her positive attitude makes her a great candidate for further training and adventures like hiking or trips to the beach.
