Summer is a gentle, cautious adult German Shepherd with a past shaped by life on the streets of Bakersfield. She’s about six years old and, though still reserved from her time as a feral dog, she’s come a long way since entering rescue. Summer wants to trust, and with people she knows, she’ll even seek out a bit of affection. She enjoys roaming and playing with other dogs, but anything too far from her routine or shelter life can make her anxious. Despite her worries, she’s never shown aggression—only fear. She’s looking for a home with patience, understanding, and the willingness to let her grow at her own pace. Summer is house trained and does well with other dogs, making her a good fit for a calm, steady household. The adoption fee is sponsored for her. They are waiting with paws crossed! Apply now!
