About Summer
☀️💙🤎 Meet Summer 🤎💙☀️ Every once in a while, a dog comes along who makes you stop and ask, "How are you this wonderful?" That's Summer. The best way to describe her? EASY. But honestly, that doesn't even begin to capture how truly lovely she is. Summer arrived at the shelter in heartbreaking condition—dirty, battling skin and ear infections, with painfully overgrown nails and heartworm disease. With every reason to feel scared or unsure, she surprised everyone. Instead, she chose kindness, trust, and love. Fostering her has been an incredibly joyful experience. ✨ Why we love Summer: 🐾 Already house trained—EASY! 🐾 Already crate trained (and she loves her crate!)—EASY! 🐾 Gentle on leash—EASY! 🐾 Sits and takes treats gently—EASY! 🐾 Confident with stairs—EASY! 🐾 Living peacefully with other dogs—EASY! 🐾 Cat tested (with only the occasional swat 😉)—EASY! 🐾 Past the destructive puppy phase—VERY EASY! 🐾 Learning “off” because she loves people and wants to hug them—EASY! 🐾 Ready to slide right into your home and your heart—THE EASIEST! 📍 Currently fostered in South Jersey, Summer is approximately 2 years old and weighs about 41 lbs. She’s a beautiful Catahoula mix, fully grown but could gain a few healthy pounds. Summer is undergoing treatment for heartworm disease, which she is handling wonderfully. You can adopt her during treatment as All Mutts Matter will cover the costs. If you're looking for a dog who will make your life easier, your home happier, and your heart fuller, Summer is waiting. ☀️💙🤎 Apply today!
