About Summer

Meet Summer, a vibrant 1-year-old spayed female Terrier mix. Weighing in at a sprightly 16 lbs, she's a bundle of energy and joy. Summer loves playing with other small dogs and thrives outdoors, where she can run and explore. She's still figuring out the world around her and needs some time to gain confidence with people, but once she trusts you, her playful personality shines. She doesn't enjoy being picked up, so a gentle approach is best. Summer is crate trained and takes to her crate like a champ, especially when there's a treat involved. She's nearly house trained, with a knack for using a dog door as well. While she shows interest in cats, she's non-aggressive and would likely coexist well with dog-savvy felines. To help her grow, she would benefit from a playful companion under 40 lbs and a secure yard to play in. This charming girl already has the makings of a fantastic companion. If you're patient and ready to guide her through her journey, Summer will surely reward you with love and joy. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
