About Summer

Summer is a gentle and charming lady searching for a quiet home to call her own. She's a beautiful, 6-year-old Pointer mix who weighs about 90 pounds and has a delightful personality. Fully housebroken, Summer enjoys short walks but prefers a relaxed lifestyle, spending her days lounging around the house. She has a preference for a home without other dogs to enjoy all the attention, and she might need to meet any kids under 10, as she can be nervous with loud noises or new faces. While Summer can be a bit picky about her environment, she's an easy-going companion who appreciates affection and gentle pets. She walks well on a leash, although she may pull if she spots something interesting. Tricky stairs are a challenge, so she would thrive in a home with few or no stairs. Her ideal life includes leisurely strolls and cozy evenings by your side, just soaking in the love and companionship. If you're looking for a delightful couch potato to share your home with, Summer could be the perfect fit for you. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
