My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Fern!

The gentle 3-year-old Pitbull mix weighing 44 lbs, with a heart as tender as her namesake! Fern is ready to find her forever family, bringing love, affection, and plenty of kisses to share.
Fern is a sensitive lady, especially when meeting new people. It may take her some time to warm up, but once she does, she's a sweet and affectionate girl who loves to give loads of kisses!

If there are children in her forever home, Fern would do best with kids aged 13 years old and older. Her sensitive nature requires a calm and understanding environment where she can feel safe and secure.
Fern shows great potential to live with another dog in her forever home, although she can be a bit selective when it comes to canine friends. With the right fit, she loves the company of another dog and enjoys playing with them.

Fern's future home will be one filled with patience, love, and understanding as she continues to blossom and grow. With the right match, she's sure to become an integral part of the family and bring joy to everyone she meets.

Ready to welcome the gentle spirit of Fern into your life? Call 330-487-0333 ext 226 to schedule an appointment and let the delightful presence of Fern fill your home with love. Your forever friend is just a call away!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

All of our adoptable animals are up-to-date on all age appropriate vaccinations, spayed or neutered, de-wormed, de-flea and microchipped before adoptions are finalized. All dogs over six months of age receive a temperament assessment by our Certified Professional Dog Trainer to ensure appropriate placement. Also, many animals in our care receive basic obedience training to improve manners and increase adoptability.

We are currently doing adoptions by appointment only. Please contact us by phone at (234) 212-9843 or email at adoptions@summithumane.org, and an adoption counselor will return your message. They will review our adoption process, answer any questions, and tell you more about the animals currently available for adoption at our shelter and in our foster program. If we have a match for you and your family, an appointment will be scheduled to meet the animal.

Additional questions can be directed to our adoption team at (234) 212-9843.
