Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Say hello to Scorpion!
He is a 1.5 year old Pit Bull mix who weighs about 51 pounds. Scorpion is a bubbly and gregarious boy who has boundless energy! He is a young boy who loves to run around and play, go on long walks, and snuggle up in your lap. He`s a typical young male dog who is always ready to go on an adventure or have a rough and rowdy play session.
Scorpion shows potential with other dogs, but he is still learning some manners, so he would need a slow introduction to new dogs and would prefer a dog that he can wrestle and play with. Scorpion has a history of chasing stray cats so he would not be able to live with a cat in his forever home.
Since he can be a wild man, he would do best with kids ages 13 and older who can manage his excitability. It won`t take long until Scorpion shows you what an adorable and snuggly pup he is.
Scorpion can`t wait for someone to walk through the door and give him a forever home!

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.

If we have a match for you and your family, an appointment will be scheduled to meet the animal.
