My story

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

Say hello to Scarecrow!

He is a 2 year old Husky mix who weighs about 45 pounds. Scarecrow is a handsome fellow who is as sensitive as his name suggests. He arrived in our care after being tied to a tree abandoned, so he is still learning to trust new people and new places. Once he knows you he is a sweet and snuggly boy who loves sticking close to his favorite people. He may not enjoy going on adventures with you or exploring outside of his comfort zone, but with his favorite people he is a total lovebug.

Scarecrow absolutely loves other dogs and thrives in an environment where he can have a canine companion to help build his confidence. Since he is so social with other dogs, he would prefer a home that has another dog so he can have a constant companion. Due to his sensitivity, if there are kids in his forever home he would do best with kids ages 13 and older that can give him space while he`s becoming comfortable.

If Scarecrow looks like the pup for you, stop in today to meet this handsome boy!

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.
