Pet of the week: Summer

Summer is a 1-year-old spayed female brown smooth-coated Chihuahua. At first she may seem a little shy, but give her time and it will be worth your wait. Her size makes her a great candidate for apartment living. Summer does enjoy the outdoors and taking leisurely walks, but she needs to be an inside dog. Prior to adoption, the family and other pets should have a meet-and-greet to ensure that Summer is the perfect fit. For more information on Summer, contact the Burbank Animal Shelter and inquire about ID#A037831.

The shelter is at 1150 N. Victory Place, Burbank , phone (818) 238-3340. Hours are 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Saturday, 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday. Closed major holidays. To view Summer or to inquire about other available pets, visit www.thevbas.org. Adoption fees are dogs $104; cats, $78; bunnies $30 (prices include spay or neuter, vaccinations and microchip.)
