Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! It sounds like Summer could be sick. It is unfortunately not possible to know the extent of this just based on a description and an examination would be quite helpful here to determine this better. I would recommend you have her evaluated by a veterinarian who can perform an examination and gather more information to start determining what may be wrong with her so that therapy can be started to help her. Best of luck!
