Meet Nova!

Nova arrived at our shelter on April 4, 2024. She was adopted for five days but was returned when the farm environment – with its dogs, cats, horses, and chickens – proved too overwhelming. 

On a leash, Nova is sweet and gentle, walking like a true professional with impeccable leash manners. Off-leash, however, her strong prey drive can lead to challenges, such as chasing cats up trees.

Nova is bossy to other animals; but with us humans, she is an absolute Love Bug!

Nova would thrive best in a home without other pets, as she tends to be irritated by dogs and cats. She is a very confident dog, and an owner who can provide fairness & clear guidance on what’s expected will build a strong and positive relationship with her.

Nova absolutely loves belly rubs and is eager to please. She’s up to date on rabies, 4DX testing, DHLPP, and Bordetella. While she tested positive for Lyme disease, she has completed a 30-day course of Doxycycline and is ready for her next adventure. Nova weighs approximately 70 pounds.
