My story

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


Nova is a wonderful, kind, fun and loving dog. Her favorite things are walks where she can stop to smell the roses, all the treats and pets/snuggles.

She struggles with just a bit of separation anxiety but has not ever destroyed anything in her anxiety. The most you'll deal with are some loud whining. But with enough exercise, love, and patience that is sure to go away.

We wish we could provide her with the walks and hikes we know she'd love but we haven't been able to. She hasn't lashed out at us for this but we know she'd love a home where she can get all her energy out. Because of that, backyards are required to home her.

You will receive her food bowls, crate/crate cover, toys, favorite chews, and whatever necessary to make her transition as smooth as possible. She is up to date on most of her vaccines though may have a small tooth issue. She also can have irritated skin in the Spring/Summer months due to possible allergies. Her medicated shampoo will be provided.
