Story
This puppy is in Tennessee. Adoption Donation $250 if picked up in TN, $325 plus transport fee for out-of-state adoptions. Meet Novi, a friendly and confident Shepherd mix puppy. At 11 weeks old and weighing 21 pounds, Novi has the perfect amount of energy. She loves running around the yard, playing with other dogs, and enjoys some downtime with her humans. Novi is the kind of pup who can have a rough-and-tumble play session and then settle down for a nap at your feet. Novi's playful nature is incredibly endearing. She loves to play with dogs of all sizes. When a bigger dog knocks her over, she gets right back up and dives back into the fun. Novi is a quick learner; she already knows how to sit for treats and food, uses a dog door, and is getting better at walking on a leash. She’s eager to please and would thrive in a training class or with some dedicated training time at home. Novi knows "Sit" and "Come," and she’s learning to "Wait" when her humans go out the door. She follows hand signals to go up and down a play ramp and is crate-trained, sleeping quietly through the night. Novi is also housetrained with a dog door, making her morning, after-meal, and bedtime potty trips a breeze. Novi enjoys chasing a ball, playing tug with toys, receiving affectionate pets, and sleeping near her favorite human’s chair. She loves exploring the yard and playing with other dogs. Novi gets along well with other dogs, from tiny puppies to older, larger dogs. She’s met children and enjoyed walks and playtime with them, making her a great candidate for a home with kids over 8. Novi needs an active family who can spend time with her and continue her training. A home with a fenced yard would be ideal for her explorations and playtime. Novi would love to have a friendly dog sibling to play with and children who can include her in their activities, like walks or hikes. She’s a sweet-tempered pup who craves attention and will quickly become a loyal, well-behaved companion with the right guidance and love. Interested in adopting?

Prior to adoption, all canines and felines are spayed or neutered, have received their age appropriate vaccinations, have been de-wormed for common parasites, and have received treatment for prevention of fleas and ticks. All canines over the age of 6 months have been tested for heartworm. All canines are put on heartworm prevention as soon as possible - this means dogs as soon as they are tested negative. Puppies are put on prevention immediately. All felines, regardless of age, have been tested for Feline Leukemia/FIV. Each animal receives a health check by a licensed veterinarian prior to adoption. Anything else found will be treated by our organization prior to adoption. July 5, 2024, 5:16 pm
