In the shelter’s words

Meet Nova This gorgeous 4-year-old, 50-lb. German Shepherd mix is all about enjoying life with her favorite humans. Nova is an affectionate girl who loves being wherever her people are. She loves to curl up right beside you and, yes, sometimes on top of you. When her foster mom works from home, she’s happy to snooze quietly in her bed. As long as she can be nearby, she’s content! She’s generally calm and easygoing indoors, but she’s just as happy to head outside for an adventure. Nova walks beautifully on leash, enjoys neighborhood walks, and absolutely loves hiking. On weekends, she can often be found exploring local trails with her foster mom and canine foster siblings. When it comes to other dogs, Nova prefers a more laid-back crowd. She would be fine as an only-dog or with calm canine companions. She isn’t particularly interested in playing with other dogs. She’d much rather play with people and show off her toy-catching skills! Nova is housebroken, crate-trained, cat-safe, and friendly with new people. She also attends professional training at DiversityK9 and knows her basic commands. Nova needs a home with older children or adults only. She can take a little time to truly settle into a new environment, but once she feels comfortable, she becomes a loving, funny, and incredibly loyal companion. If you’re looking for a dog who can spend Saturday morning hiking a trail, keep an eye on the yard, and spend Saturday night curled up next to you, Nova might be your girl. Nova can’t wait to meet her forever family. Complete an adoption application today!
