Nova 21062

My story

A foster-to-adopt option is available for me, giving us the chance to get to know each other before making it official! Nova’s journey has been quite an adventure—all the way from the beaches of Puerto Rico to here! This 5-year-old black Lab/Staffy mix is as radiant as her name suggests. She was once adopted and deeply loved but returned to us when her owner had to move and couldn’t take her along. Nova is housetrained, food-motivated, and full of zest for life. She’s incredibly affectionate and thrives in an active lifestyle—she especially loves going on daily jogs! She’s been working with a trainer to build her leash manners, recall, and commands, and she’s eager to keep learning (especially when treats are involved). Nova enjoys playtime with dogs her size who can match her energy and would love a fenced-in yard where she can safely zoom around and chase her favorite backyard “lizards.” Because of her prey drive, Nova should not live with cats, and she would do best in an adult-only home where she can enjoy a calm, predictable environment with plenty of one-on-one attention. One of her favorite things to do with volunteers is relax during tummy rub time—she’ll happily soak up the attention with a big smile. Nova has been waiting far too long for her second chance. She’s loyal, loving, and ready to find the active, committed family she truly belongs with. Could that be you? Nova weighs 45lbs. and her estimated birth date 01/01/2021). Nova has been spayed, is up to date on all vaccinations & preventatives, and is microchipped. Nova's adoption fee is $85.
