About Nova

Hiya Friends! My name is Nova and I'm a sweet 4-6yr old female Shepherd mix gal. I was chained to a tree with no interaction and used for breeding. I had my last litter of puppies (all have been adopted) and now it's my turn! My foster mom estimates my age to be about 4-6yrs old, and because of my hard upbringing, I have a little more gray on my face. I enjoy taking walks, exploring in the backyard, playing with other large breed dogs, and resting with my foster mom. I'm house and kennel trained, even though I don't need to be in one! I would love to find a person/family who will take me on walks, tell me I'm the bestest girl in the world, and show me what a loving family really is. If you are looking for a resilient, loving, friendly, sweet, and loyal new companion - I'm your girl!
