About Nova

Sweet Nova is a loving 5-year-old, 26.4kg girl looking for her forever family! She's great with people and children, and while she generally does well with other dogs, she can be a bit possessive of her belongings and would thrive as the only pet in the home. Nova adores car rides and being by her people's side.

Ideal Home

Nova would do best in a home where she can be the sole focus of attention. She needs a securely fenced yard, as she's a talented escape artist when left to her own devices.

Ongoing Health

No specific health concerns are noted for Nova.

Training & Support

While Nova is a gem, she would benefit from continued guidance regarding her "things" to ensure she remains the only pet.

Application Details:

Applications to adopt Nova start by contacting us through Wags.

Transportation

Nova is currently located at the BC SPCA Alberni-Clayoquot Branch in Port Alberni, BC. Transportation may be available to other Wags locations.
