Description:

11-1-10. The perfect home for Nova would be the family who has an active lifestyle. She enjoys playing with children, other dogs, as well as going for a jog or "power" walking. She has enough energy to do both as she likes to stay busy. Nova also likes to ride in the car and sleep in your lap while watching movies.

10-4-10. Nova went to spend time with a family on a trial basis due to the potential for children's allergies. Unfortunately the children did develop allergies and Nova had to be returned to her foster. The folks who had her  have 3 children ages 3.5 - 10 yrs. They reported Nova behaved extremely well with the children, wanting to sleep outside their doors in the hallway. She didn't chew their toys (chewed on her own), played nicely with the ball, loves to tug on a "tug" toy, went on walks nicely (even tho' she rather chase the squirrels), didn't complain about "crate" time. These nice people continued Nova's training, working on "down" and "stay" with voice and hand signals.(Nova also will sit, shake, sit up, and catch). Nova is a nice young dog with many years to give, even tho' she might get into the trash if left alone in the house too long!

Nova is brand new but she is a special girl. The shelter said she was the best behaved girl there and they were right !  Nova has the slim tall build of a greyhound type of dog , she is 44 pounds, very alert , friendly, quiet , and good with other dogs . She is young only about a year old and is well mannered , When you meet her you will find out how special she is .

Last Day Dog Rescue now microchips all animals before adoption. Microchips are implanted between the animals shoulder blades and are a permanent form of identification. The microchips are registered to Last Day Dog Rescue with the adopter's info added once adopted. If the animal is ever lost and slips his/her collar/tags the microchip allows the finder to know who to contact if scanned for a microchip. Animals MUST still have a collar with tags on at all times. Per our contract, we take all our animals back if for any reason you can't keep your adopted animal.

Please understand the statements about this animal are based upon the foster home's evaluation of the animal. The animal might behave differently (negatively or positively) in your home. While the animal might be good with the current foster’s dogs, cats, children, etc., it may not be with your animal(s) or children. The animal may be housebroken or litter trained in the home of the foster but may relapse in your home. The animal is represented to the public as it performs in the foster home and any statements made regarding the animal are conditional to that foster home setting. Please understand that statements made regarding this animal are simply overviews and are not guaranteed.

The Petfinder.com system requires that we choose a predominant breed or breed mix for our animals. Visual breed identification in animals is unreliable so for most of the animals we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each animal as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our animals based on personality, not by breed label.

Thank you for looking through our list of animals needing forever homes and choosing rescue first. We appreciate you stopping by.
