About Nova

Nova came to us in 2024. She's a wonderful dog who has yet to find a home. She does need to be an only pet, but she loves people and is fine with children 7+ years old. If you live in CT and love huskies, especially if you have breed experience, please apply to foster or adopt. To start the process please fill out an application: https://www.allaboutthedogsrescue.org/get-involved Nova is about 5 years old. Her previous owner rescued her from a high kill shelter in CA. When she got to CT, it turned out she had been pregnant! Her family found homes for all the puppies but planned on keeping Nova. Situations change, however. There were other animals in the home and Nova was reactive to them. Then she developed what was originally diagnosed as a vaginal prolapse. She saw a vet and had purse string sutures put in. We were asked if we could back Nova and we agreed. Her owner agreed to continue to foster until we found placement for her, and has been doing that. When the sutures were removed, shortly after Nova came to us, they had not worked and the same issue recurred. That necessitated a visit to an er vet where the sutures were put in again. She then saw one of our primary vets who diagnosed hyperplasia rather than prolapse. Hyperplasia is hormone-driven and a subsequent spay was thankfully curative. The cost of medical care paid by the rescue for Nova exceeds $2,000. She's a great dog, and we were happy to provide the care she needed! NOW our job is to find her a home. She's house trained. She does well with all humans. She walks well on a leash and knows all her basics. And she's certainly had thorough medical care. She would love a fenced yard where she can run around and play, but she isn't a super high energy dog. Nova will make a great family member! We will give preference to families with breed experience.
