Nova is a big, sweet, gentle giant with a calm spirit and an easygoing nature. On walks, he’s about as stress-free as they come—he moves at a steady pace, enjoys sniffing around, and really just soaks in his surroundings. A daily stroll is all he needs to stay content, nothing too strenuous at this stage in life. While Nova’s back legs move like you’d expect from a senior dog, he’s still doing well for his age and is ready for plenty more meandering walks and lazy afternoons. He’s been friendly toward other dogs both in shelter playgroups and in his current foster home, where he lives with two other large dogs. Nova does keep to himself with other dogs for the most part, but he’s polite and easy to have around. With people, he’s reserved at first, slow to trust, but very affectionate once he bonds. You’ll find him leaning gently into you for attention when he’s comfortable. He’s looking for a steady, loving home where he can relax, enjoy his routines, and soak up the good life. Ready for a loyal but low-key companion? Nova might be just who you need. Start your journey together! Apply now.
