Meet Nova! Nova is a young German Shepherd / Belgian Malinois mix who was recently found as a stray. She is not microchipped, and unfortunately, her finder is is not able to hold her long and will be forced to take her to the shelter. At just about 7 months old, Nova is still very much a puppy—full of potential, curiosity, and sweetness. She is gentle with people, friendly with other dogs, and has a happy, easygoing temperament that makes her a joy to be around. Nova is the kind of young dog who just wants connection. She’s affectionate, social, and eager to be part of a home where she can finally feel safe and loved. With her breed mix, she will thrive with structure, guidance, and someone committed to helping her grow into the amazing dog she’s clearly meant to be. We are urgently hoping to keep Nova out of the shelter system and into a home or rescue placement before time runs out. If you can help Nova in any way—adopt or rescue—please reach out immediately.
