About Novak

Novak is a three-year-old, 12-pound Maltese mix with a short, apricot-tinted coat. Her previous family shared that, while she's not currently house trained in the shelter, she used to reliably hold it until she could go outside, which is promising for future training. Novak lived with other dogs before and, with a slow intro, could probably live with another—she just likes to take her time getting comfortable. No history around cats, but she's not ruled it out with careful introductions either. Because she tends to be more selective and sensitive, Novak will do best in an adult-only home, where routines are predictable and things don’t get chaotic.

    Generally, Maltese mixes like Novak are best for adult-only homes or families with older, respectful children. She’s specifically looking for a home without young kids.
