About Nova

Meet Nova, a delightful 1.5-year-old Yorkshire Terrier currently in need of a foster home in Northern NJ while she recovers from her spay. Weighing in at just 9 lbs, Nova has already had a litter and we’re eager to find her a safe place before that happens again. This cheerful pup is very friendly with people but may do best as the only dog in her new home, especially if there’s any friction with the resident female dog. We’re still assessing her situation, but one thing is clear: Nova needs a caring environment where she can thrive. Click apply to start the adoption process.
