About Nova

Meet Nova, your loyal shadow with a playful spark. This almost 2-year-old Shepsky (German Shepherd/Husky mix) has a heart as big as her paws, and she still hasn’t quite figured out how big those paws really are yet. Once she settles in with proper care, she’ll likely be around 75 lbs of love, loyalty, and a splash of goofiness. Nova is the perfect companion. She's always ready for a run or a play session with her dog friends, but when the energy winds down, she prefers to relax quietly by your side, just keeping you company. She’s dog friendly, kid friendly, and cat friendly. Nova also knows basic commands—she’s a smart girl and a bit of a professional counter inspector, so be warned! Now, about Nova’s special superpower: she is diabetic, which requires insulin and a consistent feeding routine. However, this doesn’t slow her down. She handles it like a champ, and all she needs is a committed human to help keep her on track. Her ideal home is one where someone is responsible and routine-oriented, ready to manage her diabetic care or willing to learn. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will truly bond with you, Nova is the one. Nova is not just a dog; she’s a furry friend who will follow you from room to room, lay at your feet, and gaze at you like you’re her whole world. Yes, she may need a little extra care, but she’ll give you everything in return. Could you be the one to see her worth beyond her diagnosis and love her for life?
