About Nova

Meet Nova Nova is a beautiful 4-year-old girl who is as loving and loyal as they come! She adores people of all ages and has plenty of energy to share. Nova is happiest when she has room to run and play, making her a great fit for a home with a yard or plenty of outdoor space. What she loves: Hugs, kisses, and lots of affection Truck or SUV rides (she's the best road trip buddy!) Playtime and open spaces Visits to off-leash parks where she can stretch her legs ⚡ Her personality: She's strong, full of life, and very smart. Leash manners are a work in progress—she can be impatient and pull, so she'll need an adopter ready to continue her training. She does well with male dogs but can sometimes be picky with females. Things to know: Indoor/outdoor lifestyle Can be sensitive to loud noises and sometimes shuts down when anxious Prefers not to walk at night or in the dark Currently about 7 lbs overweight (vet says she's otherwise fit and strong!) Best suited for a home without lots of stairs, since apartment living hasn't been ideal for her Nova is spayed, microchipped, up to date on vaccines (including rabies and parvo), and comes with her most recent vet paperwork. This sweet, beautiful girl is ready for her perfect match—a loving family with space for her to run, patience for her quirks, and plenty of hugs and kisses to give. ❤️ If you're interested in meeting Nova, please email adoption@columbiahumane.org .
