About Nova ReneeMeet & Greet
Nova Renee
Dogs – Big dogs only, she likes her pals her own size
Cats – Looking for a feline-free home
Kids – Yes, and she's a fan
Nova Renee is a snuggler down to her bones. She wants to be on the couch with you, in the bed with you, leaned up against your side during the movie, close enough to basically count as part of the furniture. She's wonderful with kids, warms up to new people quickly, and has never met a stuffed animal she didn't immediately claim as her own.
For a young girl, Nova has wonderfully laid-back vibe. A gentle stroll and then straight back to the couch is her idea of a life well lived. She melts for treats, praise, and a soft, kind hand, and she gives that kindness right back as a devotion. You'll see it in her little smile.
Nova gets along great with big, easygoing dogs once they've had a proper, slow introduction, and she'd be just as delighted to reign as the one and only pampered pup in the house. Little dogs just aren't her crowd. She's a big-buddies kind of girl.
Somewhere out there is a couch with a Nova-shaped dent already forming in it. Whoever owns that couch is about to get the most loving cuddle partner ever!

Not Quite Ready To Adopt?
You can make an immeasurable impact by opening your home and your heart to an animal in need. Fostering is a great opportunity to introduce a pet into your home without making a lifelong commitment. Many of our foster humans end up adopting their fostered animals, but many also choose to just provide the temporary shelter and love our animals need to get through a trying time.
