Meet Nova, our 90-pound cuddle machine with a heart as big as her personality! Rescued from the roof of a building in the Bronx, this special girl has shown incredible resilience and love. True to her breed, Nova is intelligent, loyal, eager to please, loving, and has a strong personality. She’s fully housebroken, snores like a trucker, and is missing a few teeth on the side of her mouth, so her tongue sticks out all day. (It's very charming). Nova gets along with docile male dogs her size, but would also be happy as an only pet. She's a strong girl and still pulls a little on-leash, but isn't reactive to dogs or people. Consistency and some basic training will go a long way with Nova; she's a smart girl and picks up on things quickly. If you're looking for a one-of-a-kind companion, apply today to bring Nova home. All dogs will be altered, microchipped, and receive age-appropriate vaccines prior to adoption. Please note that the listed location for this dog may not be accurate due to technical limitations of this database and we have transportation options available within 6 hours of NYC (so don't let location hold you back)!

🧠 Temperament
True to her breed, Nova is intelligent, loyal, eager to please, loving, and has a strong personality. Mixed-breed dogs pull traits from several lines, which often means fewer breed-linked health problems and a temperament best judged by meeting the dog.
🎾 Exercise
Depends on the individual. A daily walk plus play is the baseline; ask the foster how the dog behaves after a quiet day.
✂️ Grooming
Varies with coat type. Short coats need little; longer or double coats need regular brushing.
