Meet adoptable deaf 5.5 month old (DOB 3/28/25) Nova who is looking for a loving forever home with someone who will cherish her, make daily positive reinforcement training/socialization/enrichment a priority and always keep her safe.
From her shelter advocate: **Meet Nova – A Special Soul with So Much Love to Give!**
Nova is a beautiful, brave, and incredibly sweet shepherd mix puppy with a heart as big as her ears! At just 5 months old, she’s already proven herself to be a resilient little warrior. Born deaf and partially blind, Nova navigates the world with her other senses—and a whole lot of curiosity and courage.
Despite her challenges, Nova is full of joy, tail wags, and playful energy. She loves gentle snuggles, following her humans around the house, and playing with her favorite toys. Her unique way of experiencing the world doesn’t hold her back—it just makes her extra special.
Nova is learning hand signals and responds well to touch-based communication and routines. She’ll thrive in a calm, patient home with people who are committed to helping her grow into the confident, loving companion she’s meant to be. She’d do best with a secure yard and possibly a confident resident dog who can help guide her.
She’s crate trained, working on house training, and is eager to keep learning with the right guidance. Nova may have some extra needs, but what she gives back in love and loyalty is beyond measure.
Are you ready to open your heart to a pup who will change your life in the most beautiful way? Nova is ready to meet you.
