Nova

About This Dog for Adoption

Nova's ideal home

Nova is a delightful 1 year old American Bulldog looking for a family with lots of love and energy. She is a friendly girl who is excited to meet new people and can sometimes show this by jumping up. She could join a home with children of Secondary School age who are confident around big bouncy dogs. Nova has previously shared a home with others dogs and could do so again providing they are comfortable with her play style as she can get overexcited when playing. We have no history of Nova living with cats but have not seen a high prey drive from her so she could potentially join a home with a dog savvy cat providing introductions are carefully managed. Nova is worried by being left currently and will need someone around the majority of the time with her initially, leaving hours will need to be gradually introduced at a pace she is comfortable with once settled. Nova would benefit from a garden or outside are to play in to burn off some energy.

Could you be Nova's perfect match?

Nova is a lovely girl who came into our care through no fault of her own. We have found her to be a friendly, excitable youngster who enjoys her walks and having cuddles. She can be a little worried around loud noises such as hairdryers and vacuum cleaners and may need reassurance to help learn they aren't as scary as they sound. Nova was housetrained previously and knows "sit" and "paw", she would benefit from learning some alternative behaviours to jumping up when excited and is keen to learn new things.
