Nova

Meet Nova! A young, beautiful 9 month old liver and roan GSP.

Nova and her sister were surrendered to us when their owner realized they did not have the space or energy for such active young dogs such as a German Shorthaired Pointer. Nova is still very much all puppy. She has soft floppy puppy ears and is as playful as any young GSP. She is a very intelligent dog, and can figure out how to get out of a chain link fence (she will climb it and come to you to show you what she’s done). She can figure out dog puzzles and latches on crates. Again, just a very smart girl that will need someone to continue mental and physical stimulation along with basic obedience. She is very social with other dogs and enjoys playing with well socialized dogs.

The Basics:

Gender: Female

Age: 9 months

Dogs: Playful

Cats: Cat sharp

Kids: Unknown but quite an active young dog

What the Volunteers are saying:

Would do very well in agility training.  Can figure out dog puzzles and latches.

Plays well with other dogs in a field setting.

Young, strong and did very well on a walk.

She loves food and will sit for a treat. She only knows sit so far, but will learn quickly with training.

The Good Stuff:

Enjoys well socialized other dogs.

Strong but manageable on a leash.

Very energetic and easily trained.

The Challenges:

Exercise Requirements: 30 to 45 minutes twice a day (or more).
