My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Nova – A Gentle Soul Ready to Blossom in Her Forever Home

Nova is a beautifully sweet and gentle girl with a soft disposition that instantly captures hearts. She arrived at the Ranch just under a year old, surrendered alongside her sister. Having had very little human socialization before coming to us, Nova was understandably timid and scared at first. But with patience, love, and care, she quickly revealed her true self—a tender, affectionate, and deeply loving dog who simply longs for a family to call her own.

Nova thrives on human connection and truly flourishes when she feels safe and secure. She is looking for a patient, understanding person who can provide the steady guidance and gentle care she needs to build confidence and trust. Whether it’s snuggling close during quiet evenings or taking slow, peaceful walks together, Nova treasures every moment spent bonding with her people.

A social and friendly girl, Nova has a wonderful history with other dogs. She was a proud member of a canicross team, where she enjoyed running alongside two to three other canine companions at a time. Her love for activity combined with her calm demeanor makes her a wonderfully balanced dog who thrives both on the trail and in the comfort of home.

Nova has also benefited from obedience training, showing eagerness and intelligence as she learns new commands. She’s ready to continue growing and exploring with the right family by her side.

Her sister has since found a loving forever home, and now it’s Nova’s turn. This sweet girl is ready to bring joy, loyalty, and love to someone special who is ready to open their heart and home to her.

If you’re searching for a devoted companion who will patiently and lovingly walk beside you through life’s adventures—both big and small—Nova is waiting to meet you.

Call the Ranch today to come meet this gentle soul and discover the beautiful bond that awaits.

Additional adoption info

You will first need to stop by our rescue and meet our dogs! If interested in one of our dogs you will need to fill out an application. We also do a home visit if in the area, to make sure you have a secure and a dog-friendly environment. If out of the Siskiyou county area we can easily make other arrangements. Our adoption donation is $195.00. We have a reduced rate for seniors, the disabled, and veterans. Our "Senior for Senior" program offers a further discount and can help with the cost of dog ownership. The adoption fee for puppies who grew up at the Ranch (or in foster here) includes spay/neutering when old enough and is $295.00. All of our dogs are up to date on shots, heart worm tested and any medical issue are treated. Every dog that is going to a new home must be spayed or neutered before they leave Rescue Ranch.

More about this rescue

Rescue Ranch is a small no kill shelter. We have kennels for 22 dogs. We primarily take in dogs from city and county shelters in Siskiyou County before the dogs are out of time due to space limitations. We also make 3-4 trips a year to county shelters in central California to save smaller dogs that can overwhelm shelter resources in those counties. We started about 18 years ago with 40 acres far outside Yreka and were able to help many dogs in the county due to the efforts of the founders and many volunteers. In August of 2009 our new facility opened. We are now about 2 miles outside of town on 10 acres. We have been steadily growing through the efforts of the committed staff, volunteers, and volunteer board members. In 2012 we had 80 adoptions, 2013 we had 105 adoptions and in 2014 we had 167 adoptions. This year in 2020, we are projecting to place over 500 dogs into happy homes! We operate solely on the generous donations from the public and our wonderful volunteers. We have added boarding to our facility and all proceeds from the boarding fees are used to help with our expenses so we can help more dogs find their forever homes.
Our mission is to Rescue-Nurture-Rehome dogs into loving and safe forever homes---We do it for the dogs!
