Why I need a new home

Human health issues (e.g. allergies, sickness)

My story

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


Nova had had a hard life with being moved around A LOT!
He is wonderful with kids and other animals, Nova will even let our cats beat him up all he wants to do is play & love.
Nova has been with us about 7 months because of my wife's increase in seizures it's becoming where its too much to take him for walks and the things a good dog owner can do for him.

This guy just wants to be your best friend. His commands are sit, Lay Down, Paw, Go Back & Outside. He loves hanging out in the snow when he can and loves to join the family anytime we are outside.

I have a non verbal down syndrome son who nova gets along with greatly they are honestly best friends and i feel horrible t have to make this choice. It's just too much too handle anymore with other medial issues going on.

Help find this guy forever home and some BEST Friends!!
