Nova

Border Collie Catahoula Leopard Dog

Cincinnati, OH
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Not good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Nova is a sweetheart. I got him as a tiny puppy. Unfortunately he came to us with resource guarding issues, primarily with food and space (especially when he is laying down). He still struggles with these issues, just not quite as bad. After my eldest dog (the alpha) passed away, my middle dog fell into a bad deep depression. During this time, Nova began to attack my middle dog. This was a surprise as they used to play and cuddle 24/7. I was told this just happens sometimes when a younger dog will attack a sick older dog to "claim alpha". He has never bitten another dog, although we were very careful to not get him too close to other dogs. I would say no other dogs would be the best for him. We have never had him around any other animals. Hes great with people and older kids. He is a bit uneasy with young kids. We have a young child and I am just very nervous due to his history and he just isnt getting the life he deserves anymore. He is a cuddle bug lover. He deserves the BEST home!

WE ARE A TX-BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN TX AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED UPON ADOPTION. Please fill out an adoption application at haydudeequine.org ☁️🐶 Meet Sky — Tiny Pup, Big Wiggles, Endless Joy 🐶☁️ Sky is a 3-month-old baby girl (DOB: 11/5/25) with a whole lot of personality packed into one adorable puppy body. Her mom is a Border Collie/Heeler mix (best guess), so you can expect a smart, active girl who’s destined to be the pawfect medium size — big enough for all your adventures and just the right size to still fit perfectly on the couch when the day is done. Sky is the definition of a classic puppy: full of zoomies, curiosity, and hilarious puppy shenanigans. She brings the butt wiggles, the puppy kisses, and the kind of laugh-out-loud moments that make the occasional chewed shoelace totally worth it. Life is her playground, and everything is new, exciting, and possibly a toy. 🐾 Sky’s Puppy Resume: ☁️ 3 months old and growing fast ☁️ Expected medium size when full grown ☁️ Sweet, playful, and full of wiggles ☁️ With proper socialization, should do great with dogs, kids and even cats ☁️ Smart and eager to learn ☁️ Comes fully equipped with tiny shark teeth and ninja nails (standard puppy package 😄) Sky is looking for a family ready to embrace all the joys of puppyhood — the training, the laughs, the snuggles, and the memories you’ll talk about for years to come. She promises to repay you in loyalty, love, and an endless supply of tail wags. 🌈 If you’re ready for adventure, giggles, and a puppy who will grow right alongside your life — Sky is ready to climb straight into your heart and home. ✨ Apply today at haydudeequine.org and let Sky brighten your world! 🐾💙

Female, Young

Good with dogs, Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Space is a 9 month old medium size dog. She loves other dogs and has done well with cats. Space needs a special adopter that will give her time to realize people aren’t so scary. She has made a TON of progress at her foster home but is still very timid at times. She gets SO excited to see you after work but still only wants to be pet on her own terms. She will do best in a home with no children, another dog to help build her confidence, and her own yard, as she is not leash trained. She is very fearful of the leash, leading us to believe she may have had a traumatic experience involving a leash before coming to HART. This dog absolutely loves to be comfy. All she wants is a comfortable bed or to curl up by your feet on the couch. If you’re looking for a playmate for your dog that does not beg for constant attention or a friend to keep your dog busy while you’re at work, Space could be a great choice for you. If interested in meeting Space please fill out an application at www.rescueahart.org!
