Story

Meet Nova, a stunning 1-year-old black Shepherd mix that weighs 64 pounds. Nova truly shines in person. She is shepherd through and through—smart, athletic, and full of drive—with a medium to high energy level that keeps her ready for the next adventure. Nova is very strong on leash and will need a confident, experienced handler; prior shepherd experience is preferred. With consistency and guidance, she would greatly benefit from general obedience training to help her channel her energy and intelligence.Nova will thrive with an active family who enjoys walks, runs, and hikes and is excited to include her as a daily companion. Her compatibility with other dogs, cats, or children is currently unknown, so adopters should be prepared to help her settle in at her own pace. If you have another dog, you will need to schedule a meet and greet to make sure everyone gets along. Nova is available through our foster-to-adopt program, which allows you to welcome her into your home while she completes routine vetting, including spay, vaccinations, microchipping, and heartworm testing.If you’re ready to meet this beautiful, energetic girl, email dogadoptions@parmashelter.org and submit a dog adoption application online for Nova. Nova’s adoption fee is $160.

Story

Hello Im Star a four-year-old German Shepherd. I’m AKC, potty trained and a very smart girl. We have had her for a while trying to just wait it out to see if anything changes with her, but she has become attached to just my husband and not the rest of the family. I do not recommend her with Kids. Or other animals. We hate to do this but we’ve had her since August 2025 as we got her from a family that lied about her profile and she still has not intertwined with the kids and myself. She is AKC and has papers. She is potty trained, and knows a lot of tricks. A really good dog just would not recommend with a full family.
