Story
✨ Meet Nova ✨ Nova is a beautiful 2–3 year old female who came to us straight off the streets of Visalia. When she first arrived, she was completely shut down—scared, unsure, and clearly used to having to fend for herself. With time, patience, and love, Nova has already come such a long way. She’s still a bit timid at first, but once she knows you’re safe, her sweet and loving personality shines through. She truly just needs someone willing to go slow and let her build trust at her own pace. 🐾 About Nova: • Crate trained • Walks well on leash • Still working on house training • Good with other dogs • Does well with our outdoor cats • Best suited for a home with no young children, as new things can make her nervous Nova doesn’t want to fight anymore. She’s ready for a calm, patient home where she can finally feel safe and loved. With the right person, she is going to be an incredibly loyal and gentle companion. If you feel like you might be the one to give Nova the time, patience, and love she deserves, we would love for you to meet her. 📧 Email: pawsforjuliarescue@gmail.com 📱 Text: (209) 447-7666 Let’s help Nova find her forever 💕

Story
K9BFF has 5 female puppies that were born in a SoCal animal shelter on May 2nd; and we got them when they were 2 days old (I listed 3 of them in this bio because they look alike, but they will be adopted separately). Three pups are white, one is cream, and one is beige. They will be available for adoption on June 27. Momma is listed under Rosey and has been a wonderful mom to all 5 of her babies; we don't know who the dad is but we suspect he is a small dog like Rosey. We're estimating they will weigh approximately 15-18 pounds when fully grown. They are healthy and happy little girls, very sweet with calm temperaments, and they love to be held. They are adorable, and we just can't pick a favorite! All 5 are great! If you're thinking about adopting a puppy, please keep in mind that puppies get under-foot and can trip seniors or accidentally get stepped on. And, just like a human baby, they need constant supervision. These little girls are still very fragile, so inexperienced animal handlers or rough unaware kids could hurt them. And please make sure you have the ability and the time to be home with her and train her. Adopting a dog is a lifetime commitment for the life of the dog, and these small dogs can live 15-20 years. We want to place pups in forever homes. If you are interested in meeting and possibly adopting a puppy, the first step is to submit an adoption application.

Good with dogs,
Story
We rescued Rosey from a SoCal shelter two days after giving birth to 5 female pups. Rosey is white and has straight Maltese type long hair, and we're guessing she's about 3-4 years old. She weighs 15 pounds now, but once all the pups are fully weaned she should fill out to about 18 pounds to be healthy. When she arrived, she was scared, timid and wanting to be held, and she quickly bonded with her foster mom and the other household members. She greets strangers first with a bark, then a sniff, then she calms down. She is very thin, her hair is sparse, which may be due to malnourishment prior to coming into rescue. She's been eating lots of good and healthy food in her foster home, but nursing moms have a hard time putting on weight no matter how much you feed them. The pups are eating food now, but they love that closeness that nursing provides, and Rosey still allows it. She's a great mom and took very good care of her pups. Pups and mom will be available for adoption after June 27. Rosey will make someone a great, sweet and affectionate companion. Like all dogs who go into a new environment, you will need to potty train her so she will learn your expectations, as well as where and when to go. Also, walking on leash is new to her, but with some patience and encouragement she will learn to love her walks. Rosey is timid at first and will need some help with confidence building, lots of pets, and be able to be near you a lot at first until she gets used to her new environment and a new routine is established. Routine is key to training her. She finds comfort in knowing what to expect and routine creates this. If you are interested in this sweet girl, please go to our website www.k9bestfriendsforever.com and click on 'Adopt' to fill out an application. After you've submitted your application, we will be more than happy to talk with you and answer any questions you may have. We want this to be a good match for both you and Rosey, and we aim to choose the very best situation for her as rescue pets have no say-so in where they go. Their happiness and success in their new forever home is our highest goal.
