Story
Nova is not just a name; but a testament to her resilience as the shining star of St. Francis! This 2-year-old female pit bull mix arrived at our shelter in August, a survivor of severe neglect. Despite her challenging past, Nova has emerged stronger, healthier, and ready to light up a new home with her playful energy.If you're a fan of fetch, Nova is the perfect playmate. Watching her chase after a ball with pure delight is not only heartwarming but also a reminder of the transformative power of love and care.This charming girl has mastered the art of taking treats with gentle precision. Nova's loving personality shines through in every interaction, making her not just a pet but a cherished family member waiting to be discovered.Nova is potty-trained, though we always remind those who adopt dogs who have spent time in shelters or may have dealt with neglect, that they may need a refresher course as shelter life is very different as they adjust to a new home and schedule.Nova has shown compatibility with dogs of similar size during her time at the shelter, however we always recommend a meet and greet as well as a home visit for potential adopters who already have other pets in the home. Each furry friend has their own unique personality, and we want to ensure a harmonious home for all.As you consider welcoming Nova into your home, remember that you're not just adopting a dog; you're providing a second chance for a beautiful soul who has triumphed over adversity.Please visit: Https://www.stfrancis-care.org/adopt for adoption information including the adoption application

Story
Meet Cora. She was brought in as a stray with an injured leg.Sadly her owner never came forward to claim this sweet girl.Cora seems to prefer female humans as she is often fearful of men.She likes to play with other dogs but she can be overwhelming to some.We believe this smart girl will be easily house trained if kept on a schedule as she already keeps a clean kennel during the day.Leash walking is a work in progress but she listens well so with time and patience she will learn this and so much more.We are going to recommend older children as Cora doesn't realize her size and could accidentally knock a small child over.Please complete an application.Cora is waiting.Please visit: Https://www.stfrancis-care.org/adopt for adoption information including the adoption application
