He shows no aggression towards food, people, or other dogs. He probably would not be good with cats.

Approximate D.O.B. 6/30/15. NOVA is very friendly and loves her foster brothers and sisters. Nova is house trained and crate trained. She is very energetic and loves to play. She is very smart and learns VERY quickly! She is very loving and has a great disposition. She loves to go for walks and she rides great in the car. She is pretty good with other dogs her size, but would not be good with small dogs or cats because she tends to play rough. She is a fun, spunky girl that, with a little more training, will become a great and loving part of any family. She is spayed, current on shots, heartworm negative and microchipped.

Story
Shiloh was rescued from a local shelter. She was extremely shy when we pulled her from the shelter and still can be shy when meeting new people or doing new things. She is most comfortable when she knows her surroundings. She is good with calmer, quieter kids and other dogs. She does not tolerate cats. Shiloh loves to cuddle and she's a great kisser! She will do best in a quiet structured environment. Since she doesn't like change, she never has tried to run away! A great dog for someone that works at home and is a couch potato!
