Nova is a sweet quirky girl. She does love people and follows her foster Mom everywhere. She does good with the other dogs in her foster home but can get protective of high value treats.  In addition, when Nova gets excited or wound up she can get nippy, at people and dogs.  Nova loves treats, belly rubs, and going on walks. She is kennel trained and for the most part potty trained. She does mark in the house at times. Nova seems to have a bit of anxiety and can take time to warm up and trust people. When we first got her she would try to bite when startled or someone tried to pick her up.  She has gotten better but will still try to bite at times if feels anxious. She will need a family that gives her the love, patience, and time she needs to settle in on her own terms. Once she is given that she will reward you with Pug cuddles and kisses. 

Nova’s  minimum adoption donation is $350.
