NOVA - GERMAN SHEPHERD DOG (MEDIUM COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog (medium coat). #A5708102 Meet Nova , a dignified 9‑year‑old German Shepherd mix lady with a satiny onyx coat and just a whisper of caramel on her forelegs. Her soulful brown eyes tell a story of resilience: she may have had a rough past, but behind her quiet reserve is a soft, loving spirit just waiting to bloom. Though she’s a bit shy at first, Nova warms up quickly and reveals a sweet, gooey core. A smart cookie who knows “sit” and “down,” she’s leash‑savvy and clearly knows she was rescued - her gratitude shines in every gesture. Nova would thrive as the queen of her castle, ideally as a solo dog in a calm, pampering home where she gets all the love, cuddles, and TLC she deserves. If you’re looking to give a gentle soul her forever fresh start, Nova just might be your heart’s perfect match. -9 year old black German Shepherd mix -45 pound female - not spayed yet due to her poor body condition, but the shelter can likely help with this! -came to the Baldwin Park Animal Care Center on 6/21/25 as a stray -satiny onyx coat with the faintest hint of caramel on her front legs, and the most soulful brown eyes you’ve ever seen! -has clearly had a rough time in her past life, but maintains a quiet dignity and soft sweetness that reveal her tender but resilient loving spirit -can be a bit reserved when she first meets you, but warms up quickly and shows off her ooey-gooey core -appears to have been a backyard dog, so really deserves a fresh start indoors where she can be pampered and comfortable for the rest of her years -appears avoidant, but will blossom into her true self with love and care -smart cookie that is good on leash and knows basic commands sit and down, and will definitely KNOW she was rescued - her gratitude and appreciation will very clearly come through -needs to be part of a family, with plenty of love, cuddles, and TLC - ideally as a solo dog, so she can be queen of the household NOVA’S VIDEO: youtube/shorts/ekSfnruPuS0 For more information, contact volunteer Lor at lorunitedhopeforanimals ------- United Hope for Animals (UHA) is a volunteer group and does not have a facility for animals.
