UKIAH, CA., 7/14/26 — Looking for a loving, loyal companion who’s equal parts cuddle buddy and adventure partner? Then meet Nova, a beautiful 3-year-old Aussie/Shepherd mix with a heart as big as her personality! Nova loves people and is happiest when she’s spending time with her humans. At 48 pounds, she’s convinced she’s the perfect lap dog, and honestly, she might just convince you too! She already knows “sit,” has great indoor manners, and is a calm, mellow companion around the house. When it comes to other dogs, Nova prefers a proper introduction before making new friends, so a meet-and-greet with any potential canine siblings is recommended.
