Nova is a smart cookie. She is an avid snuggler and aims to please. She is quiet as a mouse in her crate and when she is let out, runs straight to the door and goes potty in the grass soon after. 
She is extremely well rounded and gets along with dogs of all sizes, loves the children next door , and respects the space of her foster sister that doesn't like puppies. She is a model puppy especially when she gets enough exercise. She is not a calm lap dog that will lay around the house all day and would do best in a home with someone who will tire her out. She walks well on a leash. When she is tired, she loves to snuggle but is quite literally a ball of energy. She is very responsive and comes running when you whistle.
