Nova

Nova – Female in Texas

Cane Corso | Crate Trained | Kid Safe 15+ | Large Dog Safe 

On May 4, 2022, heartbreaking news reached us about the sudden passing of a valued rescuer and friend of CCR in his home. This dedicated rescuer was known for taking in sick and elderly dogs with slim chances of adoption and rehoming various mastiffs with care. Upon receiving the news, we discovered that 34 dogs had been left without food or water on the property since his passing, prompting immediate action from CCR and volunteers. Many of these dogs were severely dehydrated and malnourished due to the prolonged neglect.

Among the dogs found was Nova, a beautiful Cane Corso. Although her background was initially unknown, through bits of information gathered, her story started to unfold. Nova was rescued from a Texas shelter in July 2019, estimated to be around 3 years old then, making her approximately 6 years old now. Initially wary in her crate, Nova’s demeanor has improved as she has grown familiar with the caring volunteers attending to the dogs. She now eagerly goes for walks, enjoys attention, and displays a happy disposition. While still getting to know her, we believe Nova would thrive in the company of large male dogs or as an only dog. Crate trained and likely housebroken, Nova may require some time to adjust to a new routine. She is in good health with no known issues and is seeking a loving foster or adoptive home where she can receive the care and affection she deserves for the rest of her life.
