🐾BEHAVIOR NOTES:
Nova shows many sweet, social behaviors with people. She often has a soft facial expression, wiggly body, wagging tail and soft eyes. She has taken treats gently, approached the kennel door with 'tappy feet,' and has been easily leashed on multiple occasions.
Sometimes Nova can become vocal in her kennel, pull hard on leash, try to bolt through the kennel door and react toward other dogs passing nearby.
