Meet Mama Nova Sky, the sweet mama behind the "Written in the Stars" litter! 🌟

After devoting herself to raising her four puppies with endless love and care, this deserving girl is officially retired from motherhood. Now, she’s ready to step into the spotlight and become the center of someone’s universe.

Nova Sky is currently on a mission to put on a few post-puppy pounds—a job she takes very seriously, thanks to her love of food and treats! She is easygoing, polite, and crate-trained.

She coexists peacefully with laid-back resident dogs and pays no attention to cats.

If you're looking for a gentle, affectionate companion to spoil endlessly, Nova Sky is ready to light up your life. ✨

Judy is officially ready for her second chance — and she’s hoping her forever family is out there! 🏡❤️

You might recognize this sweet girl because she’s the proud mama of our Friends litter! Her puppies have all found wonderful homes, and now it’s Judy’s turn to be the one getting spoiled. 🥰

At 2.5 years old, Judy is the perfect mix of sweet, affectionate, and fun. She LOVES going for walks, handing out kisses, and hanging out with her favorite people. She’s also potty trained, kennel trained, and a quiet little sleeper who settles right into her crate at night. ⭐

And there’s even more good news… Judy has officially finished her heartworm treatment! 🎉

Because she had to take it easy during treatment, Judy put on some extra weight while she was on strict activity restrictions. Now she’s ready to get moving again! Her future family will need to help her safely get back to a healthy weight with regular walks, appropriate exercise, and plenty of encouragement (and we're pretty sure Judy won’t complain about the extra attention 😉).

Judy is also a total sweetheart with other dogs. She has a gentle, nurturing personality and would love having a canine sibling, but she’s perfectly happy being your one-and-only pup, too! 🐶❤️

Judy is ready. Her puppies got their happily ever after… now it’s her turn. 🥹❤️

She is also available for a foster-to-adopt home where she can settle in, get back to her active self, and finally experience what it’s like to be someone’s forever girl.

Could you be Judy’s second chance?
