Meet N O V A !!!

We adopted her today and we are so in love.

Nova and her 6 siblings were rescued with their mum from a horrible house. They were starving, sick and flea infested but thanks to the care of Happy Tails Animal Rescue, they are all doing so well and each of them will be placed with new families in the coming weeks.

I found her on a pet rescue website late last night and put in an enquiry without even thinking about it. Then I did a 5.5 hour round trip and spent $550 for the adoption (to cover the vet bills and treatment needed to get her back to good health) and another $370 at the pet store for a new bed, collar, harness, leash, brush, food, treats and plenty of toys.

My partner and I have wanted to adopt a dog but a couple of times we started the ball rolling it all fell through for various reasons. He had no idea I enquired about her until I messaged him while he was at work today saying I was going to do a meet and greet. I told him if the foster mum approved us for adoption I wouldn’t be able to bring her home until after she is desexed and has had her final vaccinations. Which was true. But because I drive such a long way to meet her, I was able to take her home today and surprise my partner when he got home from work. 😍🙊 I have fallen so much more in love with him seeing him with our fur baby.

This is our first family photo together.

Apparently our little super Nova can’t sit still long enough to get her photo taken 😂

I cannot wait for Nova to watch over our babies when we are lucky enough to have them 🤞🏻🙌🏻✨✨✨✨
