History: These precious puppies are Nova’s babies, born after their mom was found outside in Manitoba during freezing temperatures. Thanks to Nova’s strength—and rescue stepping in at just the right time—her puppies were able to arrive safely and are now getting the warm, loving start they deserve.

Born on January 8, 2026, these pups are growing up in care where they’re learning what it means to be safe, warm, and loved. They are still young and will benefit greatly from continued socialization, gentle handling, and positive experiences as they grow into confident, well-rounded dogs.

Like all puppies, they’ll need adopters who are ready for the time, patience, and commitment that comes with raising a dog from the beginning—training, routines, and lots of love included. In return, they’ll offer a lifetime of companionship and the chance to watch a little life you helped save grow and thrive.

If you’re looking to add a puppy to your family and want to be part of a true rescue success story, one of Nova’s puppies may be the perfect match.

The husky breed is renowned for its striking appearance, characterized by piercing eyes and a thick double coat. These medium sized, energetic dogs are known for their friendly and outgoing personalities, making them wonderful companions for active families. Originally bred for sledding and endurance in cold climates, huskies are intelligent and independent, often displaying a strong prey drive. Proper training and regular exercise are crucial to keep these playful and social animals happy and well adjusted.
