Meet Novak

NOVAK NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!!!! Name: Novak Best Guess for Breed: Retriever mix - some lab in there! Best Guess for Age: 1.5 years as of September 2026 SEX: Male Approximate Weight: 44 lbs as of 8/3/26 Gets Along With: Other dogs! Has lived with kids. Currently Living at: DC area foster home Special adoption considerations: Dogs from Puerto Rico have a major transition to go through when they arrive and will need humans who are very committed to socialization. We think Novak would do best with either a resident dog or a family who can make sure he can go on walks regularly with other dogs, visit the dog park, or go to doggie daycare to learn the ropes. Novak is Looking For: Hi! I'm Novak. I'm looking for my forever family! I can't wait to explore by the side of my new family - long sniffy walks, romps in parks, all the adventures they can dream up - yes, please! Going to dog school would be great too, so I can show how super smart I am! Most of all, I want to be safe and loved and know where I belong. In exchange, I promise adoring gazes and happy tail wags and loyal companionship for all my days. What do you say? Do I get to go home with you? What My Foster Says About Me: Novak is energetic - he loves to zoom around the yard with his foster brother! He loves to chew sticks, chase balls and play tug!! After he plays and and has a good walk, he loves to snuggle and lean into you while he gets scratches! He absolutely loves treats and is very food motivated, which should make training easier! He will eat anything but is especially happy to have some peanut butter. He loves to be around people and get all the attention! He's very treat motivated, so he's easy to train. He sleeps in his crate through the night. He is really such a sweet boy and loves to be loved and get love! He will make a wonderful addition to any family! Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken. All of our dogs are working on their crate training.
