Tova’s Progress Update!

Tova is making amazing strides! This sweet pup is doing great with kids, knows “sit,” and has solid recall. Potty training is going as expected—some days are great, and others are a little bumpy, but that’s all part of the process! As far as we know, he’s also doing wonderfully in his crate at night.

We’re so proud of how far he’s come! Keep cheering Tova on as he continues to grow and learn.

Interested in giving Tova a forever home? Reach out to us at Knotty Creek Animal Rescue!

Let’s work together to save lives, one puppy at a time. ❤️🐶

*These puppies are listed on the Dogs in Danger website. If we can raise the funds before their scheduled euthanasia date, they can be saved. Otherwise, we’ll have to wait until we raise enough funds to save others.*

We will make a post once a week until we raise the funds needed.

Tova playing with a couple of my girls today, he’s going to be a special pup for an every lucky family.

Tova had another big milestone today—he learned how to navigate stairs! 🐾 Watching him figure out how to go up and down is absolutely adorable. He’s growing up so fast! 💙

And to top it off, we had another night where he slept soundly through the night! 💤 We just make sure he has ample playtime before bed and a comfortable sleeping environment has helped him settle in nicely. Here’s to many more restful nights ahead! 🌙

03/11/2025

Tova surprised me last night with a peaceful sleep, no mess, and no fuss! 🌙 He’s definitely catching up on some much-needed rest. The little guy is so sweet and well-behaved!

And then there’s Aurora Jane, the “Momma” of every little one she meets. 💕 These two have already become the best of friends—Aurora’s such a great mentor for Tova, guiding him through his time here until he moves on to his foster family and forever home.

Side note Tova doesn’t enjoy salmon treats, he spits them out! - Photos of Tova and Aurora playing after breakfast.

Tova is settling in like a pro and is already proving to be a major snuggle bug! 🐾 He’s been super playful and is loving his new comfy spot—he’ll even let us hold him like a baby while he melts in our arms. 🥰 He’s definitely making up for lost sleep, and we couldn’t be happier to see him so relaxed and at ease.

He had a great time meeting some other dogs and is showing no interest in the cats so far. His sweet, laid-back personality is really shining through, and we can’t wait to see more of his playful side as he continues to get comfortable and catches up on the much needed sleep.

Meet Tova – Our Sweet Shelter pull, Boy! 🐾

Today, we pulled Tova from the shelter, where he was starved for attention and a bit scared. After a quick stop at Wilco for a treat and a new toy to make him feel a little better, we’ve already seen his sweet side start to shine. He’s a special boy, and we’ve named him Tova, which means “good” in Hebrew, because that’s exactly what he is – a good boy in need of the right family to love him. 💖

Tova did get a little car sick on the way home, but he was such a trooper. Once we arrived, he got a much-needed bath to wash away the shelter smell and start fresh.

While Tova is a bit nervous, especially when my big dogs bark, he’s already showing us that he just needs time and patience to feel safe. He’s looking for a family who will provide him with the love and care he deserves.

If you’re interested in giving Tova his forever home, please reach out! He’s going to make someone a wonderful companion.
