Nova's Heart Animal Support Services

We are a 501c3 non profit organization helping the pets of those in crisis and aiding our local rescues when we are able.

One fall day I was getting gas and noticed a young man with a beautiful but skinny dog in the grassy area near the service station. I always carry dog treats and food in case I find a stray needing food or need to use a treat to help lure a rescue from its hiding spot. I approached the young man and asked him if I could give his dog a treat, he said I could and it would be much appreciated. She was very happy to get it and greeted me with a wag of her tail, I asked him if he could use some food for her and he said that would also be very much appreciated. When I returned with the food, he and I chatted a minute about her, him saying that she was his best girl and her name was Nova. After I spent a minute petting her and saying goodbye I turned and went back to what I had been doing. I thought about the two of them constantly for a week and then decided to see if some of the other rescuers in our area would join me in providing something for the pets of our cities homeless. Through the resources of the HUB we are going to be able to help feed, give warmth and minor veterinary care to those who need it. Named after that beautiful Furr girl, Nova’s Heart is a group of individuals from various rescue groups around the Shreveport/Bossier Louisiana area who want to help the pets of our cities homeless.

Yesterday’s rabies clinic was so busy with most pups getting both rabies and their yearly boosters. We thought we may not see any today but 5 pups came.

Keep your pups healthy! Let us help. ❤️

Today was our rabies clinic and we were so busy we didn’t get all the pictures but the ones we did get are posted. Most of the pups that came in today got their yearly boosters and their rabies vaccine. We like to do them both if they are age appropriate and bigger pups. We don’t like to do them both on the little tiny ones.

You will see a picture of a very sweet shy pup giving Dr. Killian some love. She was once a Veteran’s service animal but he passed away and now she is learning a new person to take care of daily. She is a sweet girl.

We also had some kittens come in but they were too young and weren’t quite to the weight they needed to be so we will get them later. (Thanks Cindy for your donation of the scales, they really came in handy today.)

Tomorrow, the 5th, from 9-11:30 is regular vaccination day. You must arrive before 11. We hope to see some pups and kitties tomorrow but giving so many today made our hearts happy. Most people want to do right by their pets and we are happy to help them with that. ❤️❤️

It’s a busy week at Nova’s Heart!

Please note that if you are attending a vaccine clinic, no attendance will be allowed 30 minutes prior to our end time. This gives us time to take care of the pets and the corresponding paperwork. Take care to arrive early for these services.

As we recover from our sugar high over the weekend, we were reminded that we are entering into a season of Thanksgiving. We are so thankful for each of you who support our mission!

We have an update for our monthly wish list. Blankets! Who doesn't want to be snuggled up with a blanket on these cooler nights?

Remember, as always, donations can be dropped off at Hope House during our service hours or to our friends at Hollywood Feed and just let them know its for us!

Thanks again!

As we head into this month of Thanksgiving, we want to make sure we get the word out now that the Nova's Heart team will be taking the week of Thanksgiving off. This gives our volunteers time to rest, recoup, spend time with loved ones, and then return fresh and ready to finish the year strong!

Please plan accordingly for our closure. Thank you for understanding.

Today was a short day, but we got to give out some love to a few folks!

Thanks to our friends at Hollywood Feed for sending donations. And thanks also to Joyride's Kitchen for sending so many wonderful treats! We know our friends always appreciate the goodies we receive as donations.

2026 has been a whirlwind and who can believe that next week is November?! Where has the year gone. See you soon!

This is a personal post. I just thought everyone should know why I may be absent from NH occasionally. There is no need to worry, the other volunteers are very capable of handling things. Raine

First I would like to say thank you to every person that has called, text, and messaged concerning Michael.

Secondly since we are all exhausted I will try and explain here. Michael had a bad episode with breathing Saturday, he had been having some trouble but Saturday was really bad. We went to the ER and they ran some tests. We want to thank our PA Christy that got the ball rolling and has been such a tremendous help to us. I don’t know what we would have done without her. ❤️

We have the absolute best children ever. They have been by our side every step of the way. Thank you Mason, Taryn, and Bri for taking care of the little things and to Bri for handling all the medical stuff.

I don’t do Dr. speak so well but this is what I understand. After several different tests and procedures they found that there was fluid around his heart and in his lungs. They also found that he has 3 major blockages in the arteries of his heart. He is not a candidate for any surgical procedure here so we have been referred to Baylor for transplant protocol.

We have felt your prayers and ask that you continue to pray. We do not know what the future holds but we know who holds the future.

On a personal note I would like to thank Brandy, Justin, Daniel, and Susan for stepping in and handling things at Nova's Heart Animal Support Services while I needed to be with Michael. And to Ellen and Vicki for doing events we were committed to do and running the page in my absence.

We have a long road ahead but when you are surrounded by wonderful caring people it makes the load a little easier.

We love you all! ❤️
