“But I loooove you.”

John, the man in the photo, is actually very fond of Nova but sometimes Nova gets a little overenthusiastic about trying to lavish his kisses onto John. 

Nova, king of all he surveys.

“Well? Are we going for a walk now or not?”

The answer is always yes — those eyes are irresistible!

Hey, this post is for http://read-through-your-scars.tumblr.com/ who appreciates dogs, thinks Nova is cute and is generally pretty awesome. <3 And would be awesome even if she didn’t love dogs (loving dogs is just proof that she’s awesome).

Anyway, RTYS, Nova wishes you all the best and waves his little magic wand to try to send you good thoughts. If you start feeling sad, just remember that there is a tiny white ball of fluff that is full of love for everyone, including you.

Nova is the cutest wizard in the world. He’s got me under a love spell.

Nova in his Halloween costume! He was a wizard. I made the cape myself — it’s blue satin, trimmed with black lace, with a black satin necklace fastened with a blue brooch, and a black mesh overlay.

Nova asleep on my bed. He is so adorable.

Maltese ATTACK! Don’t worry, the two dogs are friends!

Nova is bowing down and kissing Bundi’s paw in acknowledgment of Bundi’s bigness.

Nova tries to get over his height complex by standing on his hind legs but he’s STILL smaller than Bundi.

“Stick with me, kid. I’m going places.”

Nova the Maltese meets Bundi the Samoyed.

Nova wants me to pay attention to HIM, not the laptop.

He is little but full of love.

Happy puppy is happy! Look at how cute that tongue is.

Nova really, really likes to run into the lake to cool off. Unfortunately, that gives him the look of wearing little black leggings.
