Helena

Helena is a charming 5-month-old Border Collie/Great Pyrenees mix with a bright mind and a sweet disposition. She's friendly, social, and gets along well with other dogs and cats, approaching puppyhood with impressive grace. Helena is a wonderful young dog who is sure to bring joy to any family.

Ideal Home

Helena needs a securely fenced yard where she can safely run, play, and explore. She'll thrive in a home with an active family who understands and enjoys engaging with a smart, curious dog and is prepared for the ongoing learning process that comes with raising a puppy.

Ongoing Health

No specific health concerns are noted in her listing.

Training & Support

As a puppy, Helena will need consistent structure, training, patience, and supervision. Adopters should be prepared for the typical needs of a young, energetic dog, including potty training (she can hold her bladder for approximately one hour per month of age), crate training until at least one year old to prevent chewing, and extensive socialization. Raising a puppy is akin to raising a human toddler, and it takes at least a full year to help them mature into a calmer, well-adjusted adult. Patience, appropriate toys, socialization, and obedience training are essential for her success.
