Helena

Helena is a 5-month-old Border Collie/Great Pyrenees mix with a sweet face, a bright mind, and serious puppy charm! She's friendly, social, smart, and an all-around wonderful young dog. Helena enjoys people, gets along well with other dogs, and is even good with cats. She's handling puppyhood with impressive grace, but as a baby, she'll need the usual puppy basics: structure, training, patience, supervision, and a family ready to help her grow into the lovely adult dog she is clearly meant to become.

Ideal Home

Helena needs a fenced yard where she can run, play, explore, and burn off her puppy energy safely. She will do best with a family that enjoys a bright, engaged dog and understands that smart puppies are always learning.

Ongoing Health

Helena is a young puppy. Adopters should be prepared for the normal health needs of a growing dog.

Training & Support

Helena is a puppy and will need consistent training and socialization. Adopters must be prepared for the commitment involved in raising a puppy, including:

• Flexible schedules for potty training. Puppies can only hold it for one hour per month of age.
• Crate training until the puppy is at least one year old to prevent chewing on inappropriate things when unsupervised.
• Socialization with a variety of positive experiences.
• Patience, as it takes at least a full year to have a calmer, well-adjusted dog.
• Appropriate toys, socialization, and obedience training are musts.
