Helena

Helena is a 5-month-old Border Collie/Great Pyrenees mix with a sweet face, a bright mind, and serious puppy charm. She is friendly, social, smart, and an all-around wonderful young dog. Helena enjoys people, other dogs, and is good with cats. She is handling puppyhood with an impressive amount of grace. Because she is a young, active mix of two intelligent breeds, 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. Helena is a great puppy and would be a lucky addition to any home.

Ideal Home

Helena needs a fenced yard where she can safely play and explore. She will thrive in a home that enjoys an engaged and intelligent dog and is prepared for the commitment of raising a puppy.

Ongoing Health

No specific health conditions are mentioned.

Training & Support

Helena will need the usual puppy basics, including structure, training, patience, supervision, and socialization. Homes should be prepared for flexible schedules for potty training, crate training until at least one year old, and consistent socialization. Raising a puppy is equivalent to raising a human toddler and requires at least a full year to develop into a calmer, well-adjusted dog. Patience, appropriate toys, socialization, and obedience training are essential.
