Hi. I’m Helena! I’m a sweet five-month-old Shepherd mix puppy searching for my forever family. Notice my great colour. It’s shiny and healthy! You should see my snazzy braided tail!

I am a sweet and affectionate girl puppy who loves to play. I relish a fun game of tug-of-war, and love a good nap to recover. To ensure that I got the best start in my new life … my living space was limited. The kitchen and eating area were a great choice for me. It is a safe area.

I have never peed and pooped inside my foster home. You could say, that I am housetrained and kennel trained. For bed time, I sleep in my kennel because my foster parents do not want me to get into any trouble. I bet I would be OK at night being out of the kennel too. Most nights, I sleep until 6am without a peep.

I am not sure about cats, kids, or other dogs as I just came into care 2 weeks ago and have not had time to meet any yet. With proper introductions, I bet I could learn to love them. I was rescued with my brother and sister so I was used to them.

I’m a bit timid and little children’s movements might scare me, so I might be best off in a home with slightly older children so everyone is comfortable.

I love meeting other human adults though, you should see my bum wiggle in delight or when I am lying down thumping my tail on the floor when I am being petted.

I am learning how to go on walks but have only been around the yard with the leash. I come when called, can sit, go down, am learning how to stay. I love being rewarded with treats and affection. I enjoy my chew toys. I am very food motivated so I have learned a lot in a short amount of time.

I’m not just a pretty face you see. I am looking for a loving family that will play with me and teach me how to be a great family pet. I am a dog who would love to show you how much love I have to give. I am looking forward to giving lots of enjoyment to my fur-ever family!
