In the shelter’s words

Meet Helen! Helen is a beautiful 2-3 year-old sweetheart. Not only was Helen on a countdown clock to be euthanized, but we soon learned that she was VERY pregnant. We just could not let her story end there, and we made a last-minute decision to save her and her puppies. Helen arrived safely in PA just one week before giving birth to 12 beautiful puppies in September. Her puppies are almost weened and it's time for Helen to find a home of her own where she can be loved and spoiled. She currently weighs just 40 pounds after giving birth, and her foster is working having her regain some weight. Unfortunately, she is HW+, but her treatment is already scheduled and fully sponsored by the rescue. After her Heartworm treatment, she will also be spayed. She is up to date on all vaccines. Her foster family is perfectly content for her to stay with them through treatment and her spay, but, if the perfect home shows up prior, she can certainty move into her forever home and undergo treatment there. The rescue will continue to support her (and her new family) through this process. she's ready to find the loving family she's been waiting for. Helen is just a gorgeous chocolate brown and as cute as can be! But that is just the beginning. Her personality is where she really shines. She's so sweet and loving! She enjoys taking walks, she's great on the leash, she loves spending time outdoors, and is friendly with both people and the other dogs. She LOVES to be next to her person and give cuddles. She is also crate trained and is perfectly fine being left during the day. They have not observed any type of food aggression or resource guarding. She is not a jumper, so she is safe around kids. Helen is the whole package and a family will be lucky to have her. She has a gentle, affectionate personality and would love nothing more than a family to call her own. Helen deserves a soft bed, a warm home, and someone to love her forever. She can't wait to find her happily ever after!
