Meet Helena, a beautiful medium-sized mixed breed looking for a fresh start. Since she arrived as a stray, her past is a mystery, but it's clear she's ready to embrace a new chapter. Initially timid and unsure of her surroundings, Helena has blossomed as she’s settled into her routine. With time, her gentle heart has started to shine, revealing a loving companion who truly appreciates affection and belly rubs. Helena is still a bit cautious around other dogs, so slow introductions are a must. She thrives in a patient environment that allows her to build trust at her own pace. We recommend a home with older, respectful children who can give her the space she needs while she adjusts. It’s important to note that Helena would do best in a home without cats or other small animals. If you're looking for a loyal friend and have the patience to help her flourish, Helena could be your perfect match. Give her a chance, and you may find a lifetime of love waiting in return.
