Helena's entire life was turned upside down when her loving owner suddenly and tragically lost their life. Leaving behind the sweet pup they adopted less than 2 years ago from Animal Haven, she had no where else to go. Of course, Helena always has a place with us, but we are heartbroken for her and all she has been through. Helena was adopted out as a young pup and has known nothing but love her entire life. From the moment she entered our care at just a few weeks old with her mother and siblings, we've always known she was special. She gets along well with other dogs, lived with a senior cat, and is just an all around good girl. She's a little pocket bully and is a good size for an apartment and would make a great companion for her future family. Come meet Helena at Animal Haven! (We still have her baby pictures, look how much she's grown!)

Mixed Breed

🧠 Temperament

Helena's entire life was turned upside down when her loving owner suddenly and tragically lost their life. Mixed-breed dogs pull traits from several lines, which often means fewer breed-linked health problems and a temperament best judged by meeting the dog.

🎾 Exercise

Depends on the individual. A daily walk plus play is the baseline; ask the foster how the dog behaves after a quiet day.

✂️ Grooming

Varies with coat type. Short coats need little; longer or double coats need regular brushing.
