My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Helix (Birthday: 03/26/2010, black and white, 85lbs) I'm a fluffy, 5.5 year old Border Collie/Great Pyrenees who was rescued from Lancaster, SC. I was a side of the road pup, and I was taken in at just 6 weeks. I had a lot of anxiety in the beginning, by my family has helped me work through most of it. I still get nervous around rowdy kids, some men, and loud noises, but I'm a flight puppy; I find a place I can crawl into or under and hide. Once I get used to the noise or the person, I'm much less afraid. I also have some separation anxiety, and always prefer to be with Giacomo (see courtesy listing this site). He's my big brother, he's my protector when I'm scared. I love to swim! Ponds, pools, lakes, I love it all! I like hiking, too. Mmm, that fresh mountain air! Fetch really isn't my thing, I prefer snuggling up by your feet and watching others exert the effort. I'm a gentle giant. My fur can get pretty long, but I like having it short in the summer.

We're both 100% house and crate trained. We will always tell you when we need to go out. We can be left out of our crates all day and night, but if there are lots of unfamiliar guests, we like to be in our comfy space. We love other dogs, and the dog park is always exciting! We both shed, but if we're brushed regularly, it's not too bad. We're uptodate on our shots, and definitely won't be fathering ANY pups. We'd love to find an active family, ideally one without young kids (age 13+ only). We're both healthy, happy boys, and we're so excited to meet our new family!
