My story

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

Hi, I`m Helen! I`m about 1 years old and weigh 61 pounds.

I`m eligible for Greenhill`s Foster-to-Adopt Program! Through this program, you can foster me to see if we are a good match before committing to an adoption. Canine program staff can tell you more and you can learn more about this program here: www.green-hill.org/foster-to-adopt.

Do you like...

Dogs? I can come on strong and I like to play a lot! Please bring any similar sized dogs to meet me!

Cats? With slow intros and close supervision I might do ok living with a feline friend.

Kids? I would do best in a home with calmer, older kiddos (13+)

Anything else you`d like us to know, Helen? I am undersocialized and the world can be a scary place for me. I am looking for someone with patience and understanding to help with my training and show me the world isn`t all that scary after all!

I`m a volunteer favorite and here`s why:
`Helen has been warming up by leaps and bounds since she got here as a stray. She might be reserved in the beginning, but I can tell that she is a very sweet girl. She is such a cutie, and it is rewarding to earn her trust.`
&
`I adore Helen. She is smart, perceptive, gorgeous, and I enjoy just sitting with her. Don’t let her shyness fool you. Once she knows you, she is known to be a playful, goofy, interactive girl.`

I came into the shelter as a stray and the above information is all recommendations based on my behavior seen at the shelter. I have no known history. Expect to learn more about me after adoption.

It is unknown how this animal will do in their new home as all animals can be different with each person. It is important to take this into consideration when thinking about adopting and making sure you are prepared to work with any potential medical or behavior issues that occur after adoption.

My adoption fee includes my spay/neuter, current vaccinations, permanent microchip identification, certificate for a free veterinary exam, post-adoption support and more!

Thank you for taking the time to learn a little about me! If you think we would be a good match come on down and ask to meet me! I`m looking for my forever home and it could be with you!

ADOPTION INFORMATION: If you live in the city of Eugene or in Lane County you will be purchasing a dog license in addition to the adoption fee. You will get to choose between a one year, two year, or three year license.

More about this shelter

Greenhill Humane Society has been caring for animals in Lane County since 1944. We operate the only animal shelter within the Eugene/Springfield area. Our programs include animal adoptions; reuniting lost animals with their families; disaster response; crisis care boarding in situations of domestic violence, medical emergencies, and other crisis situations; spay/neuter for free roaming, un-owned community cats; a pet pantry; on-site volunteer opportunities; foster care and humane education.

Last year, we helped reunite or find new loving homes for 2,826 animals. In addition, we provided 469 cat spay/neuter surgeries to assist cat caregivers in reducing feral cat over-population.

Greenhill is a private non-profit and relies on donations for a majority of its budget. The generosity of our local community enables us to provide a high level of care to lost, abandoned, and neglected animals while at the same time helping pet owners in need.
