Helga

Rat Terrier Mixed Breed (Small)

Female, 7 yrs 3 mos
Wadena, MN
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with dogs, House-trained,
Story
This sweet mama has done a wonderful job raising her puppies, and now it’s her turn to find a loving forever home. Helga is a beautiful, laid-back girl who is both independent and affectionate—a perfect balance for someone looking for a companion without the constant demands of a high-energy pup. Helga appears to be housebroken—she patiently waits to go outside and has never had an accident on the porch. She’s also doing well on a leash and comes back eagerly when called (especially if treats are involved!). She enjoys exploring the yard and taking her time to poke around, but she always checks back in with her people. She’s very loving with her foster family and happily soaks up pets and attention, but she’s also content to relax on her own. Helga does bark at unfamiliar noises, though it never lasts long. She is still heartworm positive and will need treatment, as well as to be spayed before adoption. As for cats, she’s a bit inconsistent—sometimes ignoring them completely, other times a little too interested—so a cat-free home or slow introductions would be best. Helga is ready for a family who will give her love, patience, and a safe place to call home. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who is both calm and affectionate, Helga could be the one for you.
