Meet Helen (10yo, 53lbs)

FYI... the next FOUR adoptions are sponsored by ZEIGLER & ZIEGLER LAW FIRM of Hinton, WV! Meet HELEN, a sweet and loving girl who is looking for a forever home where she can stay close to the people she loves most. Helen's world may look a little different than most dogs', because she is blind and hard of hearing. You might see her stumble from time to time as she figures things out, but what she lacks in eyesight she more than makes up for with resilience, affection, and a heart full of love. Most importantly, Helen is now safe, secure, and finally receiving the care and attention she deserves. This gentle girl absolutely adores people and loves being close to her humans. Whether you're relaxing at home, heading out on an adventure, or taking a drive through the countryside, Helen wants to be right there with you. In fact, one of her favorite things in the world is riding in the car! Just mention a road trip, and she's ready to go. Helen gets along wonderfully with other dogs, is doing great with pottying outside, and has a calm, affectionate personality that makes everyone who meets her fall in love. She would thrive in a home with someone who has plenty of time to spend with her, perhaps a retiree, work-from-home companion, or anyone looking for a loyal shadow to share their days. A few things we love about Helen: • Wonderful with people • Great with other dogs • Doing well with outdoor potty routines • Loves being close to her humans • Enjoys adventures • LOVES car rides • Sweet, gentle, and affectionate Helen may need a little extra patience as she continues to navigate the world around her, but she will reward that kindness with a lifetime of unconditional love, loyalty, and companionship. She doesn't need perfect eyesight to know exactly where she belongs... right beside her person. She is currently on trazadone and carprofen to help manager pain and anxiety, so her adopter must commit to medically supporting her needs. If you're looking for a best friend who will love you with her whole heart, Helen is ready to meet you. Please share Helen's story and help her find the forever home she deserves!
