Hello, I'm Helga

Please say a gentle hello to Helga , who is a 5 year old French bulldog. On arrival at the centre our Helga was very confused. wouldn’t you be if you where being dumped by the person who was meant to keep you safe? Unfortunately Helga is another fake stray who has been disregarded.

However once she found a friend she could trust she slowly came out her shell and became more relaxed with her surroundings.

She has been going on mini adventures with her new friends and exploring a little further each time. She seems to have a good lead manners and is none reactive to traffic or cyclists.

Helga is a little vocal passing other dogs,  we will hopefully work on making some canine friends while she at the centre and she will be able to continue her training plan in her new home and enrol on to training classes to help prepare further.

Once helga is comfortable with you she likes to jump around for a fuss. She is working on calm skills and has learnt to relax for a chin and stomach fuss with out all the excitement. Obviously treats are involved with her training so helga is up for a challenge when food is around.

Helga loves a good zoomie and playing with toys (again once she is comfortable and settled)
Her confidence is growing daily, she can still get spooked if you move too fast or if she hears loud noises. Reassuring her seems to help her relax quickly and she soon forgets.

Helga is looking for a quiet home, it would not be fair to place her in a busy house hold as she would not cope with the hussel and bustle .

If you are looking for a cuddle companion who needs time to adjust and someone who up for a good walk a couple of times a day then please consider Helga. She can’t wait to meet you.

Helga needs and adult only dog free home,
We Would be happy to introduce calm resident felines. Helga will require upkeep to her face folds and bottom area to avoid bacteria build up.
