Helma is a very intelligent, observant, and affectionate 4 year-old pointer. We know nothing about her past, but it's safe to say that it wasn't great. She loves and craves human attention. She is playful and loves all kinds of chew toys. She gets along with dogs of all sizes and enjoys playing with them. We doubt that Helma has been trained to do anything, but she has done very well as an inside dog. She sleeps through the night in her crate, and she has learned that her crate is her lounging place-she goes in sometimes during the day to sleep in it. We don't think that she needs to be crated when left alone-she has not touched or done anything she is not supposed to since her first day with us. She has never had an accident. We have left her in the house for short periods of time, and she has done very well - usually, she just waits by the front door for us to come back. We think that not being crated while we are gone reduces her separation anxiety. She does have separation anxiety, which has already gotten better-we think the key is that she learns the routine and figures out that we will be back, so she no longer cries as much as she did in the beginning and stops crying after we leave. Helma is very quiet during the day while we work at home, and she will need to be in a home where someone is home most of the day. She loves a big fluffy bed. Helma is afraid of moving cars, and we assume that she lost her leg after being hit by a car. She has no problem riding in cars and remains in the back seat with no complaints. Helma will be a great addition to the right family. We love her and think that she has great potential.
