Adopt A Pet This week’s featured friend: Helen Have you ever seen such an amazing set of blue eyes?

Or how about my ears? My name is Helen and although I have these awesome stand up ears, I am actually deaf. No worries though. Just because I am deaf doesn't mean I can't learn or won't be able to intergrate nicely into home. There are so many cool ways to do training with a deaf dog and the voluteers at the shelter are more than happy to direct you in a direction to help me. I am sure we would do great training together and make a proud team! I am happy, wiggly, affectionate, and an all around sweet girl. I would really like to be in a family that is on the move that will take time to play with me, train me and have me as a proud member of their life/lives. Please stop in and take a llook at me Helen, I am sure you will fall in love immediately. WAGS & WIGGLES ~~~ HELEN...... Pet ID: 19988867 City of Bu alo Animal Shelter 380 N.
