My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

#A5659634 Meet Helen,  a 3-year-old pitbull mix with a sleek, velvety black coat and adorable little sock feet – the perfect pocket-sized pittie! Though she’s a little shy and overwhelmed at the shelter, Helen’s sweet and calm personality truly shines once she feels safe. She’s as pretty as she is kind, with a heart full of love and a gentle spirit. While Helen is still a bit fearful of the leash and isn’t quite sure how to walk on it yet, with some patience and confidence-building, she’ll blossom into her best self. Helen is the perfect low-maintenance companion, with a soft coat that's easy to care for and a big heart that’s ready to share lots of love and affection. Could you be the one to give this sweet girl the home she deserves?

  • 3 year old black and white pitbull mix

  • 33 pound female - not yet spayed, but the procedure is scheduled; will need to be spayed before adoption, which the shelter can take care of!

  • Up to date on all shots and preventatives, so ready to go home with you today! However, Helen has a tendency to walk in circles, which may be a behavioral quirk or something to do with her balance - she will need to be adopted on a health waiver, adopter to see own vet for further diagnostics and potential treatment

  • Came to the Baldwin Park Animal Care Center on 10/24/24 as a stray

  • soft and sleek pocket sized pittie

  • velvety black coat with a white face and chest, and adorable little sock feet - a super easy coat to care for

  • very calm and mellow little girl

  • so frightened and shut down at the shelter, but when she is more comfortable, her vibrant personality shines through!

  • as pretty as she is sweet - has a big heart and a kind spirit

  •  a bit fearful of the leash and circles while on it, like she doesn't know what it's for - is calm on leash but could use more leash work to build her confidence
