About Haze

Haze is the wiggliest little cattle dog/pittie mix you'll ever meet. Always ready for a cuddle or a round of play, this dog keeps things upbeat and cheerful. He weighs just under 50 lbs and got his start on a farm, where it turned out he liked chasing things—especially chickens and cats. Because he gets a bit too excited around cats, he needs a home without them. When it comes to dogs and people, Haze feels right at home. He gets along well with other dogs and is drawn to people, eager to make friends and soak up affection. New toys still puzzle him a bit, but he loves treats, soft places to lounge, and sharing attention. Even when he gets mouthy with excitement, it’s always gentle and meant in play. What truly stands out is the joy that overtakes Haze when he gets attention or love—the wiggles are non-stop and contagious. If you want a loyal companion whose happy energy could light up even a dark day, Haze is waiting to meet you. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
