Meet Hazel, the enchanting 12-lb, 3-month-old chocolate Aussie Shepherd mix with a fluffy coat that feels like a cloud and a joyful spirit that can light up the room! This little dynamo is a spunky, playful ball of energy, guaranteed to bring a smile to your face every single day. 🌟 Playtime? Oh, she’s all in! But when it’s time to wind down, get ready for some serious cuddle sessions, as she morphs into the most adorable snuggle bunny you could ever hope for! 🥰 Now, let’s talk about Hazel’s personality. When first meeting new friends, she might come off a bit shy—probably just feeling out the scene with those big, curious puppy eyes. But don’t let that fool you! Once she feels safe, the vibrant, outgoing nature of this little explorer shines like a bright star. ✨ With a heart full of mischief and a curious nose, she’s fully immersed in that delightful learning phase of puppyhood, ready to tackle new adventures with her future family. Hazel would thrive in a warm, loving home with another friendly dog—perfect for playdates and showing her the ropes! Don’t forget, she comes with a set of sharp little puppy teeth and all the spirit of a typical puppy ready to explore! Currently, she’s in a foster home with dogs of various sizes and ages, and guess what? She’s absolutely thriving with her canine companions! 🐾 Smart as a whip, Hazel is just kicking off her dog-door potty training. She’s loving the independence of heading outside for potty breaks and playtime! 🚪💩 Rides? Oh, she’s a champion in a doggy car seat, and she’s getting the hang of leash training too! At night, Hazel prefers being close to her humans, snuggling in for some quality shut-eye, and she’s not a fan of being crated—who could blame her? 💤 Because Hazel is still completing her vaccinations, she will need a home with a secure private yard for her playful exploration—public parks can wait, as safety is the name of the game! As for cats? Well, she hasn’t met one yet, so it’s an open question! 😼 Hazel is on the lookout for an active and dedicated family who truly understands the joys and responsibilities of raising a puppy. A thoughtful post-adoption plan is essential, including ongoing training, socialization, and tons of love to nurture her growing spirit.
