Hazel is a sweet 6-year old+ female Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler mix who was brought to the HSOV on February 19, 2026 by the Washington County Ohio Dog Warden who had picked Hazel up at 4900 State Route 676 in Stockport Ohio. This little lady was not wearing a collar, and she was not microchipped. Hazel has a gray-and-white coat with subtle tan shading, a long tail, and a beautiful face with soulful brown eyes, a slender muzzle, and large floppy gray/white ears. Hazel has a quiet, gentle disposition and has touched the heart of everyone who has met this lovely older girl. Hazel is currently being housed in the front office of our shelter where she is enjoying out-of-cage/kennel freedom. Hazel loves the soft beds/blankets and sharing snacks with our HSOV staff .. And she especially loves being with someone during the day to politely ask for attention and to be told what a good girl she is. Hazel is absolutely precious (and even more so when you watch her quietly taking a nap nestled in her bed/blankets. Hazel currently weighs 37.6 lbs and isn't a very large girl when you see her in person. Hazel is gentle/easy to walk on a leash when she is taken for short walks and/or bathroom breaks. In compliance with the Ohio Revised Code, Hazel was held for the mandatory three-day stray hold so that her family would have an opportunity to reclaim her with proof of ownership. We had posted her pictures on our HSOV Facebook pages the day she arrived and hoped that someone would recognize her. Sadly, nobody called or came looking for this little sweetheart. Hazel would love to find a quiet home with someone who would be with her 24/7 and to be her new soulmate.
