About Hazel

Hazel is a charming young Maltese, around 1 year old and weighing just 8 pounds. Rescued from Palmdale shelter, her name reflects her stunning hazel eyes. When she arrived, her fur was matted and in desperate need of care, but thanks to a skilled groomer, she looks fantastic now! Hazel's hidden tan spots are starting to show, promising to highlight her beauty as her coat grows. Despite her past, Hazel is incredibly sweet and docile. She's gaining confidence day by day, eagerly seeking affection from her foster family. She gets along well with other dogs and is quickly learning to go potty outside. All she needs now is a loving home where she can continue to flourish. Hazel is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on her vaccinations. Ready to meet this precious girl?
