About Hazel FKA Billie

Meet Hazel, formerly known as Billie. This 5-year-old mixed-breed dog isn't the typical choice for everyone, and that's precisely why she needs someone special. At around 70 pounds, Hazel thrives in a tranquil, adult-only environment. She prefers a calm atmosphere devoid of children and chaos, where patience and understanding are paramount. Hazel is both house trained and crate trained. She flourishes with a structured routine and enjoys toys and bones, especially when they keep her engaged. Transitioning to new settings can be challenging for her; therefore, when welcoming her to a new home, it's best to let her explore at her own pace. Her past experiences in cars have been limited, so she'll need a patient adopter to help her build confidence slowly. Hazel might get along with another dog if introductions are done carefully and the other dog respects her space, but she cannot live with cats. She is not for everyone, requiring an experienced owner who understands that trust takes time to build. For someone willing to go the extra mile, the rewards of gaining her trust and forming a bond will make it all worthwhile. Hazel is waiting for a person who appreciates the beautiful, imperfect journey of companionship. Ready to make a difference in Hazel's life? Apply today!
