About Hazel Green

Meet Hazel Green. This little girl embodies her name with her warm, reddish-brown coat, reminiscent of light brown hues with golden undertones. At around 5 years old and weighing in at just 8 pounds, she's a delightful mix of Italian Greyhound and Chihuahua. Hazel arrived at Animal Control frightened but has quickly adapted to the comforts of foster care, embracing cuddles, soft beds, and warm laps. She enjoys her playtime with other small dogs, loves to explore her surroundings, and has even mastered the doggy door. While she had a few accidents at first, she’s proving to be house-trained with just a little help in her new home. Hazel is curious about cats and has shown some interest, though she’s not aggressive. When it comes to kids, she does well with calm children over the age of five but is best suited to a quieter household, as she can be startled by loud noises. Hazel is still a work in progress with her leash training but brings heaps of sweetness and affection to anyone who welcomes her home. If you’re looking for a loving companion eager to cuddle and share sweet moments, Hazel Green could be the perfect match for you. Give her a little time to adjust, and she’ll reward you with endless love and laughter. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
