About Hazel

Hazel is a 7-year-old Doodle mix living in Knoxville, TN. This sweetheart adores people but can be a bit shy at first. Once she warms up, she becomes a devoted companion who loves to stay close. Her intelligence and treat motivation make learning new tricks enjoyable for her. While Hazel gets along with other dogs, she can be protective of her food and may express herself vocally if she feels someone is encroaching on her meal. Hazel experiences some separation anxiety and is best suited for a home where someone is around frequently. She’s currently undergoing treatment for heartworm disease, so she needs short-term exercise restrictions. She has medications to keep her comfortable during this time. If you're ready to offer her the loving home she deserves, consider Hazel. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
