Hazel (DOB February 2022) is a shy girl who needs time to settle in and adjust to new environments. Once she feels comfortable, her sweet and affectionate nature shines through. Hazel needs a dog-savvy home that understands and respects her reserved personality. A quiet household with few visitors and an established routine will help her feel secure and allow her to thrive.
Hazel has a moderate energy level and enjoys playing with plush toys and sticks. She also loves spending time outdoors and racing in circles around the property. Dog-friendly, she will need a playful canine companion to provide friendship and help build her confidence. Just as with people, Hazel needs time and space to get comfortable with new dogs before she’s ready to make friends.
Hazel is crate trained and enjoys long walks, though she prefers to keep her distance from strangers. She is good with children, gets along with cats and does reasonably well in a vehicle. A spacious yard with a 6-foot fence is required.
Hazel is spayed, up to date on vaccines, microchipped and on monthly heartworm prevention. She is fostered in Ocala and is ready for adoption. If you’d like to make Hazel part of your family, please complete an adoption application and submit the processing fee. Questions about Hazel or the adoption process?
