Meet Hazel 🐾

Last winter, our peace officers responded to a rural property in Alberta where they found eight large-breed puppies living in heartbreaking conditions. Among them was Hazel.

Confined to a small, unsanitary room with no outdoor access, Hazel was frightened and clearly neglected when officers arrived. She was removed, received immediate veterinary care, and was placed with a caregiver to recover. Just two weeks later, she was running, playing, and asking for belly rubs.

Her story is a reminder of the resilience animals can have when given a chance to heal.

🐾 Profile: The Noble Stoic "Griffon"
Age: 5 years
Weight: 35 lbs
Breed: Beagle cross (compact, sturdy build)
Energy Level: Low-to-moderate (selective bursts only)

Personality:
A quiet noble at heart, this pup carries themself with calm dignity—until you earn their trust. Initially reserved and observant, he likes to size up the room before engaging. Once comfortable, his playful side peeks out in gentle, endearing ways: a sneaky toy toss, a sideways grin, ( literally)or a soft nudge asking for attention.

He is a certified Velcro dog—deeply affectionate, happiest when close, and absolutely thriving on cuddles and praise. Loves being admired and will happily soak up attention like royalty on a velvet cushion.

Temperament Highlights:

Stoic and composed at first meeting

Sweet, playful, and goofy once bonded

Extremely affectionate and people-oriented

Enjoys routine, calm environments, and cozy naps

Prefers quality cuddle time over chaotic activity

Ideal Home:
Perfect for someone who appreciates a calm companion with a soft, playful core. Thrives with gentle structure, steady affection, and lots of physical closeness. Great for relaxed households, couch companions, and anyone who believes love should come with a side of dignity.

Signature Move:
Leaning their full 35 pounds into you and sighing dramatically—because cuddles are serious.

The ladies! Yes they are up for adoption!
