Hi, I’m Hazel, and this is my story. My amazing mama birthed and nursed me and my siblings in a hay bale in the middle of nowhere, Texas. (Literally in a hay bale!) When some wonderful humans finally earned her trust, they rescued the whole family. That was a great day!
We took a looooooong ride north last summer and I was adopted as an adorable merle-coated, big-eared puppy. Who could resist, right?! I thought I’d found my forever person!
Flash forward to early 2023 and my human mama no longer had time for me. Plus I hadn’t been spayed or trained, so I was a bit of a “hot mess” as you humans would say. But a sweet, smart girl with tons of potential and the urge to please!
My heroes at TRU really want me to be successful. I've been spayed and am up-to-date on my vaccines, and while they've been working hard to find my forever family (for real this time!), it hasn't happened yet. I recently spent three weeks with a fantastic trainer in a board and train program that did wonders for me, teaching me how to positively engage my energetic brain and body! (See how I’m sitting so pretty in this picture?)
So here I sit, still looking for that forever home that’s truly the right fit. I am a year old now, about 40 lbs., and likely a pit/hound mix. I am dog friendly but I play pretty rough, so another pup (or pups!) would have to be able to match that energy and play style. I will need plenty of exercise and mental stimulation daily. I do like to chase cats and could knock over small children, potentially, when I get excited (which is often, because life is exciting!). A fence would be amazing! I’m such a GOOD girl that had such a WILD start to life. I’m just waiting for my adventure buddy and someone that will love me forever so I can love them back!

Thanks for listening!
Xoxo,
Hazel
