Hazel

Hazel is a bright and affectionate dog with a big heart and an even bigger love for belly rubs and chest scratches. This lovely girl thrives on routine and has quickly adapted in her foster home, where both of her foster parents work full-time. Whether she's snoozing on the couch, enjoying a tasty kangaroo tail treat, or showing off her impressive "sit" and "shake" commands, Hazel's charm is impossible to resist.

Hazel loves spending time with her humans and is happiest when included in daily activities. From cozy evenings on the couch to weekend trips to Bunnings or the beach, she's always up for an adventure. She walks well on a leash once her initial excitement calms down and enjoys exploring new sights and smells. Hazel also adores her toys, with tug-of-war ropes and treat puzzles being her absolute favorites. Her evening apple slice is a daily highlight, and she'll happily show off her smarts for a tasty snack.

While Hazel is a sweetheart, she can be vocal when seeing new people on walks because she loves everyone and wants to greet them. With some guidance, she's learning to stay calm in these moments. At home, she may bark at visitors at first, but once she's introduced, her friendly and affectionate nature shines through. Hazel's excitement can sometimes get the best of her, but with ongoing training and patience, she continues to grow into the confident and well-mannered dog she's meant to be.

Hazel's ideal home is one with loving and patient adults who understand her working-dog energy and need for consistency. While she's independent during the day, Hazel craves companionship and will happily curl up nearby or on the couch for some quality time. If you're ready to welcome a loyal and affectionate dog into your life, Hazel is eager to meet you and show you just how much joy she can bring!
