Hi, I`m Hazelnut, but my friends call me Hazel! Shelter life is a little scary for me, so I might seem shy or unsure at first—but once I’m outside, I turn into a whole different dog! I love being in the fresh air, exploring, and just being around my people. Honestly, I’ll be your little (okay, big) shadow—I love following you around, leaning my whole body into you for pets, cuddles, and scratches.
I’m housebroken and know “sit,” and while I do pull a little on walks, a harness helps a lot. I’ve lived with other big dogs before, but I can be a bit picky with my dog friends, so slow introductions are best. I have a high prey drive, so no small dogs or cats for me, please.
At my core, I’m super sweet and just want to be close to someone who will love me back. If you’re looking for a loyal, snuggly, outdoors-loving companion, I might just be your girl.
