Story
> good with indoor cats, not outdoor cats as she becomes prey driven. > good with dogs, would benefit from a meet and greet first. > potty trained but needs let out at least three times a day to prevent accidents. > loves all people and Is only 1 belly rub away from being your new best friend. > Very mild food aggression if any animals try to eat out of her designated food bowl. Not food aggressive towards people at all. > had a cruciate ligament tear inx her knee at some point but two vets have said surgery is not required as it is an old injury that has had scar tissue to grow around it. She gets around just fine and isn’t in pain from it. Will likely need arthritis pain medication in the future according to her most recent vet visit. > she loves soft squeaky toys to play with but must be watched or she will eat them! She will also eat socks if she gets bored so make sure she gets walks and attention and to keep socks off the floor.

Story
Hazelle is a 19 month old female Doberman. Spayed, never had a litter, and microchipped. She is Brown, AKC registered and up to date on shots. Very sweet and loving once you spend time with her. She is very clingy and wants to be near you at every moment. Was raised in a home with kids and another puppy. Loves kids but has to get used to new ones. Plays a lot with other dogs after spending time with them (takes her a while to warm up). House trained, can manage at home alone for hours but will follow you everywhere once you are home. We’ve loved her since she came to us when she was 5 weeks old but we feel we have just become too busy to give her all the attention and love she desires. Would love a family that can give more time. She does not bark a lot. Usually quiet. She loves to play outside. She requires playology deep chewer toys. She loves to Tear her toys apart. She gets scared when most people approach. At this time, Hazelle is not interested in relationships with dogs.
