Story

Hazard is a handsome male German Shepherd who was brought to the HSOV on October 24, 2024 by the Washington County Ohio Dog Warden along with Moose (a male Mastiff) who had also shared his home. Hazard was approximately 9-years old at that time. He and Moose had been kept in safe-keeping custody. Both boys are now available for adoption since their owner surrendered Hazard and Moose to the dog warden/HSOV on September 3, 2025. Hazard has a blond medium-haired smooth coat, a long bushy tail, and a beautiful German Shepherd face with dark brown eyes, a slender muzzle, a chocolate brown nose, and extra-large erect ears. Hazard and Moose have shared a large suite in our Safe-Keeping Building since their arrival where they have access to a private outdoor 'patio'. His owner reported that Hazard is NOT good with cats. Hazard underwent surgery on January 15th 2025 for the removal of a couple of masses on his lower back. He was also neutered and given rabies vaccine while under anesthesia. Hazard is a fairly big boy who weighed 77 lbs on October 24, 2024. Hazard and Moose are being listed as a Bonded Pair since we feel that it it is their best interest to find another home together. These updated photos of Hazard were taken on September 28, 2025. Thanks to HSOV Volunteer Jennie Payton Sherrard for accompanying Hazard for more flattering outdoor photos. Since Hazard and Moose are so bonded with each other, Jennie and HSOV Volunteer Angel Grosklos teamed up to walk the boys together from their 'bachelor pad' in the Safe Haven Building so that they did not have to be separated from each other. Both Hazard and Moose have extra-friendly dispositions and super-sweet personalities. They were in 'seventh heaven' during their photo session and loved being showered with attention from Jennie and Angel. Their previous owner shared this information about Hazard and Moose: "They are amazing and sweet dogs!!! They love cuddles and treats!!! Hazard aka Hazzy is extremely scared of thunderstorms, loves raw green and red bell peppers, they both love watermelon. Hazard loves balls, and squeaky toys. Moose has one stuffed animal which he has loved all his life and you can get it at chewy, because it gets gross and will need replaced after being washed a hundred times. Hazard is a big talker, Moose is very laid back and quiet. They are quite the odd couple, but love each other dearly!!! They are the best dogs in the world!!!"
