Meet Hazel, our new pup. She was rescued in Tennessee from a high-kill shelter, and arrived by doggie transport (who knew?) two weeks ago. I found this great rescue organization who helped us: Paws 4 Rescue. We are working on a couple of issues with her, but overall she’s fit in very well. She’s successfully stolen 1/2 loaf of bread of the kitchen counter, and chewed Spiderman’s legs off at the knees. She loves to be on squirrel patrol in the backyard, and enjoys watching the airplanes in the sky crossing our backyard. She is a klutz, and much bigger than she imagines herself to be. She’s not so fond of puppy car rides. Yet.
In keeping with the tradition of using tree names for pets (Rowan and Willow), Hazel works well. So far, I call her Nutty Hazel or Witch Hazel. I am her human, which suits me just fine.
