Age: 6 mths old

Type of home needed:Lovely little Hazel was found abandoned and taken into a dog pound in UK along with her sister and brother. When not claimed after one week because all dog pounds are currently over stretched, all three pups where on the put to sleep list, so we have taken them in and Hazel is going into a foster home with her sister to recoup from this ordeal. Understandably Hazel is very nervous at the moment and feels better when her sister is close by. She would really benefit from going into a new home alongside a happy, confident dog that she can bond with and learn from. Just given time, love and commitment she will blossom.

dontgiveup


Note to adopters:

Lassie, Rin Tin Tin and Toto do not show up in rescue. We do not get the elegantly coiffed, classically beautiful, completely well trained, perfect dog. Many never had good veterinary care, kind or consistent training, or sufficient company. Some have lived outside, or left alone for many hours every day. When rehomed they are scared or depressed and anxious and will act out of character but time, patience and love will solve this. When you take on a rescue dog you need to be 100% committed to making it work, ride the storm but do not ever give up. We at rescue never give up on a dog. We know that a dog is a living being, with a spirit and a heart and feelings. Our dogs are not commodities, things, or garbage. They are part of lifes sacred creation and they deserve as much love and care and respect as Lassie, Rin Tin Tin or Toto. So please, please do not come to rescue in the hopes of getting a "bargain" or "a fully trained dog". Come to Rescue to give, to love, to save a life -- and to mend your own spirit. For Rescue will reward you in ways you never thought possible. We can promise you this -- a rescue dog will make you a better person.
