Meet Hazel (aka “Pookie Girl”) — The Sweetest Soul with the Softest Eyes Hazel’s story is one of resilience and second chances. This beautiful red-nosed pitbull was heartbreakingly surrendered when her previous owner moved and chose not to take her along. She ended up on the euthanasia list at a high-kill shelter in Fort Worth, Texas but just moments before it was too late, POLAR Rescue stepped in and saved her life. Now Hazel is ready to find the forever family she’s always deserved. Hazel, lovingly called “Pookie Girl,” is as affectionate as they come. She has the softest, most soulful eyes that seem to understand exactly how you feel. She loves to cuddle close, give gentle kisses, and look deeply into your eyes as if to say, “I’ve got you.” She’s the perfect mix of playful and mellow, she’ll make you laugh one minute and melt into a snuggle puddle the next. Her favorite things? Cozy blankets, morning sunbathing sessions, and chilling to her favorite song — “NOKIA” by Drake — because, yes, she’s got great taste in music. Hazel is incredibly well-mannered. She never fights going into her kennel, politely waits for you to pet her head before she eats, and is wonderfully attuned to the mood of the room, a truly emotional and intuitive companion. Because her early socialization is unclear, Hazel would do best as an only pet. In her current foster home, she has shown she isn’t cat-friendly, and while she can get along with select dogs, she prefers slow introductions and steady routines. With six months of pack walks, controlled interactions, and training, she’s built a sweet friendship with her foster’s two beagles. Proof that with the right guidance, Hazel can form positive bonds. She just needs someone willing to continue the progress she’s already made. If you’re looking for a loyal, loving, and emotionally intelligent best friend who will fill your home with warmth (and your couch with cuddles), Hazel “Pookie Girl” is the one. &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143   To meet Hazel, please fill out an application!    Application available at https://www.pawsofloverescue.com/adoption-application.  Adoption donation includes spay/neuter, microchip, deworming, dhpp vaccinations, rabies shot, bordetella nose spray and any other necessary procedures prior to adoption.   Dallas/Ft.
