Hazel, a sweet and gentle three-year-old dog, was tragically attacked by two unleashed pit bulls while out on a walk with one of her owners.  During the unprovoked attack, one of the dogs bit Hazel’s back right leg before both began mauling her stomach.  She was rushed to the animal hospital, where she underwent a critical three-hour surgery to repair the damage.  Hazel suffered multiple torn muscles, required a surgical drain, and received over 50 stitches.  Known for her shy nature, Hazel slowly warms up to new friends—with a few sniffs and a treat or two, she’ll happily claim you as her best buddy.  Her love is unmistakable: when excited, she gently nibbles on your nose and ears, and her tail wags so fiercely it turns into a little fan.  Now, Hazel is in urgent need of support during her long road to recovery.  Her family is reaching out to the community to help cover the extensive medical bills and give this lovable girl the healing and comfort she deserves.
