A Tribute to Hazel

Vanessa, my Sister-in-Law, recently lost her friend.

Hazel was a a feisty, excitable and loving pitbull mix.

I’ll always cherish this pair of photos I took of Hazel (the one with her nose in the camera). In them, she was accompanied by Vanessa and her other dog, Xena, during a day in the park.

Hazel just can't get enough attention and love.

    Sorry for the loss. Our dogs are our kids and we love them that way.

    Hazel looks happy, like a dog who knew how loved she was.

      Thanks for your kind words Erik. Hazel sure was a happy dog who basked in attention and love. You couldn’t even be in the same house as her without her running over, tail wagging, sometimes jumping, hoping that she would get pet.
