Hazelnut - Chihuahua Dog for Adoption in Jackson, Missouri

Meet Hazelnut!

This handsome 7-year-old Chihuahua is ready to find a family to call his own! Hazelnut came to Mac's Mission after his owner passed away. When the family was unable to keep him, they reached out to us to make sure he had somewhere safe to land.

Hazelnut is settling into foster life beautifully! He's a sweet little shadow who loves following his person around and being right at their feet. If you're looking for a loyal companion, this boy is happy to fill that role! He absolutely loves to snuggle and gets along well with the other dogs in his foster home.

Hazelnut also recently had his dental completed on 10/21/2026, so he's ready to focus on the important things in life: loving his people, cozy naps, and finding the perfect spot beside you.

He's already showing us what a wonderful little companion he can be. Now he just needs someone to make his happily ever after official. Could that be you?
