So didn't anyone else notice...
..that the dog named "Hazel" was continually referred to as "he"?

shareDefinitely was a male dog, and she seemed to always relate that way to Hazel. And, the dog was played by a male-named dog. Guess that clinches it, right?
shareI totally noticed, but I also owned a female dog named Jake, so I just smiled.
shareNames are not reserved for particular genders. Many names are used by men and women. Ex: Alex, Forest. I don't see why a Hazel can't fall in that category I have even seen a Jody who was a man. Why are you so hung up in the name sand gender issue? The point in the story is Carol's love for her dog.
shareHazel used to be a boys name.
shareDoesn't bug me. We have a female cat named Timmy. Or Timmah. (Cat just kind of started hanging around the place, now she's sort of ours, I guess. Kids thought she was a male cat and named her Timmy, and it stuck.)
I'm saying, it happens.
Hazel is a name for both sexes
