Meet Otter! Your New Cuddle Buddy, Walking Partner, and Favorite Conversationalist. Otter’s story began on October 25th, when this 2-year-old terrier/pit bull mix was found on the side of the road in Saucier with no collar, tags, or microchip. Though no one came forward to claim her, she hasn’t let that dim her bright spirit. Now she’s safe at HSSM, and it’s our mission to help her find the loving forever home she’s been waiting for. From the moment you meet her, Otter’s charming personality shines. She’s wonderfully talkative—the kind of pup who always has something to say, whether she’s asking for pets, sharing her excitement, or giving you her adorable commentary on life. Her little vocalizations are never demanding—just sweet, silly reminders that she wants to be part of whatever you’re doing. Otter has a refreshing, joyful energy that follows her everywhere. In the yard, she’s all about romping, running, and chasing tennis balls with pure enthusiasm. But she’s just as content to settle in for a cuddle session, curling up right beside you for some cozy one-on-one time. And when it’s time for a walk? She moves with grace, always walking politely on her leash and making every stroll an easy, peaceful outing. While Otter loves people with her whole heart, she does prefer to be in a home without feline friends. She’s happiest with humans and canine companions only, and she’ll thrive in a home that appreciates her affectionate nature and fun, expressive personality. When it comes to health, Otter is a shining star. She’s up to date on vaccines, already spayed, microchipped, and heartworm negative—ready to walk out the door and start life with her new family right away. If you’re searching for a sweet, spirited, and wonderfully talkative new furry friend to fill your home with love and laughter, Otter is your girl. So what are you waiting for? Come on down to HSSM and meet her today!
