Meet Jelly!
Sweet like her name and just as irresistible, Jelly is an 11-month-old Border Collie mix who’s ready to spread some joy. She’s heartworm negative, friendly with other dogs, and full of that signature Border Collie energy and intelligence.

Jelly is lightning fast and would make an incredible working partner or sport dog, but she doesn’t have to be — she’s just as happy being your best friend at home. She already knows how to sit, loves treats, and is at the perfect age for training and bonding.

True to her Border Collie roots, Jelly is eager to please, quick to learn, and always ready for the next adventure. She’s outgoing, affectionate, and has a big, happy smile that wins everyone over.

If you’re looking for a smart, loyal, and loving young dog who’s as sweet as Jelly sounds, come meet her — she might just be the perfect fit for you.

More about this shelter

The Humane Society of South Mississippi (HSSM) is the largest animal welfare organization in the state of Mississippi. HSSM’s facility was built using the nation’s leading Children’s Museums as models, with bright colors and oversized architectural sculptures. We offer: pet adoptions, foster program, return-to-owner efforts, spay/neuter and wellness services, volunteer program, pet transports, youth initiatives, a food pantry and pet retention program, an on-site thrift store, and more! In 2024, HSSM cared for over 5,000 homeless pets in house and touched over 16,000 animals in the community.

Since our incorporation in 1952, HSSM has been committed to ending pet overpopulation on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. HSSM is the only Open Admissions Animal Shelter in South Mississippi, meaning we accept all animals in need, regardless of age, breed, health, or temperament. This commitment ensures that no lost pet is turned away. Oftentimes our open-admissions status in a community with a disproportionately high number of homeless pets leads to needless euthanasia of adoptable pets in our shelter HSSM has vowed to change this.
