Meet Artoo!
Artoo is a sweet, well-mannered pup who’s ready to bring love and joy to his forever home.
He is literally the sweetest dog in the shelter right now! We think he would be the perfect family dog because he is great with kids, with other animals, and just an all-around great boy. This charming companion is housebroken, is well behaved, and has a gentle spirit that makes him a perfect fit for families of all shapes and sizes. He is a 4-yr old terrier black and brown color and coming in under 40 pounds he is the perfect medium size!

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.
