My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Blanche — our very own Southern Belle!
At just 1 year old and 48 pounds, this lovely young lady carries herself with all the charm, glamor, and warmhearted sass of Blanche Devereaux herself. She’s a Golden Girl at heart—gracious, affectionate, and always ready to brighten your day.

Blanche has a wonderful temperament and makes friends wherever she goes. She does great with other dogs and loves older kids who can match her sweet, social energy. We haven’t tested her with younger children or cats yet, but her gentle nature suggests she’d adapt well with proper introductions.

This girl is the perfect blend of outgoing and cuddly—she’ll happily greet new people, then snuggle right up for love. She’s also a very clean girl, and while we aren’t sure if she’s fully potty trained, she’s smart and eager to please, so she’ll catch on quickly in a home routine.

Whether she’s leaning in for pets, prancing around like the confident queen she is, or giving you those soft, soulful eyes, Blanche is a dog who brings joy simply by being herself. She’s young, loving, and ready to find a family who appreciates her Golden Girl heart.

Bring Blanche home, and get ready for a lifetime of warmth, loyalty, and front-porch-swing moments worthy of the Golden Girls themselves.

Additional adoption info

HSSM is home to over 300 pets on any given day, most of which are looking for new forever homes! Your new best friend could be waiting at HSSM right now. Our beautiful, 41,000 square foot facility is currently open to the public. HSSM is open for adoptions Tuesday – Friday from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. and Saturday from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. No appointment is necessary to adopt, however, adoptions are first-come, first served. You must come to HSSM to complete your adoption and make sure you bring a photo ID, as it is required to complete adoption paperwork.
Our adoptable animals page is self-updating and displays ALL of HSSM’s adorable adoptable pets from “pocket pets” to birds and of course the hundreds of dogs and cats currently calling HSSM home! See one you like? Make sure you note your favorite’s name and animal ID number so that HSSM staff and volunteers can easily find him/her when you come in!
Adoptions are cut off every day about 30 minutes prior to closing and possibly earlier if volume is high. Weekends are busy and you may have to wait more than an hour (especially in the afternoons) so please be prepared.
