My story

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

Name: Kasen
Age: 1 year
Breed: Terrier mix
Size: 61 lbs
Adoption Application: https://forms.gle/nuKXoMu6gjS5DhFm8
Contact: transport@hssm.org

Kasen is a 1-year-old Terrier mix with a lively personality and a heart full of love. This young pup is full of playful energy and enjoys making the most out of every moment, whether he’s exploring his surroundings, playing with toys, or soaking up attention from his favorite people. He’s at a wonderful age where his personality is shining while he’s still eager to learn and bond with his family.

Kasen would thrive in a home that can provide regular activity, enrichment, and guidance as he continues to grow into a well-rounded companion. He would also do well in a home that already has other dogs since he loves to run around a play in our weekly playgroups. With his friendly nature and playful spirit, he has all the makings of a loyal best friend who will bring plenty of smiles and excitement to his future home.

If you’re looking for a fun, affectionate dog who’s ready to be part of your daily adventures, Kasen is waiting to meet you.

Kasen's $300 adoption fee includes spay/neuter, up to date vaccines, microchip AND transport fee to a location near you. We currently have transportation to CT, MD, NJ, NY, PA, VA, GA, and TN. Please email transport@hssm.org for more information on transports!

--> If you are interested in adopting Kasen please fill out our online application here: (https://forms.gle/nuKXoMu6gjS5DhFm8 - Dog). A staff member will reach out if your application is approved to discuss the adoption process. No fenced in yard required, and YES - we adopt to families with children! The adoption will not be final until the adoption contract is discussed and signed. Transports are arranged for specific dates, typically within 1-3 weeks of approving your application. Adopters will meet at a designated meeting spot to pick up their new companions. For further information, please first fill out the application referenced above.

**Due to import regulations we are not able to adopt to MA or RI residents at this time.

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.
