Story

Name: Caruso Age: 4 months (DOB 9/22/2025) Breed: Lab/Cattle Dog Mix Size: 24 pounds currently (expected 50lb+) Special Needs: confident adopters. Caruso is going to take more work than a normal puppy to integrate into a new house. Adoption Application: https://forms.gle/nuKXoMu6gjS5DhFm8 Contact: transport@hssm.org Caruso has a story not that uncommon among many dogs in South Mississippi. Him and his siblings were part of an "accidental litter" to a female that was not spayed. His human parents loved them with all their might and tried to find them homes but unfortunately were unsuccessful. When they came to HSSM they were scared, unsocialized puppies already 20-35 pounds at just 3.5 months. HSSM staff has been hard at work helping them overcome their "stranger danger" and socializing them with people and other dogs. Due to Caruso's less than ideal start, he will take someone who will be patient with him as he grows and learns to trust new people. Once he warms up, though, he is an energetic puppy who loves to run and play. With a little bit of time and patience we are sure he'd grow into an amazing companion! Caruso's $250 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 Caruso please fill out our online application here: https://forms.gle/nuKXoMu6gjS5DhFm8 . A staff member will reach out if your application is approved to discuss the adoption process. 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.

Story

Name: Hayden Age: 2 years Breed: Catahoula Leopard Dog Size: 35 lbs Special Needs: Heartworm positive. Will need treatment. Adoption Application: https://forms.gle/nuKXoMu6gjS5DhFm8 Contact: transport@hssm.org Meet Hayden, a 2-year-old Catahoula Leopard Dog with striking looks and a lively, loyal spirit. Found as a stray in Long Beach Mississippi he was brought to the Humane Society of South Mississippi. He’s smart, alert, and loves having a job to do — whether that’s exploring the outdoors, playing with purpose, or learning something new. He did seem a little reserved and shy at first, but with a little time and meeting new people he has become more comfortable with his surroundings and has opened up a bit. Hayden thrives on activity and engagement, making him a great match for an adopter who enjoys adventure and understands working-breed energy. He bonds closely with his people and brings both enthusiasm and devotion to the relationship. He does fine around other dogs. He is a little unsure at first but once he has a few minutes to warm up he starts to run around and play with the other dog. If you’re looking for a bright, athletic companion with personality and drive, Hayden is ready to put his heart to work for his forever family. Hayden is up to date on vaccines and prevention. He will be neutered upon adoption and even though he has tested positive for heartworms we have no doubt that with proper treatment he can live out the rest of his long life happy and healthy. Hayden'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.

Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Name: Becca Age: 9 months Breed: Dutch Shepherd mix Size: 41 lbs Adoption Application: https://forms.gle/nuKXoMu6gjS5DhFm8 Contact: transport@hssm.org Becca is all puppy, all heart, and all energy—at 9 months old, she’s ready to turn your home into her playground! This spirited little firecracker loves to play rough (Shephard chompies), explore, and keep everyone on their toes. She’s eager to please and incredibly smart, so with consistent guidance and training, she’ll shine. Her puppy enthusiasm comes with a side of rough-and-tumble play, so Becca would do best in a home without younger kids and with someone ready to help channel her high-energy antics. She listens well to corrections and thrives when given structure, exercise, and a friend (human or canine!) to run off some of that endless energy. Becca is happiest when she’s part of the action—chasing a ball, zooming through the yard, or exploring new adventures with her favorite people. If your family is ready for a lively, loving, and endlessly entertaining pup, Becca is ready to make your house her happy chaos! Becca is up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative, and already spayed. Becca'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.

Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Name: Ariella Age: 3 years Breed: Cattle dog/Terrier mix Size: 61 pounds Adoption Application: https://forms.gle/nuKXoMu6gjS5DhFm8 Contact: transport@hssm.org Ariella is a stunning terrier heeler mix who is fully grown at three years old and full of personality. She is believed to be potty trained and has already proven she knows how to live in a home. Ariella does great with other dogs and older kids, making her an easy and enjoyable companion. Her previous family loved her but sadly could not keep her due to her medium size. Ariella’s biggest flaw is that she is a little too affectionate — she’s a proud hugger and an enthusiastic kisser who loves being close to her people. She also has a serious love for water and is always ready to splash, play, or dive into fun whenever she gets the chance. Sweet, social, and full of charm, Ariella is ready to bring joy, laughter, and lots of love to a family lucky enough to call her their own. She is up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative, and already spayed. Ariella'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.
