Story
Enzo is a one-year-old male American Staffordshire Terrier mix who has come a long way since arriving at the shelter. He came to us as nothing but skin and bones, but has made a remarkable recovery with lots of TLC from the shelter staff. So as you can imagine, he is a favorite around here. Enzo is a high energy dog that will need an active home. He is good with other dogs and is so playful. He’s been seen doing jump twirls while playing with his friends in the play yard because he is so excited. He also loves toys and treats which can make training him that much easier. He’s still just figuring everything out, but he sure is a good boy. If you’re looking for a goofball to take with you on new adventures, walks, runs, hikes or just to enjoy a new view, Enzo is down to be your new best friend!

Story
From the moment Emely saw other dogs in the play yard, she assumed the “let’s play” position inviting the others to “bring it on!” Obviously housebroken (although never guaranteed), she got about her business immediately once unleashed!!! A medium sized lady, Emely has a pretty cool disposition and would likely fair well in any home. Emely is a recent mom and gladly accepts affection and follows gentle petting with a sprinkle of the tiniest and sweetest kisses. She could surely be your Valentine! To top things off, Emely is heartworm negative, spayed and ready to come play with you today! Black dogs are often overlooked but don’t lose sight of this spectacular lady!Come adopt from the Humane Society of South Mississippi (HSSM), a progressive animal welfare organization located in Gulfport, MS. Each year HSSM houses approximately 7,000 homeless pets. Every day we are fighting a space capacity crisis as we try to care for the overwhelming amount of abandoned local pets.

Story
Meet Val, an 8-year-old lady with a heart as soft as her coat. Val was sadly abandoned outside the HSSM shelter this January, left to fend for herself. But despite that rough start, Val is a resilient and independent spirit. She waited patiently through the night until morning, when someone brought her inside, fed her, and gave her the warmth she desperately needed. Val isn’t one for seeking constant cuddles, but she’ll happily accept them when offered. She’s not the most playful with other dogs, preferring to do her own thing. What Val really dreams of is a cozy spot on a couch or a little dog bed by the sun, where she can spend her golden years in peace. She’s looking for a loving home where she can relax and enjoy her days, surrounded by quiet comfort and a kind heart to share it with. If you`re looking for a low-key, independent companion with a heart of gold, Val just might be the perfect match!
