Meet Stefan! This sweet boy was surrendered to our shelter because his owner could no longer care for him. The shelter environment is quite overwhelming for him, but he loves making new friends and will crawl into your lap for affection. Stefan is not quite six months old and still learning the ropes of puppy life. He'll thrive in a home that will spend time with him and make him a special part of the family. All young pups will benefit from consistent training to help them grow into stellar adult canines. If you'd like to meet Stefan and consider giving him the forever home he's always deserved, stop in and ask to meet him today!
Stefan is up to date on vaccinations, microchipped, and will be neutered prior to adoption.
We are the Humane Society of South Mississippi (HSSM), a progressive animal welfare organization located in Gulfport, MS. Each year HSSM houses approximately 10,000 homeless pets. Every day we are fighting a space capacity crisis as we try to care for the overwhelming amount of abandoned local pets. Please consider visiting our shelter to adopt your next best friend. If you have a question about one of our adoptable animals, please give us a call at (228) 863-3354, email adoptions@hssm.org or stop by from 10am-4pm Tuesday-Saturday. We are located at 2615 25th Ave in Gulfport, MS.

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.
