Meet Ashtin, the little bundle of joy who’s proof that big personalities come in small packages!
This 1-year-old Pitbull Terrier may have started his journey in an abandoned house near the Watermark Apartments, but those days are far behind him. When a kind-hearted stranger found Ashtin, he was a bit timid, but his friendly nature quickly shone through. Now, after settling into shelter life, Ashtin has blossomed into the happiest little guy you’ll ever meet.
At just 35 pounds, he’s the perfect pint-sized pup, but don’t let his small stature fool you—this boy can move! Out in the play yard, Ashtin is all about those zoomies, chasing tennis balls, and showing off his impressive leaping skills. He’s even mastered “sit” and is always eager to learn more (especially if treats are involved).
Heartworm negative and full of love, Ashtin is ready to bring his joyful energy to a forever family. Could your home be the one where his tail never stops wagging?

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.
