My story

If you’re looking for the total package, look no further than Diesel. This one-year-old terrier mix has the biggest heart and the best manners you could ever imagine. He’s sweet, smart, and an absolute joy to be around. Diesel came into the care of HSSM on June 4, 2025, after being sadly surrendered by his previous owner, through no fault of his own. Since then, he`s been patiently waiting to show someone just how special he is. And believe us, he is special. This handsome boy is perfection on four paws. He learns new commands faster than you can say “good boy” and shows them off with pride, especially his flawless sit. Diesel even gives “paw” when meeting new people, like he’s shaking hands to say, “Nice to meet you.” He’s a social butterfly who adores making new friends! Humans and fellow pups alike, big or small. His favorite things in the world? Treats (of course), squeaky toys, and showing off his adorable head tilts. Whether he’s training or just getting a little love, Diesel’s wiggles and award-worthy charm light up the room. Diesel is fully vetted, up to date on vaccines, and will be neutered upon adoption if not already. While he is heartworm positive, don’t let that scare you away. HSSM offers discounted treatment options and payment plans to make sure every pup gets the care they deserve without adding stress to your wallet. So what are you waiting for? Come meet Diesel at HSSM today and let him steal your heart. He just might be the best friend you`ve been searching for.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Diesel, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
