A little extra support can make a big difference. 🐾

Southern Miss therapy dogs like Blaze help bring comfort, connection, and plenty of smiles to students across campus.

Their presence at campus events and activities is one of the many ways Golden Eagles can feel supported as they adjust to college life and become part of the Southern Miss community.
