Here are the top stories in Southampton today:

1. Southampton area adoptable pets of the week. Meet Trooper, Joffrey, Hank and more. This week there are sweet dogs and pups , as well as beautiful cats up for adoption. Or you may consider fostering. Offering a needy animal a safe, comforting and supportive environment while she waits to be adopted, helps socialize a shelter pet to enhance her adoption potential.
