My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Hershey!

Hershey is an 8-month-old Kelpie/Retriever/Bully mix with the happiest personality and the most charming look. He has beautiful chocolate-colored, medium-length fur, adorable stand-up ears, and shorter legs that give him a compact, sturdy build. He currently weighs about 37 pounds.

Hershey absolutely loves everyone he meets, both people and other dogs, and seems to live in a constant state of happiness. Despite spending his early months in a shelter after being surrendered at just 4 months old, Hershey is thriving in foster care now that he finally has a chance to experience life outside the shelter.

He appears to be both house trained and crate trained, with no accidents so far. Hershey’s easygoing, joyful nature makes him a wonderful companion who is ready to soak up love, adventures, and a forever home where he can truly shine.

 

If you are interested in adopting Hershey, please submit an inquiry directly to Greater Charlotte SPCA by visiting charlottespca.org/adopt. The adoption amount is a suggested donation of $200 to $300 dollars based on the pet's age.  

**Because our rescue is composed entirely of volunteers, local applications will take precedence. We will accept out of town applications, but any family is responsible for coming to Charlotte to complete a meet and greet. All out of town applicants will also have to be willing to drive to Charlotte to pick up the pet as soon as they are approved to adopt. **

Additional adoption info

After you have found your new best friend, please read our adoption FAQ then submit our online adoption interest form at www.charlottespca.org/adopt

The Greater Charlotte SPCA does not own or operate a shelter facility. Volunteers foster all animals in their homes until adopted. Many of our animals come from high-kill shelters and other rescue situations. We find that fostering gives us the opportunity to assess the animal's personality and needs. This allows us to best match them with the right adoptive family. Also, we are able to provide all care and medical needs for our animals. It enables the animal to develop a happy frame of mind before adoption. We have many wonderful animals looking for a forever home.
