Story
Armani may be small, but she is mighty in personality and love. This adorable 11-year-old brown Chihuahua is the more outgoing half of her bonded duo with Emily. Armani is confident, expressive, and full of charm—she’ll gladly climb into your arms, settle into your lap, and make herself right at home in your heart. She loves being held, enjoys car rides, and is more than happy to be close to her people.   While Armani brings the sparkle, she also brings comfort to her best friend Emily. The two are deeply attached and draw security from each other. Armani leads the way and Emily follows with love and trust. They share a crate by choice, nap together, explore together, and fit perfectly side by side in your lap.   Armani and Emily are both crate trained, seem to be house-trained, and live politely with other dogs and cats (even those much bigger than they are!).   If you’re searching for a ready-made pair of loving lapdogs, Armani and Emily are a perfect match—two seniors who still have so much affection, companionship, and sweetness to give. Their bond is special, and they are looking for a forever home where they can stay together, just the way they’ve always been.     If you are interested in adopting Armani, 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. **  November 22, 2025, 9:43 am

Story
Emily is a gentle little soul with soft white fur and tan markings and the sweetest eyes you’ll ever see. At 11 years old, she’s a calm, affectionate companion who loves nothing more than curling up in a warm lap. Emily is the quieter and more reserved half of her bonded pair. She looks to her best friend Armani for confidence. When Armani is nearby (which is always!), Emily blossoms—following her lead and happily joining in whatever cozy adventure is happening, whether it’s cuddling on the couch or exploring the yard.   Emily and Armani are crate trained and even prefer to share a crate—there’s comfort in being together. They also ride beautifully in the car and seem to be reliably house-trained. Emily currently lives with other dogs and cats. She coexists peacefully with everyone—she’s especially respectful of the bigger dogs around her.   If you’re looking for a loving, calm, and gentle companion—Emily is your girl. But her truest joy comes from being with Armani. These lifelong best friends are a bonded pair and will be happiest continuing their journey together.     If you are interested in adopting Emily, 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.

Story
My foster email is: meghan.shew@yahoo.comMeet Shelby!Shelby is a resilient 10-year-old girl who’s been through a lot. After being left behind by her family of ten years, all alone in an empty apartment, she’s slowly learning that there are still kind people in the world. Once she trusts you, Shelby shows her gentle, loving side and becomes an easy, quiet companion to have around the home.Her favorite things in life are simple: long naps, rolling around in her cozy bed, and soaking up the sunshine. She’s low-maintenance, independent, and happiest just having somewhere soft and safe to call her own.A few notes about Shelby:Age: 10 years young and heartworm negativeHouse manners: 100% housetrained — she’s had zero accidents in foster care! Shelby doesn’t need to be crated and can be left out without any issues; she’s not destructive at all.Other pets: She hasn’t been around other dogs yet but isn’t reactive on leash; she also completely ignores the resident cat.Health: Shelby has some arthritis in her back legs and benefits from joint supplements, but she still gets around well. She’ll need ongoing support for her achy joints. She also has some cloudiness in her eyes — she can still see, but she prefers that hands don’t come directly over her head.Grooming: Shelby recently enjoyed a well-deserved spa day and did wonderfully for her bath! With a little TLC, her skin and coat are already improving, as she has some hair loss in a few spots.Personality: Shelby can be protective of her dog bed, but she’s making progress as she builds trust. She may growl or snap when she feels scared or unsure, so she’ll need a patient adopter who understands her boundaries and can give her space when she needs it. After just a few days in foster care, she’s already showing less of this behavior and starting to relax.Walks & play: Shelby doesn’t need long walks and isn’t into toys, but she loves lounging outside and taking in the fresh air. A fenced yard where she can safely sunbathe would be her dream.Car rides: She rides nicely and allows you to help her into the car, though she’s still learning to feel comfortable getting out — she’ll need an adopter who can continue to work with her on this.Shelby would thrive in a calm, kid-free home (no children under 15) with someone patient, gentle, and understanding — someone who will let her settle in at her own pace.
