Story
This very sweet 2 year old husky mix will steal your heart with one look into his eyes.  Lovo has lived his 2 short years outside and it shows, but we are healing his body and soul one belly rub at a time. He currently weighs 67 pounds, but should weigh about 75 pounds. He loves to eat so it should not take long to reach his goal weight. He is neutered and up to date on vaccines. Lovo is learning that crates aren’t so bad and that singing is only for special occasions. He’s been kept on a schedule and has had no accidents (so far) in his foster home. He loves other dogs and would love to have one to play with between belly rubs.   If you are interested in adopting Lovo, 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. **  January 11, 2026, 12:55 pm

Story
Meet River! Born around November 2024, River is a Shepherd mix with a stunning brindle coat and an equally beautiful personality. Playful, curious, and loving, he’s the kind of companion who’s always ready to make every day a little brighter. River enjoys toys, Kongs, walks, treats, and spending time with his dog friends. He loves being outside where he can explore, stretch his legs, and take in all the sights and sounds around him. He’s also known for his fun personality — if a toy squeaks or a treat bag rustles, River makes sure he doesn’t miss out on the action! He’s both house and crate trained, uses a dog door nicely, and has good manners around the home. River is friendly with other dogs and would love to have a playful companion or a family who enjoys including him in their activities. He walks well on leash, knows his basic commands, and is eager to learn new ones — he’s always ready to please and earn a “good boy!” River would be a wonderful fit for an active individual or family with older children. A fenced yard where he can play and explore would be a bonus, but he’ll be just as happy joining you for walks and adventures. Loyal, smart, and full of heart, River is ready to bring joy and love to his forever family. River is neutered, current on vaccines, and microchipped.
