Story
My name should have been Happy because I am the happiest boy. But the name Lucky, also, fits because I am Lucky now to have been rescued. I am about a five year old or older Chihuahua. I was abandoned in a place with about 7 other Chihuahuas. You can guess what the place looked and smelled after we were left there for a long time. Some of the other Chi’s were eating through the walls to get out. We were rescued and taken to the shelter. I think my siblings and I were so glad to be out of the place where we were left. The shelter said we all had great dispositions. My tail has not stopped wagging since I came to my foster home. I do have some tremors but the humans are not sure why. All of us left behind were very malnourished which could attribute to my issues. My hip bones are showing and I am really skinny. But rest assure I am being fed now and will fatten up just fine. I do bump into things on occasion but I don’t let the stop me. I run, I play and I ask for attention. I have a funny little gait as well. Again this could come from being so happy or being so malnourished. Again it does not stop me from doing all the doggy things I need to do. So far I get along with other dogs. I am starting to play with another dog about my size. I am just learning to play with toys. I pick the toys up and am so happy but then not sure what to do. I am watching the others dogs so I am sure I will catch on. I get along with all sizes of dogs as long as they are nice to me. I am not perfectly housebroken but will wear a belly band and it is usually dry when I get outside to use the potty. Not being housebroken may have to do with not being neutered and from being inside for a long time. I will be neutered in November so I am given a chance to put on weight and get stronger. I am starting to go into a crate when I need to. I do not always want to be crated but it is safe. I love to eat and have treats. I love to be outside with my human and doggy friends. I am learning to walk on a leash. It took me two days to learn my foster home’s routine so I am smart. I can be a bit fearful in a new situation but once I am comfortable, I am wide open. I will just cower when I feel unsafe. As long as folks give me time I will come around. I do love being held. I go nonstop and so does that tail of mine. I am happy to be in a safe and clean spot. If you have a spot in your house I can be safe in let us know. I would love a forever family that I can be loved and cared for. Please complete an application at safeanimalhaven.org if interested in giving Lucky a forever home!November 5, 2024, 12:12 am

Story
If you're looking for a little dog with a big personality, Bast, a possible Italian Greyhound mix, could be your perfect match! At 2 years old, this adorable pup may be small in size, but he's big on love once he trusts you. Bast came to us from a hoarding situation, so he’s had a tough start in life, but with patience and kindness, he’s blossomed into a sweet and cuddly companion. Bast is crate trained, and house trained, and he loves his crate – it’s his safe space where he can relax and recharge. He’s a quiet, independent little guy who enjoys a good cuddle, but he’s also content to entertain himself in his crate for hours when he needs a break. While he’s still nervous in new situations, once Bast gets to know and trust you, he’ll be your loyal lapdog, always ready for snuggles and affection. Due to his shy personality and needing above average time to get comfortable with new people, Bast does require a fenced in yard and would not be a candidate for apartment type living Bast thrives in a calm, stable environment with another dog to show him the ropes and help him feel safe. He does best in a home with a fenced-in yard, as he needs a secure place to run and play. He’s athletic and active for his size and would make a great running or hiking companion for someone who enjoys outdoor adventures. While Bast is great with the larger dogs in his foster home, he’s not comfortable with young children (under 14) and would prefer a quieter household where he can feel secure. He hasn't been around cats yet, but we suspect he would do fine with them. Bast will take some extra time to warm up to new people, but once you’ve earned his trust, he’ll shower you with love and devotion. If you’re looking for a sweet, little dog who is both independent and affectionate, Bast could be the perfect fit for your home! If you are interested in adopting Bast, 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 17, 2024, 10:50 am

Lola

Chihuahua

Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
When Lola came into the rescue, she was a hefty 12 lb chihuahua. Her former owner became ill and could no longer care for her. She is spayed, current on vaccines, and preventions.  Lola is looking for a foster/adopter who is committed to helping her lose weight and getting her socialized.  Ideally, this would involve hand feeding so that she can start to build a bond with her foster/adopter. Since coming into rescue, she has lost some weight and is becoming more active.  We have learned that Lola will play with your feet and that she is a huge fan of pizza crust.  She loves her doggy bed, too! She is pee pad trained and goes to the door to poop - but won’t go outside - and prefers to use the peepad.  This girl is slow to warm up but does want to be loved. She likes attention and even talks back when talked to. She is head shy, so if you go towards her with your hand, she lets you know that she does not like that and will use her teeth. It will take a special foster/adopter who is willing to work through this issue with her.  An ideal home for her would be an adult only home.  She is dog friendly.November 6, 2024, 9:04 am
