7 lovable pups to adopt now in Charlotte

Boots McGee is a charming male Shih Tzu dog in the care of Catering To Cats & Dogs, Inc.

Boots McGee loves other dogs. He has mastered his house-training etiquette. Boots McGee is already neutered, and he has had all his shots. Boots McGee is a special needs pet, so please inquire about his specific care requirements.

From Boots McGee's current caretaker:

We are pleased to introduce: Boots McGee! Boots is around 6-7 years old and he was surrendered to the rescue due to his severe allergies. His foster momma said that even though humans have failed him greatly, he is still a total lover and cuddle bug. Boots McGee is still playful for his age and is learning the art of playtime with his foster siblings. Boots McGee will require medical attention due to his severe allergies for the rest of his life—he will need to have a limited ingredient diet, weekly medicated baths and medication to keep his allergies under control. But look at this face—he deserves it all!

Berry is a female Lhasa Apso dog being cared for at Out of Harms Way.

Out of Harms Way thinks Berry will do best in a home without small children. She's been vaccinated and spayed. Good news: She's already house-trained. Berry is a special needs pet, so please inquire about her specific care requirements.

From Berry's current caretaker:

This gorgeous beauty with the long lashes is Berry! Berry is a very special girl looking for her forever home. She is 12 years old but still has plenty of energy and love to give. Berry loves basking in the sun or just relaxing on the couch for a cuddle. Berry is a puppy mill survivor so she needs a gentle, patient touch. She would do best in a quiet home with few, if any, other pets. Berry is in the "pre" state of Cushing's disease which is a non-terminal condition that is treated with medication twice a day. With regular vet care, she should lead a normal and healthy life.

Margo is a female pit bull terrier mix currently housed at South Of The Bully Rescue.

Margo is ready to make friends — she's happy to keep company with other dogs. She's been vaccinated and spayed. She is already house-trained.

Notes from Margo's caretakers:

Margo is a happy, bubbly, silly creature who is around 2.5 years old and about 50 pounds. She came to us from a horrific abuse case, but in true pittie fashion, she doesn't hold a grudge and is all about meeting new friends of all kinds. Margo is housebroken, crate trained and pretty good at just hanging out until it's time for the fun to begin. She'd like an active, adventure family, but she'd be ok with fun and interesting introverts as well. Margo is an all-around nice dog who's just hanging out waiting for her family to discover her.

Notes from River's caretakers:

River loves everything and everyone! She loves snuggling with her humans, sunning (belly up) on the deck, going for walks and plays with her toys. Thanks to her amazing foster family, River has come a long way. She is now a healthy, active young dog who now understands that food magically appears twice a day. River is looking for an active person who is committed to continue her training. She will do best in a home with another playful dog.
