  • Here's how you can help:
    • Take a dog on a Staycation for a long weekend:  A Staycation is available to people who cannot commit to adopting a pet but want to help by taking a dog home for up to five days to give it a break from the shelter environment and provide it the benefits and experience of living in a loving home. Visit the CMPD Animal Care and Control shelter on Byrum Drive in Charlotte. Pick out an adoptable dog, show ID, sign a waiver, and take them home for up to five days.  
    • Foster a dog: Consider a longer-term foster assignment. Fostering reduces the long-term boarding of animals who can suffer from kennel stress which often leads to behavior issues. Foster-centric is a trending term that describes a new model for animal sheltering. It puts animals who are ready for adoption in homes in the community, leaving space at the shelter for the animals who need special care or management. Fill out an application online to foster.
    • Adopt:  If you have been thinking about adding a furry friend to your family, there is no better time than now.  Adopting one animal will save two lives: by saving the one you adopt and the one who takes its place. Details on the adoption process are online.  Visit CMPD Animal Care & Control this Saturday to adopt.
