The SPCA has an adoption counseling process for adopters to learn adoption guidelines and adoption options.  Hi there! My name is Sia and I am oh so happy to meet you! I have a question to ask you. Can we be best friends?! YES?! Oh good, you just made me the happiest dog alive! I think it would be so fun if we went on walks together, played with some toys in the yard, and maybe you could give me some belly rubs. I promise I'll repay you with a lot of licks and love! I can't wait for you to take me to my forever home! Adopt me today and let's make this best friend thing official! I am full grown at ~53 lbs. *I have been diagnosed with heartworm disease and have begun treatment - please speak with an adoption specialist for details.* Cats/children? Unknown.  Dogs? Signs point to no!  Housetrained?  Unknown.  Training needs?  I need a little work.  Energy level? Medium-high.   How did I get here? Transferred from Cabarrus County Animal Shelter after being found as a stray. ~My adoption fee is $95.00.~Many adoptions will take approximately 1 hour or more.

Adoption requirements and tips
to speed up the adoption process: 

Please be able to provide a valid photo I.D. with your current address (If your I.D. does not reflect your current address, bring a piece of mail with your name and address on it)

Be able to prove that you are allowed to have a pet where you live (proof of home ownership or a copy of your rental lease including the specific pet policy)

Bring along all members of your household, including dogs for an introduction to a new dog. However, we do recommend meeting with an adoption counselor before involving children in the pet selection process. To avoid longer wait times, we strongly recommended that dog-to-dog meetings take place after 1:00pm.
