CHARLOTTE, N.C. (QC Life) - Charlotte Animal Care and Control is currently at max capacity. In the past seven days alone, 113 dogs have been brought in, and since the beginning of the year, more than 1,500 dogs have entered the shelter.
That’s why fosters and even short-term staycations, especially for medium to large dogs are so important right now. Charlotte Animal Care and Control also has a low-cost vaccine and microchip event coming up.
