Meet Lily! 🐅 (tiger lily, get it 😉)
This gorgeous brindle girl is settling into foster life and showing us every day what an incredible girl she truly is. Shes more than just beauty— she’s brains, too!
Lily is potty trained, crate trained and dog friendly! Shes a real gem 💎
If you know Great Danes, you know ‘Velcro’ Danes, and boy does Lily wear that title proudly. She doesn’t just want to be near you… she wants to be on you. Obviously she thinks she’s much smaller than she is 😂
She’ll follow you everywhere with her gentle and loving presence. She enjoys sniffing and exploring and hasn’t shown any interest in getting into mischief so far —fortunately! lol
She’s also wonderfully easygoing — doorbells and normal household noises don’t bother her at all. The only thing she’s not sure about? The vacuum (honestly, same, girl).
Lily will be ready for her forever home soon! If you’re interested in potentially meeting Lily, please email us at countryacresrescuesc@gmail.com
King is a new resident of Country Acres. He was set to be euthanized at the shelter because he was extremely fearful of men; we’ve yet to find that extreme fear since he’s been with us. He’s such a gentle giant and he’d be a great addition to any family. He is scheduled for neuter and up to date on all vaccines.
Showing signs of being both dog and cat friendly.
Amazing on a leash.
Thinks he’s a lapdog.
Loves all the affection!
Knows “no” and “stay.”
Loves lounging around.
Needs to gain some weight. Will require food and water bowl stand no less than 15 inches high.
Adoption fee: $175

Whitney was used for breeding and then dumped behind a church in Charlotte. She was severely emaciated and had puppies within four weeks of being dumped. Poor girl was trapped by ACC and rescued by Country Acres. She came out of the shelter sweet as can be. Two hours post shelter freedom, she was rushed to the ER vet suffering from GDV. Surgery was performed and she was discharged from the ER 24 hours ahead of schedule due to her incredible resilience. Whitney has not been interested in other dogs, and appears dog friendly. She is a large gal and needs to gain some healthy weight. She is working through separation anxiety at her current foster home; but how can we blame her? She was used and abused and then dumped like trash. Can you show her that humans aren’t all bad and they can truly love a dog FOREVER? Adopt Whitney!

Meet Cody
1 year old | Carolina Dog | Female | 47 lbs
Charlotte, NC
-Up-to-date on vaccines
-Heartworm negative
Spay scheduled for February. She can go to a foster-to-adopt home anytime before spay. :)
In mid-July, Cody’s journey began when the owner of Dogs All Day found her living in the wild: malnourished, terrified, and fighting to survive. It took four months of consistent feeding, patience, and trust-building before she could finally be safely caught. Since then, Cody has made an incredible transformation.
She is fully vetted and fostered at Dogs All Day in Charlotte, NC, Cody has adjusted to a structured daycare and boarding environment. With slow, thoughtful introductions, she has successfully joined full-day play groups and continues to gain confidence every day. She is crate trained, dog-social with proper introductions, and thrives in routines that offer clear expectations and consistency.
Cody can be a little skeptical of new things at first which is completely understandable for a dog who once had to survive on her own but once she feels safe, her personality truly shines. She has opened up tremendously and continues to show how resilient and adaptable she is. She’s also very intelligent and picks up on routines quickly, so continued training should come easily with consistency and positive reinforcement.
We’d recommend a single-dog home, or a home with adopters who are experienced in proper introductions and committed to following the 3-3-3 rule to set everyone up for success. Cody would do best in a house with a fenced yard, where she can continue building confidence in a calm, supportive environment.
A big bonus: Cody is already settled and comfortable in a daycare and boarding setting at Dogs All Day, giving her future family an easy, familiar option for daycare days or travel needs! This is something many adopted dogs need time to adjust to, but Cody already has down.
Cody has come so far, and now she’s ready for the final piece of her journey, a forever home of her own.

About Me
My name is Chilly, and I was rescued during the snow storm with 7 of my siblings. Overall, I’m pretty chill for a puppy. If my human is busy, I’ll play with my toys by myself.
Training & Manners
Crate trained: Yes! And I sleep through the night.

I think Chilly would be a good fit for a house with an older dog or as the lone wolf of the house. He loves to snuggle with a human or in a cuddle puddle with other dogs. He is still a puppy and will need some additional training, but I promise he’s wicked smart and learns very quickly.
Why You’ll Love Me
This sweet 5‑month‑old pup is the total package. He’s already crate trained and potty trained, so the hardest part is done! Though he’s a little shy at first, he’s quickly coming out of his shell and showing his fun, playful personality, especially when he’s playing bitey‑face with other dogs. He’s incredibly smart, adapts quickly, and is eager to learn. Once he trusts you, he becomes the most loyal little cuddle buddy. He’s the perfect mix of playful puppy and loving companion, just waiting for his forever home. Plus he has the best eyeliner

If you’re looking for a loyal shadow, a couch companion, and a soft-hearted best friend, Milo might be your guy!

Weight: 76 lbs
Gender: Female
About Me: Chula
Chula spent most of her life living outdoors, which can be especially challenging for a hairless breed in colder climates. Despite that, she is a smart, lovable, and curious 4-year-old who has quickly embraced indoor life and loves being treated like the princess she is. She enjoys walks, playing fetch indoors, and cuddling up with her stuffed animals. Chula also loves other dogs and is very impressionable—she’ll happily follow their lead, no matter their size! She is generally tolerant with other dogs, though she does display resource guarding with food, so meals and treats should be given separately and supervised.
Training & Manners
Crate trained: Yes
Potty trained: Yes
Leash trained: Yes
Basic commands: Working on it
Good With
• Dogs: Yes
• Cats: Unknown
• Kids: Yes - Older Kids
Ideal Home
Chula would thrive in a home with an active individual or family who enjoys walks and spending time outdoors. She would do well either with other dogs or as the only pet, but she truly enjoys canine companionship. A fenced yard would be a bonus, but it’s not required since she is well accustomed to going to the bathroom on walks. Because she is hairless, Chula must be an indoor dog and cannot live outside. Her ideal owner will understand and be committed to caring for her beautiful but delicate skin.
Why You’ll Love Me
Chula came into rescue shy and unsure of indoor life, with caked-up skin from her time outdoors. She quickly discovered her love for comfort and care and has since blossomed into a true little spa queen. Now, she’s a devoted couch potato who would love nothing more than to snuggle up with her forever person.
