We need your help. Meet Phoebe, a one-year-old dachshund who has faced unimaginable challenges after being abandoned due to a dislocated hip. This sweet girl deserves a chance at a happy and normal life, but she requires urgent surgery to repair her injury.

SPCA of the Carolinas is committed to rehabilitating animals like Phoebe, but we are currently facing extraordinary demands on our medical fund. Our organization has recently taken on numerous dogs in our community and our resources are now critically depleted. Phoebe's surgery, scheduled for March 11th, will incur costs amounting to thousands of dollars, a financial burden that weighs heavily on our mission to provide care for vulnerable animals.

We humbly ask for your support to give this puppy dog the second chance she deserves. Any contribution, no matter how small, can make a significant impact on Phoebe's recovery. Your generosity will help us ensure that she receives the necessary medical attention and can eventually find a loving forever home. Together, we can make a difference in Phoebe's life and help her on the path to healing. Thank you for your compassion and support during this crucial time.

🌟 Coming soon to the Adoption floor… meet the adorable Oscar! 🌟 This little nugget is an eight-month-old, 4-pound male Shih Tzu who stole our hearts just in time for the holidays.

Oscar is now neutered, up-to-date on all his vaccines, and ready to find his forever family. Whether you’re looking for a cuddly companion or a playful sidekick, Oscar is eager to bring happiness to your home.

🌟 We think we’re on a roll! 🌟 Do y’all remember Ezekiel? The emaciated pit bull puppy that our Board President rescued from his tie-out in the frigid cold the day after Christmas? Well, take a moment to marvel at his transformation! Zeke is now healthy, happy, and, most importantly, ADOPTED! 🎉

This lovable pup is now living his best life, traveling across the country, soaking up sunshine on beaches, and hanging out with the coolest kids around. Honestly, Zeke, can I come along for the ride? ✈️🐾

I am thrilled to share that Zeke has found his forever family through a dear friend of our rescue group, which means we will still get to see him from time to time. This certainly eases the heartache a little bit! He captured our hearts— and occasionally our snacks— the moment we laid eyes on him. His journey is one of hope and restoration. 🌈

A heartfelt thank you to all of our supporters and adopters; we truly couldn’t do it without you. Together, we are making a difference! ❤️

Some may call it “tooting our own horn,” but I’m here to shout it from the rooftops: this rescue is putting in the WORK! Remember Phoenix? The emaciated poodle who came to us weighing just 22 pounds when he should have been tipping the scales between 65 and 70? Well, look at him NOW!

Phoenix has transformed into the most wonderful dog imaginable, and I couldn't be prouder that our rescue played a role in his journey. But the good news doesn't stop there—Phoenix has officially been adopted! He now has a loving family to call his own, complete with three kids who adore him and enjoy endless playtime. Look at his smile with them.

As I watched him leave, I couldn't help but shed some big ol’ crocodile tears, but they were tears of joy. From barely being able to stand to bounding through the snow with energy and spirit—Phoenix truly rose from the ashes! He reminds us all that love and dedication can change lives.

I love you, buddy! Now go make us proud and do big things!

Reminder, if you’ve got a dog stuck outside in this freezing weather, congratulations—you’re not just a dumb a$$hole, you’re a cruel one too. Bring your dog inside where it’s warm, or maybe go sit out there yourself and see how it feels. Be better, or don’t have a dog. 💯🐶

Meet Mack, the sweetest 2-year-old yellow lab looking for his forever home! This adorable pup is house and crate trained, so he’s ready to settle in with his new family without any fuss. Mack is up to date on all his shots and is neutered, making him the perfect candidate for adoption. ✨

Mack is full of energy and love, but there’s one thing this handsome boy needs: a furry friend to join him in his adventures! He thrives with another dog around and would really benefit from a home that has a companion for him to play with. He’s also a fan of having a fenced-in yard where he can run, explore, and soak up the sun.

If you’re an active family or person who can give Mack the time, love, and attention he deserves, he’s ready to be your loyal sidekick. He promises to fill your days with joy and a lot of tail wags! If you think you could be the right fit for Mack, don’t hesitate to email us at [email protected]

🌟✨ It’s Transformation Tuesday! Let’s take a moment to shine a spotlight on this absolute rockstar: Pheonix! 🐾❤️

Just a few months ago, Pheonix came to us from a local shelter, where he was rescued from an unimaginable situation. When he arrived, he had been abandoned in a crate in a deserted apartment after his owners were evicted. With a heartbreaking weight of only 22 pounds—he should be between 65-75 pounds—he was nothing but skin and bones, barely able to stand. 😢 But look at him now!

The journey of healing hasn’t been easy, but Pheonix's strength and resilience have completely transformed him. Today, he’s a stunning example of recovery, vitality, and love. Every day, he grows stronger and more confident, embracing life to the fullest! 🌈💪

And not only is Pheonix strikingly beautiful, but he also possesses the sweetest soul and the sharpest mind.🎉🥰 We’re so proud of the progress he’s made, and it melts our hearts to see him thrive.

As bittersweet as it is to think about his departure, the time is drawing near for him to spread his wings and find the forever family he so desperately deserves. ✈️💕 We will miss him dearly here at Wild Olive Ranch, and he will definitely take a piece of our hearts with him. But seeing him happy and loved in a forever home will be the happiest ending we could wish for!

If you’re interested in welcoming this amazing boy into your life, stay tuned! Pheonix is almost ready to embark on his next big adventure—finding a family who will cherish him as much as we do. 💖

Thank you for following his journey; it only gets better from here! Let's keep sharing love and hope for all animals in need. Together, we can make a difference! 🙌🌟

🐾✨ Meet our newest rescue star, Piper! ✨🐾 This little gal is about to steal your heart and make you laugh until your sides hurt! 😂💕

At just 1 year old and weighing in at a petite 4.5 pounds, Piper might seem like a tiny ball of fur, but trust us, she packs a punch of adorable charm! With the body of a baby fox 🦊 and the face of a bear cub 🐻, she’s the perfect blend of “aww” and “what the heck is that?!” It's like Mother Nature was having a giggle when she put this pint-sized wonder together! Seriously, Piper is the living embodiment of a fluffy teddy bear mixed with a sneaky little woodland creature—who can resist that face? 😍

Coming soon to the adoption floor, Piper is eager to find her forever home! Whether you need a cuddle buddy for chilly nights or a new partner in crime for mischief-making (she's got some serious waddle game!), Piper is ready to take on the world! Just imagine how much fun you’ll have trying to figure out if she’s more fox or bear—ultimate conversation starter for sure! 🥳👏

Spread the word about this little bundle of joy, and let’s find her the loving home she deserves! 🏠💖
