Wendi

Senior dogs don’t ask for much—just love. And they give everything in return.<br/><br/>Wendi, a nearly 10-year-old Boston Terrier, has been through more than her fair share—but she’s come out the other side stronger, sweeter, and ready for the soft, loving retirement she’s always deserved.<br/><br/>She hasn’t had the easiest life and is still learning what it truly means to feel safe and cherished. Having only lived with women, she is understandably fearful of men and would thrive best in a calm, female-only (or very female-led) home that will move at her pace and let trust grow naturally.<br/><br/>Recently, this brave girl underwent surgeries to repair<br/>both knees<br/>—earning her the nickname “bionic girl”—and had a mass removed. The good news? She is recovering beautifully and feeling better each day. Her resilience is matched only by her gentle spirit. Wendi would prefer a home with little to no stairs, but loves when you carry her outside!<br/><br/>Now, she’s ready to focus on the good things in life such as a quiet companionship, cozy cuddle sessions and a peaceful home where she’s treated like a treasure she is!<br/><br/>She is doing<br/>well with both crate training but we will admit she is only pee pad trained<br/>, and she finds comfort in routine and consistency. She doesn’t need much—just patience, kindness, and someone who understands that senior dogs have the biggest hearts.<br/><br/>If you’re looking to open your home (and your lap) to a deserving senior who will repay you with quiet loyalty and endless snuggles, this sweet Boston girl may be your perfect match.<br/><br/>If you are interested in adopting Wendi, please submit an inquiry directly to Greater Charlotte SPCA by visiting charlottespca.org/adopt. The adoption amount is a suggested donation of $200 to $300 dollars based on the pet's age.<br/><br/>**Because our rescue is composed entirely of volunteers, local applications will take precedence. We will accept out of town applications, but any family is responsible for coming to Charlotte to complete a meet and greet. All out of town applicants will also have to be willing to drive to Charlotte to pick up the pet as soon as they are approved to adopt. **
