They are waiting with paws crossed! Apply now! Meet Apollo, a sweet and mature Rottweiler with a gentle soul, estimated to be about 8 years young. Apollo has been thriving with his foster family: he is completely house trained and will politely go to the door when he needs to go outside. He is crate trained—just entice him with a treat—and is very quiet overnight, whether crated or left alone in the house. Apollo has also proven himself to be calm on a leash and doesn't jump up on people. He is non-reactive to strangers coming to the house and shows no resource guarding with his food, treats, or toys. Affectionate and loving, he enjoys laying his head on your lap for attention and will nudge your hand for more pets. This low-key gentleman isn't bothered by thunderstorms or the vacuum and prefers to spend his time napping on a comfortable bed, only venturing outside when necessary. He knows several commands—sit, leave it, and wait—and sits patiently for his food. While he barks at birds, Apollo is generally quiet and has done well during baths and nail trims. Apollo has been non-reactive to other dogs in his foster home, though his experience with cats is unknown. He is heartworm negative and up to date on vaccines. Apollo is seeking a loving home within North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, or within about six hours of Raleigh, NC. Ready to share your life with a calm, dignified companion?
