About Apollo

Meet Apollo, a lively and affectionate 6-month-old Australian Cattle Dog mix! Rescued from a local shelter where he felt overwhelmed and scared, he's now thriving in a foster home in Manassas, VA. With his playful spirit and sweet nature, Apollo has quickly learned commands like sit and down, plus what it means to wait patiently for his meals—all essential traits given his enthusiasm for food. Apollo gets along exceptionally well with other dogs and would benefit from having a playful dog sibling to boost his confidence. He’s still learning to trust new people, so while he may be timid at first, he quickly transforms into a devoted, velcro companion once he feels secure. His love for car rides and outings showcases his adventurous side, and he even enjoys lounging at dog-friendly spots with his foster parents. His ideal forever family will cherish an active lifestyle with plenty of opportunities for walks and outdoor adventures. Apollo will need humans who understand that building his confidence will take some time and patience. If you're looking for a loyal sidekick who thrives in a loving home, Apollo is waiting to meet you! What are you waiting for? Apply today!
