About Apollo One

Apollo One is a striking grayish and white Hound/Pit mix who came to the shelter in July 2026 at around 4 years old and weighing about 55-60 lbs. He is neutered, heartworm negative, and house-trained, making him a wonderful companion, especially for families with kids. Despite being with us twice now in the past two years, Apollo maintains a friendly and playful demeanor. Initially, he came to us at 2 years old when his owner lost her home. After finding a home for over a year, he returned in July 2026 due to some running issues. Apollo is good-natured and gets along well with some dogs, though it may take some time to find the right match. If you're looking for a loyal and loving dog, consider bringing Apollo One home!
