About Apollo

Meet Apollo! This handsome boy, believed to be a husky and shepherd mix, came from a life of neglect and is ready to find the love he deserves. He may initially be timid, so he needs someone who will give him time to feel safe and comfortable. Once he trusts you, you’ll discover the wonderful personality we’ve come to adore. Apollo has shown that he can get along well with other dogs, including smaller breeds like corgis. However, any introductions to dogs in his future home should still be approached with care. It’s important to note that he cannot live with cats due to his strong prey drive, which could present risks. This affectionate and gentle dog deserves a home that understands his needs and offers him the patience, care, and love he’s been missing. If you think you can be the right fit for him, reach out for a meet and greet today!
