About Charlie and Apollo

Charlie and Apollo are a delightful pair of bonded dogs looking for a loving home together. At four years old, these Teddy Bears are a mix of Shih Tzu characteristics, with Charlie weighing 16 lbs and her brother Apollo at 23 lbs. Both are spayed and neutered, fully vaccinated, and groomed every six weeks. They get along well with older children and are eager to find a family where they can thrive together, rather than being crated for long hours. While they’re not overly familiar with cats, their personalities certainly shine among other dogs. Apollo has a chatty nature and tends to bark quite a bit, sharing his thoughts on life. These two love to snuggle, often sitting on your lap and enjoying quiet evenings watching TV. A home where they receive ample attention and companionship would make them truly happy. This duo is ready to be part of a family once again. Give them the love they deserve. Start the adoption process today!
