Apollo

Meet Apollo, a truly handsome German Shepherd with a charming frosted face. Apollo found himself at the Shelter when his previous guardian could no longer care for him due to medical reasons. Despite his large size, he's a big softy who loves to sit on laps. His favorite pastimes include playing fetch with tennis balls and running, and he's also a great leash walker. Apollo previously coexisted peacefully with outdoor cats, suggesting he could do well in a home with feline friends.

German Shepherds are renowned for their intelligence, loyalty, and protective nature. They are energetic dogs that thrive on having a job to do, whether it's learning new commands or engaging in active play. Apollo's love for running and playing fetch aligns perfectly with the breed's need for consistent mental and physical stimulation. He is a bit selective with other dogs, preferring his buddy Eddie, so he might be happiest as the only canine companion, soaking up all the attention.

Apollo would flourish in an active home with a securely fenced yard, ideally with easy outdoor access like a doggy door, where he can expend his energy and come inside at night. He needs a German Shepherd-savvy adopter who understands the breed's needs for training, socialization, and plenty of exercise. If you're looking for a devoted companion to be the center of your world and are ready for an active lifestyle, come meet Apollo today!
