Description:
Meet Apollo, the handsome frosted face German Shepherd. Apollo came to the Shelter after his previous guardian was unable to continue caring for him due to her medical needs. His previous guardian reports that, despite his large size, Apollo likes to sits on laps. His favorite activities are playing and running. Apollo does walk on leash but pulls fairly strongly. The property Apollo lived at previously had outdoor cats who Apollo coexisted with. Apollo previously spent the majority of his time outdoors. He may do well in a home environment where he has easy access outside to a securely fenced in yard via a doggy door or a similar set up and can come in at night. As long as you have some tennis balls and a good throwing arm, Apollo will be a happy camper. He came to the Shelter with his friend Eddie (A328562) who is also up for adoption. Eddie and Apollo could go to an adoptive home together for someone looking for a duo but is not required to be adopted with Eddie. Although he enjoys the company of that dog, he is a bit selective about other canine friends (outside of his buddy Eddie). He may enjoy being the only dog in his next home and soaking up all of your love. If you are a German Shepherd savvy adopter looking for a dog to be the apple of your eye, come meet Apollo today!The Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter Foundation is now offering âPawsitivity Bucksâ with every dog adoption.
