Super duper sweet, affectionate and people pleasing Apollo is absolute JOY wrapped in a gorgeous white fluffy coat. Apollo made instant friends when he came off the transport van last week.. his tail held high in curiosity he went from person to person greeting with wiggles and head nudges! Apollo and his sister Celia were both surrendered to a shelter in South Carolina for unknown reasons. Apollo does a really good job paving the road of confidence for Celia.. what a good bro! We do believe they will both be fine separating and do not have to go to the same home.
Apollo is much more self-reliant than his sissy. He is adventurous and upbeat.. loves to explore new places and make new friends! We aren't sure of Apollo's mix but we do think he is some sort of spitz breed which, in general, tend to be more on the independent side.. we mostly see Apollo's independence when out on walk. On the leash, Apollo is out in front and ready for action! He is certainly in need of some leash manners which he'll get more then enough of during his time here at Love Dogs!
What really struck us about Apollo was how affectionate he is! He true nature is kindness.. always. If you take a moment and sit with Apollo, as you'll see in the videos and pictures, all he wants if attention. He'll gently climb on your lap and just stare into your eyes.. he'll nudge you with his muzzle asking for more pets and guaranteed he'll be ready for a walk or adventure at any time!
So far we've seen Apollo get along pretty well with other dogs. In the yard , he loves prancing around and chasing toys.. check out the video below to see what Apollo does when he catches his toy! It's a quirky and hilarious way to play "fetch'!
Since he is brand new, we are still getting to know him! Stay tuned for updates and of course if you're interested in this sweet boy, fill out an app and come meet him!!
Handler Michelle's experience with Apollo! - "Today I had the pleasure of spending time with Apollo and Celia. These beautiful siblings are new to us here at Love Dogs so I had to take the time to introduce myself to them. Apollo was quick to warm up to me. He was curious and playful all while licking my face and pushing into me for more petting. His sister Celia was shy at first so I sat on the floor to give her time to warm up to me. I thought if I laid on the floor Celia may feel more comfortable. As soon as I lowered myself to the floor, Celia approached me with a bouncy playfulness. She laid by my side and began to give me the most gentle doggie kisses. While Celia and I shared a special moment, Apollo took this opportunity to push between us and lay his head directly on my face! I found this to be a sweet gesture and I laid back down and he did it again! These two wonderful pups gave me one of the most joyful afternoons. I am so thankful that they joined our rescue while waiting for their forever homes."
