Meet Apollo Wesley

Introducing Apollo! You will be over the moon with this one! Just look at that face, full of wisdom & reported as the happiest dog ever! Life ain't nuttin' but a Partaay!! He is currently in the DASH Prison Training Program where he is brushing up on basic commands. He knows all his basics like sit, stay, down, wait & leave it. He will need to continue his training in his new home. He loves to greet everyone he meets with a smile & has never met a stranger!! He LOVES affection & attention, even over food sometimes! Apollo is leash trained (working on heel), loves to go on walks but will pull if he gets excited so he is learning a little impulse control! He loves to play & chase pretty much anything that moves,,,  His perfect home would have a fenced yard (but not a requirement) for him to run. His handler reports that Apollo "enjoys running 3+ miles at a time, about 10-12 miles a week"! They're an active pair. Life is merely a never-ending play session to him - but he will trade it for love-bug snuggle time too. He gets along with all people (especially loves the ladies!) and other dogs. In our prison program, Apollo is a good listener, especially for treats, and is learning quickly. He is potty trained, ok with his crate and working on those basic commands to enhance what is already a great dog.  He loves his chew bones and toys, especially his tug/rope toys!  He will try to claim them all with other dogs but not aggressively, though he does like to bark, holla & yell a lot to show he's the boss dog. He is different & very gentle with smaller dogs, must be that gray faced wisdom! He has not had exposure to cats while with us so a meet & greet would be in order. Apollo would like nothing more than a home & people that he can call his own. He would love to be out and about with you & show you what fun life can be!!
