Apollo is a large, strong, seemingly calm, mild mannered young adult Rottweiler. He is currently about 90lbs but needs to gain some weight. Apollo is a little hesitant when first meeting new people, but showed absolutely no aggression when strangers cornered him to put a leash on him or when they were touching him all over. So far, he has been fine with all of the dogs he has come in contact with. Apollo does seem to know a few basic commands, but does need work on a leash. Apollo will be neutered and fully vetted before adoption.
Applications are the first step in the adoption process. Please do not call or email simply to express interest. We are all volunteers and receiving your application saves us time and helps to determine the best match for both people and dogs.
We provide as much information as we currently have on each dog in their description. For questions on the adoption process, including fees, please review the Adoption page. If you have additional questions or are interested in adopting, please fill out an adoption application. Once we receive your application someone will be in touch to answer your questions.
We do not arrange visits to meet dogs without an application. If you'd like to meet a variety of dogs without filling out an application please attend one of our events, listed under the events link.
Thank you!
