APOLLO - AMERICAN PIT BULL TERRIER / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: American Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed (short coat). Snuggle Buddy with a Heart of Gold Meet Apollo! This sweet, sensitive boy is happiest when he’s with his people. At home, Apollo enjoys relaxing in his crate, playing fetch with his toys, plotting new ways to get more peanut butter, and snuggling up as close as possible to his favorite humans. His daily puppy kisses are a constant reminder of just how much love he has to give! Apollo greets visitors with a big smile and enthusiastic puppy jumps—his foster parents are helping him learn that paws belong on the floor. He’s always excited to make new friends and even loves helping his two-legged cousin build with Legos! The outside world can still feel a bit overwhelming for Apollo. Sudden noises in particular can be scary, and when that happens, he’ll scoot close for comfort and reassurance. With slow, gentle introductions, he warms up quickly—soon enough, the kisses come out and he’s ready to bond. Apollo is currently living as an only pup, but we believe he would thrive with a calm, friendly dog companion who can help show him the ropes and build his confidence. He’s eager to learn and ready for training! He already has a solid "Sit" and knows how to wait in his crate for his suppertime. Apollo will go to his forever home with a gift certificate for a local positive reinforcement trainer to help him continue to make progress.
