Description
Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog (long coat). Adoption Fee: 450. Meet Apollo — the fluffy little sidekick you didn’t know you needed! At just about 4 months old (born around the beginning Feb) and around 25 pounds, Apollo is equal parts adorable, playful, and full of personality. With his soft long-haired coat, goofy puppy energy, and loyal “shadow” tendencies, he’s already proving he’s the total package. Apollo absolutely loves people and is happiest when he’s near his humans, whether that means following you from room to room, supervising your daily chores, or curling up nearby after playtime. He’s also having a blast with his foster dog siblings and would love a home with playful canine friends — though he’d likely do just fine soaking up all the attention himself, too! He lives in with a 5 year old child! Like any growing puppy, Apollo is still learning the ropes. He’s doing wonderfully with potty training, though he occasionally has a puppy accident here and there. He does great in his crate during mealtime, overnight, and while his humans are away. Bonus: this boy is VERY food motivated, which makes training fun and rewarding because he’s eager to learn and please. Apollo still has those classic puppy moments where excitement turns into a little mouthing, but he’s already making great progress and improving every day. With continued consistency, patience, and plenty of toys, he’s going to grow into an amazing companion. If you’re looking for a sweet, spunky, fluffy best friend who will keep you smiling, follow you everywhere, and fill your home with love and laughter, Apollo may just be your perfect match.

Overview:
The German Shepherd Dog, a truly iconic breed, originated in Germany in the late 19th century, primarily for herding sheep. They are easily recognizable by their athletic, medium-to-large build, typically weighing between 50-90 pounds, with a distinct double coat that can be black and tan, sable, or solid black. Known for their intelligence and loyalty, German Shepherds possess a remarkably trainable and courageous temperament, making them exceptional working dogs in fields like police and service work. While generally good with families when properly socialized, their high energy levels and need for mental stimulation make them unsuitable for apartment living without significant daily exercise. Prospective owners should be aware of common health concerns such as hip and elbow dysplasia, as well as degenerative myelopathy, underscoring the importance of responsible breeding and regular veterinary care.
