Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hello, this is Apollo, an approximately 1.5 year old Caucasian Ovcharka, or Caucasian Shepherd/Mountain Dog, weighing almost 140lbs. -UNFORTUNATELY, ADOPT-A-PET DOES NOT OFFER THE BREED AS A CHOICE LISTING BUT THIS IS HIS ACTUAL BREED-
Apollo is wonderful to be around, and he mostly wants to sit or lay by your side like a handsome bear, when he isn't busy checking out the perimeter of your yard. He learns rapidly. Crate trained and completely house trained, he was neutered about 6 months ago and hasn't shown any aggression toward people. He happily meets strangers on walks or when they come to the house and are introduced. He was reportedly always great with the kids of his previous owners. Still, he seems to be developing into a true example of the breed, and this magnificent dog needs to go to a home that anticipates and understands the CO.
You'll need a well-fenced yard and he would like to be the only dog in the home. You'll need to be familiar with large guard dogs, and be dedicated to solid behavioral training. I expect you will be rewarded with the dog of your lifetime, honestly.
Apollo comes with his royal bearing and a lot of love to give!

"The Caucasian Mountain Dog is a rare breed that is a very large, muscular, powerful dog. It is assertive, strong-willed, and courageous. It's a loyal and fearless dog with the ability to protect the family. The Caucasian Mountain Dog's original purpose was to protect livestock. It makes a good family pet, but his is not a breed for the timid owner and needs firm obedience training."
