Additional info: Apollo was an owner surrender to the shelter due to landlord issues. He loves to vocalize and is a barker. As a cautionary measure, we do not recommend him for a home with young kids. He was very nervous and was shaking and crying the first couple of days in the shelter but has adapted well and loves being cuddled in your lap. Apollo walks well on leash and is good in his crate. When he gets out of his crate he runs around in circles, barking but we are working with him to settle down more. He does resource guard his toys and blankets and can be aggressive if not approached gently and with patience and respect for his space. Apollo is an affectionate, shy little guy who is looking for his forever home right now. He needs an owner willing to work on helping him to share.
