My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Apollo! Apollo is a 5-year-old, 24 lb Shiba Inu/Retriever mix with a gentle heart and a sweet spirit. He sadly lost his home through no fault of his own—after his family went through a divorce, Apollo had nowhere to go. Thankfully, a kind Samaritan stepped in and reached out for help, and now this deserving boy is safe in foster care and enjoying long, peaceful trail walks with his foster mom.

Apollo is a kind, sensitive soul. He can be a bit shy at first, so he’ll thrive with someone who understands slow introductions and gentle handling. Once he feels comfortable, his loving personality really shines. He’s already bonded beautifully with the German Shepherd in his foster home—they have a blast playing together!

This smart boy has already mastered sit, and he also knows lay down and look. Even better, he’s potty trained. Apollo loves car rides, exploring new places, and being part of the adventure. He has been fully vetted, including a recent dental, and is healthy and ready for his next chapter. Due to his prey drive with small critters, Apollo will do best in a home without cats.

Apollo is looking for a patient, loving adopter who will help him continue to blossom. If you’re searching for a loyal friend with a tender heart, Apollo may be the perfect match.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

If interested in one of our adoptables, we ask that you fill out our adoption application which can be found on our website at: www.lovebugsrescue.org

After we receive your application we will contact you to talk with you regarding the pet and answer any questions you have.

If both parties agree, a meet and greet can be set up so that you can see the pet in person. These will typically take place in the adopters home so that the pet may meet the other family members and pets in the household.

If both parties agree, an adoption can take place at that meeting. An adoption contract is signed and adoption fee paid. An adoption fee will range from $150 - $500.
