My story

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

THIS IS A COURTESY POST! PLEASE DO NOT SHOW UP AT THE SHELTER TO MEET HIM. HE IS NOT AT THE SHELTER
 
MEET Apollo â¤ï¸ also responds to Paul. How cuuute. 
 
Apollo is a good young boy. 
His only fault is his energy... his family sort of ended up with him. They feel bad. But they have realized he deserves more than they can give. He is destructive in home when not properly excercised, and hes a jumper, they have a kid and hes too much with the kid. They have tried to work with him, but have realized that they are not the right fit. All of this is fixable and trainable with the right person or family. Hes just young and needs consistency and training 
 
Here's what they answered to my questions: 
 
"Apollo nickname Paul (he responds to both) 
Kind of Leash Trained (we dont walk him as much as he needs)
Crate Trained
No allergies that we know of
Hes ok in the car, sometimes throws up
He is ok alone in a crate if nothing is around him but he did eat the rug/plastic at the bottom of the crate
Recall only when said a couple times but not in a open space maybe like a backyard
No idea about cats or dogs ( except his sibling dog he is fine with)
We got him from one of my husband friends, he is half lab half heeler
 
And no rehoming fee we just want him to go to a really good home." 
 
He is 1.5 yrs old. Black Lab/ Heeler. Neutered. And UTD on shots.
