Story
Shadow is a purebred German Shepherd with AKC paperwork who came with our home. The previous owners were breeders and had kept him mostly outside. When they moved they didn’t want him, so we took him in and have had him for about five years.Shadow is a goofy, sweet dog who bonds closely with his person and likes watching over the house and yard. He’s actually pretty low-energy and spends most of the day relaxing. He enjoys playing keep-away.He is house trained, great on a leash, and naturally heels when walking. He knows sit and waits for the cue “good dogs” before eating.We are rehoming because he does not get along with our other male dog. We’ve managed it by keeping them separated, but with a baby on the way that’s no longer going to be realistic. Shadow cannot live with any male dogs or cats. A home with a yard and either no pets or a well-socialized female dog would be ideal. We have a female dog as well and they get along great.

Story
Here’s Apollo’s updated bio with a stronger emotional pull: Meet Apollo — Still Waiting for His Turn Apollo is now 1 year old, and while he has watched so many of his friends leave for their forever homes, he is still waiting. He watches them go, one by one, and he simply doesn’t understand why no one has chosen him yet. Apollo is a happy, energetic boy who is absolutely full of life. He loves to play, explore, learn, and be part of everything happening around him. He has so much love to give and is ready for a family who will include him in their adventures and help him continue becoming the incredible dog we already know he is. Behind all that energy is a sweet boy who just wants to belong. Apollo has waited long enough. He deserves to know what it feels like to be the one packing his bags, saying goodbye, and heading home. Please don’t let Apollo watch another friend leave without him. Could you be the family he has been waiting for? visit www.pawsinprisontx.org ##2579831##
