Story
We got her from the San Marcos animal shelter about almost a year ago. She’s going onto 3 years old and very friendly! Slow introductions need to be set with anyone and any animals! She’s protective over family so she makes a great family/protective dog. Prefer a ranch for her but if you have a big yard and time for her that’s also fine. She’s a great dog, loves to go on walks, baths and going to the backyard. When she gets comfortable, she lays near you or close by. She loves food especially!

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##
