Story
🤍 Meet Apollo — A Handsome Explorer With a Heart of Gold! 🤍 3 years old | 56 lbs | All-white Husky | One brown eye and one half-brown, half-blue eye Just look at this gorgeous boy! 😍 Apollo is an all-white Husky with the most unique, captivating eyes and a personality that will make you fall head over heels. He’s playful, adventurous, affectionate, and always ready to make new friends. But behind that beautiful face is a story that deserves to be told. 🐾 His Story — Forgotten, But Never Giving Up Apollo was found living in a city park along the Texas/Mexico border. He had been there for at least six months, and some people believed he had been surviving there for more than a year. This wasn't some quiet, forgotten corner of town. It was a busy park where families gathered and games were played every weekend. People came and went, yet this poor boy was left to fend for himself, surviving by digging through the garbage people left behind. Can you imagine being so close to people every day and still having no one step up to give you a home? Thankfully, Apollo was finally taken in at the beginning of October 2026. His days of searching for scraps and surviving on his own are behind him. Now, this beautiful boy is ready to find the family who will make sure he is never forgotten again. 🤍 🐶 His Personality — Friendly, Fun, and Full of Life! Apollo is a happy, outgoing boy who loves being around people and other dogs. He has lived in a busy park surrounded by children and families, and he has been friendly with the people he has encountered. He absolutely LOVES other dogs of all sizes and enjoys running, playing, and exploring alongside his furry friends. He has also been cat-tested and simply ignores the cats! Apollo is an explorer at heart. He loves roaming around the property, checking everything out, and making sure he doesn't miss a thing. He has that wonderful Husky curiosity and adventurous spirit that makes every day an opportunity for something new. And when it's time to settle down? This clever boy knows his routine! When told to go into his crate, Apollo happily goes in and lies down. He is crate-trained and travels beautifully in the car, where he simply lies down and falls asleep. 🚗💤 🌊 Water, Wet Noses, and Hilarious Antics! If there's water around, Apollo is ready for fun! He loves getting wet, splashing around, and playing with his doggy friends. But here's where the entertainment begins: once he's thoroughly soaked, he likes to come straight over to his humans and shake himself dry all over them! Apparently, sharing the water is part of the fun. 😂💦 So if you're looking for a companion who will keep you laughing, join you on outdoor adventures, and make sure life is never boring, Apollo might be your perfect match! 🏃 Your Next Hiking and Running Partner! Apollo would thrive with an active family who enjoys getting outdoors. He would love to join you for hikes, runs, long walks, and adventures where he can explore the world by your side. His dream home would include: • A loving, active family who wants to include him in their daily adventures. • A securely fenced, spacious yard where he can stretch his legs and play. • Another friendly dog to share in the fun, as he truly enjoys canine companionship. • Plenty of opportunities for exercise, exploration, playtime, and affection. A home with another dog and a big yard would be his idea of paradise! As a Husky, Apollo will benefit from consistent exercise, mental stimulation, and a family who understands the needs of this energetic breed. 🤍 From Park Life to Family Life — Apollo Deserves His Happy Ending! Apollo has spent far too much of his young life surviving on his own when he should have been enjoying the security and love of a family. Despite everything, he is still a friendly, sweet, playful boy who loves people, adores other dogs, and finds joy in the simplest things. He hasn't lost his adventurous spirit or his desire to be part of a pack. Now it's time for Apollo to discover what it feels like to have a family of his very own — people who will take him on adventures, laugh at his silly water antics, give him a comfortable place to sleep, and love him for the rest of his life. He has the looks, the personality, and the heart. All he needs now is someone to give him a chance. Could Apollo be the missing piece of your family? 🤍🐾 Give this beautiful boy the forever home he's been waiting for. His next adventure should be with YOU!

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.All of the animals posted on our site have been temperament tested. While not all are in the immediate area, once we have processed and approved your application, we will move the dog to our adoptive area for you to meet, greet and hopefully adopt. Sometimes we will have more than one application on a dog. That does not mean it automatically goes to another family but you should be aware of the fact that until you are approved and set up for the meet/greet.. the dog could get adopted by another applicant.Harley is such a great dog! A note from his foster:  He’s perfectly well-behaved in the house. House-trained, gentle and happily goes into his crate at night or when asked. He’s smart and knows some commands. Seems to take satisfaction from pleasing humans, with just enough personality to make you laugh. He knows enough to test boundaries, but quickly course-corrects. This pup is grateful for getting the pets and is thrilled with the bully-rub.  He’s happy to nap by your feet during work calls, lay in the sun, and eager to go for walks. Good on a leash. Happy to sit for his harness and takes commands well when leaving the house. His prey drive is high — gets too excited about squirrels, most birds, other critters that scurry. He’s not well-suited for other dogs. Or cats.  He’s got some hound in his mix; loves to sniff and on the occasions when a siren would pass he would sing along. (Adorable.) Not a crazy barker, but can sound fierce when he does bark. He’s more of a gentle giant with humans. Did just fine with new people coming into the home. Sheds a lot!  Harley would live his best life in a home where he’s the only pet. A privacy-fenced yard to run free in would be nice, I suspect, but he’s seemingly just as happy to live in a city and go for walks a few times a day. Contact with other dogs would have to be limited.  He’s the perfect dog if you’re looking for a loyal best friend, and don’t have other pets.  Due to his being dog selective, we will only place Admiral in a home with childern 14 and older. If you are interested in Admiral, please contact: rorrcanine@gmail.com      *** Click here to sponsor this dog! *** Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.October 14, 2026, 6:25 pm
