Story

Apollo's previous owner wrote the sweetest things about him, that we just had to share it. "My dog Apollo is incredibly sweet. He loves love! There are many special times where he looks into your eyes and you know he knows what you're going through. He loves to be sung to, especially before bedtime. He likes a mound of blankets and was accustomed to sleeping on an elevated cot dog bed. However, he'd be more than happy to join you in yours if allowed. He loves pets and back scratchies. His favorite naughty foods are pizza and pasta. He can't resist a good red sauce. Beware he will try to get between you and your can of V8 an absolute favorite of his."Apollo weighs 96lbs (probably too much pizza and pasta!)

Story

Hi my name is Roxie! They say I’m a 6 month old bully mix. This nice lady found me tied to a tree and asked to take me home. She found a family to foster me, but they let me run buck wild around the house and I even learned to leap on top of the table. That nice lady came to take me to the vet for all my shots, microchip and spay. She said I needed to learn some manners. Apparently “table and counter surfing isn’t allowed. She crate trained me and I’m doing well with house training. I have a load of energy and loves to play with larger dogs. She said I play to rough with the small ones. I love to run, play, eat and sleep! I really need a family of my own and one where I will be shown what is expected of me. I promise I’ll love you forever.
