Apollo

Meet this gentle, sensitive boy who's having a tough time adjusting to the shelter - but is already showing quiet signs of bravery every day.

The shelter environment has been overwhelming for him so right now he can be very nervous around new people and unfamiliar noises. But beneath that fear is a truly sweet dog who wants to feel safe - and is slowly starting to come out of his shell.

With patience and a calm approach, he's begun to make progress. He's shown moments of curiosity, has started to relax in quieter spaces, and has even enjoyed gentle walks where he can take in the world at his own pace. Volunteers have seen him grow more comfortable over time, accepting some pets and affection once he feels safe.

He'll need a quiet, patient home with someone who understands that trust takes time - and that the smallest wins are worth celebrating. He may not be ready to jump into new experiences right away, but with consistency, kindness, and a low-pressure environment, he has so much potential to blossom.

If you have a calm home and a big heart, this sweet boy could be the one who truly transforms with your help.
