APOLLO's Story

MEET APOLLO…..a stunning, 7 yr old (DOB October, 2018), 15 lb, tan, Lhasa Apso X, who was given up because his family lost their housing during government shut down and were evicted! They provided all positive info about him, and it’s clear they loved him dearly. However, he was purchased at a pet store as a “mini Shih Tzu.” WRONG!!! This boy may not be 100% Lhasa (we never promote as purebred ), but he looks more like a Lhasa than a Shih Tzu and isn’t a “mini” — he’s just the right size.<br/><br/>Apollo was shut down when he arrived; but now, when we come home, he gets really excited and circles to express his glee! He came with a horrible case of kennel cough (for 3 weeks) and a double eye infection. He took his meds like a champ, but he did not enjoy drops put in his eyes because they sting and he let us know! But, for that reason we think he would be better off in an adult home. He was great with the ointment and he’s now better, but he does have slight dry eye and will need daily ointment. He gives gentle kisses to let you know he loves you anyway! If you put him in your arms and love him….he’s all yours. We believe a family who understands the Lhasa personality will adore Apollo, who is a lover, not a fighter!<br/><br/>Apollo is a good eater! He loves to be loved and really needs extra TLC right now. Seems to be potty trained, but we never guarantee. At our house Apollo was great with other dogs and loves to play. The ideal home for him would either be a calm but active environment where he gets oodles of attention (doesn’t like being left alone) or one with another single dog (maybe female) he can bond with. Will you let Apollo light up your heart and life…and will you light up his?
