Sir Apollo's Story

Hi, I'm Sir Apollo and I'm ready to find my forever home.<br/><br/><br/> Dog's Name: Sir Apollo<br/> Location: Chicago, IL<br/> Date of Birth: 10/01/2020<br/> Gender: Male<br/> Breed: Great Dane<br/> Color: Blue Brindle<br/> Dog's Weight: 100<br/><br/><br/>Gets along with:<br/><br/><br/> Dogs?: Yes - Needs slow introduction to other dogs. He prefers his mealtime in private away from other dogs.<br/> Cats?: No<br/> Kids?: Yes- Older kids (10+) <br/><br/><br/> Meet Sir Apollo – The Gentle Soul Finding His Courage <br/><br/>Sir Apollo is a sweet, handsome boy who's looking for a calm, loving home to help him continue blossoming into the confident dog he's meant to be. Though shy and timid at first, it's clear that Apollo wants to be brave—he's already showing more confidence each day! With patience and reassurance, you'll quickly see his warm, affectionate side shine through.<br/><br/>Once you've earned your spot in his trusted “circle,” you'll be greeted with joyful tail wags, excited spins, and plenty of cuddles. Apollo enjoys hiking through forest preserves, playing fetch, and carrying around his toys—but his favorite part of any day is coming home to a peaceful environment where he can relax and recharge with a happy sigh in his cozy bed.<br/><br/>Apollo can get anxious in busy or unfamiliar situations so meeting new people one-on-one is a must. He does take comfort in his person's calm, confident guidance. He can be selective with other dogs and shows some resource guarding around food or toys, so slow introductions are essential. On walks, he's generally non-reactive—unless another dog reacts first—but he's very food-motivated and can be redirected with gentle, consistent training.<br/><br/>Sir Apollo is searching for a quiet, stable environment with one or two adults or a family with older, calm children. He would thrive as an only dog but could potentially do well with a laid-back canine companion after slow introductions. A fenced yard would be wonderful for zoomies and fetch, though not required—he loves his neighborhood walks and is a great car rider for adventures.<br/><br/>Apollo's perfect match is someone patient, understanding, and confident. Someone who can offer him the steady reassurance he needs to continue growing into the happy, secure boy he's becoming. If you're looking for a loyal companion who will reward your love with devotion and gentle affection, Sir Apollo may just be your perfect match.<br/><br/> Note: Transport coordination is up to the adopter.
