Personality: Spunky Sweet Snuggly Smart
If sunshine were a puppy, it would definitely be Apollo. This adorable blonde boy lights up every room he bounces into - and yes, bounce is the perfect word. Apollo has all the joyful, goofy energy of a Lab puppy mixed with the loving, loyal heart of a pittie.
At just 3 months old, he's already showing how quick he is to learn and how eager he is to please. He loves toys, treats, exploring, and curling right up in your lap the moment he's done adventuring. Apollo's playful spirit makes him the perfect match for an active home, while his sweet, gentle side means he'll be just as happy snuggled up on the couch after a fun day.
What Apollo Is Looking For:
A family who loves puppy kisses and enthusiastic tail wags
Someone ready for training, bonding, and lots of playtime
A home excited to help him grow into the amazing dog he's destined to be
Apollo is fully vetted for his age, great with people, and is ready to bring pure joy into his forever home.

Additionally, exact age and potential size cannot be guaranteed.
