Description:

Meet Apollo, a sweet 2.5-year-old Chocolate Lab looking for his new “person”, preferably a female. Apollo responds well to gentle corrections; walks reasonably well on a leash, though he currently seeks lots of reassurance, so it's best to avoid busy areas or places where other dogs or people might startle him. He displays no prey drive, showing no interest in chasing after cats, squirrels or birds. Apollo loves both dog and human company. He is intelligent and eager to please. Ideally, he'd thrive in a reassuring environment, with someone who is often at home, whether they work from home, are retired, or simply spend a lot of time indoors. He’d do best in the company of other dogs who can hang with him when his owner goes out without him as he does not like to be alone. Pool not necessary, he is not a swimmer! With patience and understanding, Apollo will blossom into a more playful and affectionate companion as he grows more comfortable in his new surroundings.
