About Apollo (66684)
Meet Apollo - A True Maremma at Heart
Apollo is a striking and loyal boy looking for a home that understands the unique traits of the Maremma breed. While he can be a little aloof at first, he forms bonds quickly and will thrive with a calm and confident handler.
He has tested well with other dogs and may suit a home with a well-matched canine companion. A rural or farm-like property with a secure space-and possibly even a chicken coop-could be a great environment for Apollo to engage in his natural guardian instincts.
Apollo has no known history with children and is best suited to a home with kids aged 10 and over. He may require support transitioning to indoor/outdoor living and will benefit from ongoing training to refine his basic manners and lead skills.
As a Maremma, Apollo will also have ongoing grooming needs to keep his coat healthy and comfortable.
If you have experience with guardian breeds and the space to let Apollo shine, he could be the perfect addition to your home.
