Apollo

Cane Corso · Male · Senior · 9 years

Apollo came to us from the owner, who got into a difficult life situation and had no other option but to give up Apollo. Apollo is an older gentleman, but in his heart he's still a little puppy who likes to play :-) He likes people, everyone, including children - but he's a puppy, so we don't recommend him for very young children, he could accidentally hurt them. He is easy to handle (currently has an ear infection). Apollo is low-maintenance and well-behaved dog - he loves going for walks, after which he lies down in his bed and snores. He has no tendency to destroy anything and has 100% hygiene habits. Sometimes he tends to be a bit stubborn - if he wants a treat or just to go for a walk, for example :-) His relationship with other dogs depends on personal affinities, we recommend him as a single dog or with a female. Generally, he doesn't have big problems with other dogs. We are looking for a home for him with a laid-back person, like himself...With people who like to go for a walk, but they don't have to be big tourists. Into an apartment or house with a garden, but living inside. Will go for adoption microchipped, vaccinated, dewormed, neutered, under an adoption agreement, after paying the adoption fee (2500,-). Located in Svárov, Central Bohemian Region.

Apollo se k nám dostal od majitele, který se dostal do tíživé životní situace a neměl jinou možnost, než se Apolla vzdát. Apollo je sice už starší pán, ale v duši je stále malé štěňátko, které si rádo hraje :-) Má rád lid+ i, všechny, včetně dětí - je to ale telátko, proto ho k úplně malým dětem nedoporučujeme, mohl by jim nechtěně ublížit. Je bezproblémový na manipulaci (aktuálně vykapávání ucha). Apollo je nenáročný a vychovaný pes - moc rád chodí na procházky, po procházce zalehne do pelechu a chrní. Nemá tendenci nic ničit a má 100% hygienické návyky. Občas má tendenci být trochu uštěkaný - pokud chce třeba pamlsek nebo už jít na procházku :-) Vztah s jinými psy záleží na osobních sympatiích, do domácnosti ho doporučujeme jako jedináčka nebo k feně. Obecně ale se psy nemá velký problém. Hledáme mu domov u pohodářů, jako je on sám...U lidí, kteří rádi vyrazí na procházku, ale nemusí to být žádní velcí turisti. Do bytu nebo domu se zahradou, ale bydlením uvnitř. Do adopce půjde čipovaný, očkovaný, odčervený, kastrovaný, na adopční smlouvu, po uhrazení adopčního poplatku (2500,-). Nachází se ve Svárově, Středočeský kraj.

About Apollo

What life with Apollo looks like

Apollo is a extra-large senior cane corso dog waiting at ForDogs z.s. in Czech Republic.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇨🇿Adopting from Czech Republic

Czech shelters (útulky) include sterilization, vaccinations, and microchip ID. The adopter signs a written contract (smlouva) — the shelter may follow up to verify wellbeing.

Frequently asked

Adopting Apollo, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Apollo?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. ForDogs z.s. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Apollo on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Apollo if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — ForDogs z.s. will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Apollo already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Apollo isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with ForDogs z.s. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Apollo and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (CS). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
