Adopt Apollo

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 4 months

01.01.2024Castration: yes Apollo and his sister was found abandoned in the capital of the Corfu Island on one of the big parking areas. They were both lying exhausted and dehydrated down of one car. Very skinny, unable to walk and stand up. Some kind people called for help and they have been transported to foster care and after to our shelter.Apollo is a dog that will need a lot of training and strong character person because even if his size and weight is of adult dog, in his brain he still feel as a puppy and sometimes playing with no control. He weights almost 30 kg and his height is almost 60cm and it is important his new owner set up the rules for him. He is super friendly and happy dog . He will be fantastic when someone can treat him correctly and teach him basic commands.

About Apollo

What life with Apollo looks like

Apollo is a large puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Corfu Animal Help in Corfu.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇬🇷Adopting from Greece

Greek shelters often partner with Northern European rescue groups for placements. Animals are sterilized, vaccinated, and chipped before adoption. Fees vary widely depending on whether the shelter is municipal or NGO-run.

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. Corfu Animal Help 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 — Corfu Animal Help 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 Corfu Animal Help 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 (EN). 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.
