Apolo

Galgo Español · Male · Adult · 4 years

Apolo has been with us for too long. It's a fabulous dog that gets along well with other dogs and would be the ideal dog for active families, as it's a very athletic, agile, and energetic dog, perfect for sports activities or long walks. A long walk in the field or by the beach would make Apolo the happiest dog in the world. It melts into kisses and cuddles with anyone who shows it love and affection. It's super affectionate and clingy. It was rescued along with its siblings, still with their eyes closed, by an adopter from Argos, who found them in a closed cardboard box next to a container in a village in Sevilla. ANTERIOR:Apolo is playful, but gets tired quickly, affectionate in just the right measure, neither too much nor too little, protests if you don't let it go where it wants and pick it up. It was rescued along with its siblings, still with their eyes closed, by an adopter from Argos. They found them in a closed cardboard box next to a container in a village in Sevilla.

Apolo lleva demasiado tiempo con nosotros. Es un perro fabuloso, se lleva bien con otros perros y sería el perro ideal para familias deportistas, ya que es un perro muy atlético, ágil y activo, compañero ideal de actividades deportivas o largos paseos. Un largo paseo por el campo o la playa hará de Apolo el perro más feliz del mundo. Se deshace en besos y caricias con cualquiera que le de cariño y amor. Es súper cariñoso y pegajoso. Fue rescatado junto con sus hermanos, aún con los ojos cerrados, por una adoptante de Argos, quien los encontró en una caja de cartón cerrada junto a un contenedor en un pueblo de Sevilla. ANTERIOR:Apolo es juguetón, pero se cansa rápido, mimoso en su justa medida, ni mucho ni poco, protesta si no lo dejas ir donde él quiere y lo coges. Fue rescatado junto con sus hermanos, aún con los ojos cerrados, por una adoptante de Argos. Los encontró en una caja de cartón cerrada junto a un contenedor en un pueblo de Sevilla. Ahora ya comen solos y tienen su primera vacuna, por lo que pronto estarán disponibles para adopción

About Apolo

What life with Apolo looks like

Apolo is a large adult galgo español dog waiting at Argos Sevilla in Seville.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇪🇸Adopting from Spain

Spanish protectoras generally include sterilization, all vaccinations, microchip ID, and EU pet passport in the adoption fee (typically €250–€400 for a dog, €100–€180 for a cat). Many maintain partnerships with rescue transport providers across the EU.

Frequently asked

Adopting Apolo, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Apolo?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Argos Sevilla handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Apolo on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Apolo if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Argos Sevilla 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 Apolo 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 Apolo 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 Argos Sevilla early rather than rehoming privately; they know Apolo 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 (ES). 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.
