Wag Shag October 2009





Apollo had a BLAST at the Wag Shag in Sunset Beach, NC...a wonderful fundraising event for rescues in NC and since we have several foster homes in NC we were invited to attend. Apollo just LOVED all the attention and was sure this was all put together for him. We entered the "Best Hair" contest and he got to strut his stuff on the stage...sadly we lost, ironically, to a Chinese Crested Dog. I showed the judges his "before" pics so they would see that the amount of hair he has is a BIG improvement, LOL. He had a lot more hair than the practically hairless dog that one :) I have always joked that Apollo is our German Crested Dog since his hair pattern is similar to a Crested's.

His favorite part was after the event when we drove over to the beach...couldn't be that close and not go. Oh boy did he have fun...ATTENTION anyone who lives on or near the beach that has EVER considered adopting, this is the dog for you! He was born to live at the ocean. He ran around on the beach and fetched the ball until we had to drag him back to the car! And the best part is all that time in the ocean was WONDERFUL for his skin...it never looked better than the days following this trip! I wonder if I could make a case for retiring to the beach for Apollo's best interest? Hmmmmmm
