Meet our next finalist from Westmeath Apollo, the beautiful Collie Shepherd mix. "Apollo has helped me through some of my toughest times especially with my anxiety and mental health. His calm presence, intuition, and endless love have been a source of strength and comfort when I needed it most. He’s smart, loyal, and always knows how to make me smile, whether it’s with doing zoomies around the house thinking he’s a sports car or just quietly sitting beside me. Apollo is more than a pet, he’s my best friend, my heart, and my family".
