The Apollo is named for an ancient and mostly forgotten god of the sun. A typical Apollo stands around three feet at the shoulders, weighs about 200 pounds and has tan or light brown fur, though blue and white with black spots is not unknown.
Apollos are bred as war or guard dogs and as working dogs. Many nobles and wealthy merchants own large kennels of these dogs, employing them to guard their estates, and farmers often use them to guard livestock. The Apollo has become increasingly popular as a war dog among various mercenary groups because of the breeds tenacity, resolve, and endurance in a fight.
