Lainey Poo keeps Birdie on her toes.
Homer tried to give the new girls a tour of the yard but they weren’t interested. I told him tours are more interesting if the guide is more interactive 😬
We might be a little biased, but look how handsome Homer is. He got a bath today and seemed to enjoy it. He just did his final stroll around the yard and will refuse to go out later before bed😄.
We’re going to take a break from rescue to enjoy a much needed vacation. Homer and the gang will be well taken care of while we’re away.
See you in a week!
Homer enjoyed a nice walk around the yard after supper. He’s had a great weekend and hopes you are enjoying yours as well!
Homer has given the new deck and ramp his seal of approval. However, he did not want to stay outside.😊

Homer is saying he hopes everyone is having a wonderful Mother’s Day.
Or maybe he’s asking for a third treat. He absolutely must have a treat after dinner.
We’ll go with Happy Mother’s Day.❤️
Someone is not interested in outside morning social time. After a few pets, he was right back at the door. 😊
He missed the fox running through the back yard!
Today marks six weeks of having Homer with us in rescue. Six weeks ago we didn't know if he would even survive the gunshot wound but look at him now. Living and loving life! Congrats to Homer and a huge thank you to everyone supporting his journey. We could not have saved Homer without you!
This may be the spot. Nope.
Finding a place to poo is serious business.

This game just never gets old. I'm not talented enough to hold the phone and touch his collar at the same time or I would've recorded him stepping up on his own!😁
Homer was up for exploring today. He had lots of energy and was very vocal except when some deer strolled past a few yards away. Homer didn't make a sound! He just sniffed. Acknowledging they were there. He's invented a new game. He'll go down the deck stairs but when it's time to go inside he will climb until he gets to the last step. The barking and hollering happens at that point like he's been stuck for hours. A little nudge on the color and he takes the last step.
Today he spit his meds out in protest no doubt. He finally took them a little later hidden in a couple treats. Needless to say, this guy is a character!
After closing most of it off, we opened the yard back up today. We closed it off to let the grass/weeds grow back. Homer was in hog heaven and explored for about 45 minutes. His internal dinner alarm must have gone off so he headed straight for the door and began singing for his supper!
He asked me to tell you that he has been enjoying all the yummy treats he's received in the mail. Can't say that he likes one treat better than the others. He eats them ALL like they're his favorite. He will share with others just as long as he gets his first.
We've been throwing around the idea of possibly doing a Homer T-shirt. What do you think?
Homer had a nice leisurely walk this afternoon. He seemed to really enjoy it. We walked on the road in front of the house then cut through to the back yard where he got a good sniff of everything new.
Happy Tuesday everyone! Homer having his morning stroll. We'll be getting rain today so he spent some extra time outside this morning. We're super happy with how he's filling out. He'll be headed to the vet tomorrow to check his progress.
We're up before the roosters crow again. Homer has just come from outside and usually does this walking around thing every time he does. A few laps around the living room then to the office where he'll walk around a few times before he naps. Truth be told, he's looking for remnants of any treat crumbs left on the floor. We started giving him treats when he goes outside and inside on his own. And you know we have to give everyone else a treat too!
It's hard to get videos or pictures of Homer. When he's awake he wants to be right next to us. He's become part of the pack and does very well with the others.
Sitting in the middle of the floor is one of our resident dogs Lainey Poo.
Don't ask how she got her middle name!
Homer would like to thank Marie April Gismondi for the Rabbit Ears with Duck chews. As you can see they were a big hit!
He had another great day with no complaints. At least we didn't hear any complaints from him or the others.🙂 He's really loving the nice weather in the evening and loves to sit outside. He barks hello to the neighbor's dog when she comes outside and they converse for a few minutes until she goes back inside. His only trouble to speak of now is that he gets stuck under a table here and there. If he can't get out he lays down.😁 Homer got a much-needed bath and his coat is really coming along. I think I saw him do a happy dance when Pippy left for her new home.🐶
Yep, that's our Homer trotting down the sidewalk.🙂 Today was a beautiful day. We hope you got outside and trotted down your own sidewalk!
Forgot to mention yesterday that Homer has gained exactly one pound.
