Homer 's Dairy Delight

Homer adopted us 3 years ago. We found him buried in a blanket in a local Petco during a thunder storm. His sad eyes and deep facial expressions touched our hearts. We opted to foster Homer for a week to see if we were a match. An hour into fostering, we knew he was a member of the family. One of the first things that Homer did in the house was to sit down and watch a hockey game with my husband, something he still likes to do to this day.

Homer loves hiking, almost any form of real dairy, doggie ice cream sandwiches, and other dogs more than people though he does have a strong affinity for attractive, female joggers. So much so, that he will turn half around and keep walking, following them as they go by, often running into something because he is no longer looking where he is going. We even love that, much like a kid, he knows which days are Saturday and Sunday and gets us up at 5am to play. Our lives have never been the same since that fateful day at Petco.
