My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:


My name is Homer, and I'm a playful and curious pup with a heart full of adventure. At just nine months old, I've already had my fair share of escapades. I'm probably a mix of Labrador Retriever and Hound, with a sleek coat and a nose that's always sniffing out new trails.

My journey began when I was found running the streets near the Boys and Girls Club, a whirlwind of energy and curiosity. I may not know much about my past, but I'm eager to make the most of my future. Life on the streets toughened me up, but it also taught me resilience and independence.

Now, I'm living the good life with my loving family who adopted me from the shelter. They saw something special in me, and I'm forever grateful for their kindness. Whether it's chasing squirrels in the backyard or cuddling up on the couch, I'm always by their side, ready for the next adventure.

I may have started out as a stray, but now I'm a cherished member of the family, bringing joy and laughter wherever I go. With each passing day, I'm learning more about the world and the humans who have welcomed me into their hearts. And with my wagging tail and boundless spirit, I'm ready to take on whatever life throws my way.
