I could not sleep last night either Joni!
Howllo Fellow Hound and not being able to sleep lovers: Well, today is the big day. We have all worked so hard on this day and now it is finally here. Our Homer was a victim of despair and many of us rose to the occasion to help him. Times are tough at best and I know how hard money is to come by. Homer has received many words of encourgement as well and they have lifted both of our spirits. Now comes the fun part. We get to hear all about Homer and his retirement. I will be blogging more about that as he starts his new life. Homer makes my 7th basset hound that I have rescued and re-homed in 2 years. Each one very special in their own way. It’s always harder when you see the face of an elder with zero options. Then someone steps ups and says, “I’ll take him”. Thank you Joni B! Your new old man will be on his way in about an hour!
Here is a picture I took of him yesterday with my Mom. He took a long walk! He loves walking.
Let’s get this show on the road!
More updates today……….Love, Cat, Chaps, Emma and Homer going to his forever home today! 1-3-09

Have a safe trip Homer…..we love you and Joni, you must keep in touch with all of us. You are family NOW!!!!! Thanks again Cat, Homer will experience peace, love, joy and a Forever Home because of YOU!
He is about 30 minutes away. I can’t stand it!!!!! It’s still daylite so i can take him for a walk. I’ve got a coat for him and a leash at the ready. My boyz are anxious to eat but i told them not till Homer gets here.
Joni – That is so cool! I am thrilled for you. I will be waiting by the computer for my next pupdate! Have fun and enjoy! Love you
Cat, Chaps and Emma
He should be there by now!!! I can’t wait to here how it goes. I know Homer will be spoiled by Joni – and he deserves it.
Cat, the dogs who find their way to you are so very, very lucky. Thank you so much for all you do to help them get to safety.

I try my best! I sure respect the folks that have done this a long time. It is very hard work physically and emotionally. It also takes a village. I could never do it alone.
