26-09-24 - Homer is the sweetest boy who has come to us from his breeder to find his forever home. When he was young he suffered from a condition called puppy strangles which causes skin swelling and scabs all over his little face. He still has a little hairloss and scarring from this and his ears are thickened and his eyes are droopy but he must be feeling so much better already. He is a worried but gentle little fellow who needs a little time to warm up to you when he first meets you. Once he is in your arms he does settle and will begin to relax. This chap will need some practice being fussed and as he is young we hope it wont be too long until he is enjoying it and discovering his puppy side! He loves to lie with his friends under a heat lamp. He will need a kind resident dog to lend him some confidence and show him new skills like house training and how to walk on a lead. He will need heaps of socialisation and training to help him become the best he can be and will be so much fun if given the time and patience he needs to begin to bloom.

Homer is an incredibly sweet and handsome boy who is trying his hardest to be brave. Homer is still trying to get used to us and is slowly starting to understand we are not scary, though his confidence grows more when influenced by his outgoing kennel pals. I sat in Homer’s kennel for a while with him and his kennel friend, and after a few minutes Homer approached me and sniffed my hands before eventually taking a few treats. Homer is just so scrumptious and seeing him curl into bed makes me hope and imagine that soon it’ll be in his own bed (or his adopters!) Homer relies a lot on other dogs so will definitely need to be homed with at least one kind resident dog. Homer could also be homed with dog savvy older children. Being a puppy Homer would need to learn the basics of home life too. He has a whole world to discover, but he needs his people to show him . Hopefully this handsome chap is waiting to long for his forever home! He really is a sweetheart!
Please read our information on ADOPTING EX-BREEDING DOGS before you apply.
PLEASE NOTE: We nearly always home dogs who have come from breeders where there is ALREADY A RESIDENT DOG living in the house. They have usually never lived in a house before and are only used to canine company. They usually get their confidence and learn faster with another dog to copy from. This also helps with house training and learning how to walk on a lead. They will make lovely pets but do need a lot of love, time and patience. If the ex breeding dog you are interested in can be an only dog it will say so in its write up. Please read our information on ADOPTING EX-BREEDING DOGS before you apply.
