A Good Day

Today I adopted a dog from the shelter. It wasn't anything I planned to do today. My family and I were out and about, having brunch, then bought a Christmas tree (which still needs to be decorated). We stopped at Sonic for drinks when my daughter in law spied a sign about a county shelter adoption day, so we drove around until we found it. The little guy was the only dog left and that helped make my decision. He came into the shelter and they named him Doxy because he's a dachshund mix. We changed his name to Homer. He was responding to it almost immediately. Our kitten isn't too keen with our newest family member, but Homer is just a delight to have around. He's very sweet and well behaved. Already potty trained. I'm hoping he'll get less reticent about chewing on his rawhide treats. So far he's ignored them. I am so blessed to have found this little guy. I'll post a picture as soon as I can.
