Homer is an 11 year old sweet senior that loves to be next to you almost as much as he loves food. He gets along with other dogs and probably wouldn’t be interested in chasing any cats. He has mobility difficulties and can’t do stairs. Due to these issues, he does better on carpeted flooring or floors with throw rugs. He also doesn’t always make it outside to go potty but that isn’t his fault. He tries but he doesn’t have 100% control. His foster home has tried a belly band but the bands that were tried makes it too difficult for Homer when he gets up from sitting or lying down. We are working on getting some weight off him as he is a big boy. His last weigh in was 30 pounds but that is down from a previous recorded weight of 38 pounds! The hope is with a reduction in his weight, his mobility might improve. Homer has no vision in one eye and he is on daily eye drops because his eye doesn’t produce tears. He also is a little hard of hearing. Homer is on daily glucosamine supplements to help his joints work better. He is neutered and had a dental to remove his remaining teeth. Homer is vocal and lets you know when he wants to eat or come inside or just talk. He is just the cutest guy with his sweet round Pug face and gentle kisses.
