Something got Scrappy’s attention
More Tucker
Tucker likes the water.
Tucker returns
Tucker unexpectedly came back today. Then later I thought for a while that he was going back to his people. But ended up staying with me — at least for the next 2 weeks. There’s a smallish story behind all that but I’ll save it for another day. I was glad to see him again. It was a little late in the day to be taking photos by the time I got to these so I knew the image quality would be affected. But it’s still Tucker.
Longest ears?
Red was an adult, feral dog that came to us from Oregon. He has made great strides in relating to humans over the last few years thanks to Tatia and many other volunteers. When I look at him I always wonder if he holds the record for longest ears on a Golden Retriever.

Tucker & Wilson…
… play their own style of tug-of-war.
Wilson
Wilson is the latest arrival to my home. I actually moved him into the house right away. I had little choice given that my 2 kennels are already occupied. The challenge is that Wilson, sweet as he may be, is still a puppy at 11 months. He was surrendered because his humans did not have enough time for him. We’re happy that they gave him up now instead of waiting another year or two. I don’t do puppies so I can’t say where he should be at 11 months behavior-wise. I just know he still has to be watched every…
Tug-of-War Ballet
I haven’t posted much lately. I’ve had quite a few things I could post but didn’t. Probably because attempting to write has become more time-consuming and frustrating. People have suggested that I ditch the writing component and stick with photos. That’s probably a good idea while I figure out the best way to downsize my activities. I’d like to learn to make videos as I am not very good at it. Learning how to get better at video-making will be challenging because learning things online is not easy for me. In the meantime I have this: Arias and Tucker almost…
Camille
One of the saddest events at Homeward Bound, at least for me, is when we take in an older dog that was picked up running, or just walking slowly, on the street. I try to avoid feeling sick inside by imagining a sequence of events in which the dog’s owner doesn’t deserve a healthy dose of instant karma. Thinking that someone abandoned one of these precious bundles is sometimes too much. Better to rejoice that they had the good fortune to make their way to HB where we will help them make the most of their lives. Camille is one…
