Delmar and Homer
Pets are an important part of my life. Growing up, my family always had animals around including dogs, cats, a horse, chickens, and fish. After getting married, my husband and I didn’t wait very long before adopting a dog. I also had a rabbit and fish. Currently we have two dogs–Delmar, a boxer mix, and Homer, a Morkie (Maltese and Yorkshire Terrier mix).

Drifter was a lanky 6-month old Redbone Coonhound who drifted into our lives in the spring of 2003. After locating his owner, he ended up staying with us and grew into a striking animal who was admired by all who met him. He accompanied Homer through basic obedience at 8 years of age and took home the blue ribbon for first place in his class. Drifter was with us nearly 9 years before cancer took him in late 2011.
