Homer's story is a beautiful reminder of what can happen when rescues work together. ❤️🐾
We're honored to have partnered with True Love Rescue to give Homer another chance at life. His journey is a powerful reminder of what can happen when rescues come together for the good of a dog in need.
Thanks to collaboration, an incredible veterinary team and the support of our amazing community, Homer is home and enjoying the life he deserves.
Please take a moment to read the post and follow Homer's journey. Your shares, encouragement and support mean the world as we continue working together to provide Homer with the care he needs. Thank you for believing in second chances! 🐾❤️
Two is better than one and in Homer’s case it took two rescues coming together.
Homer came to True Love Rescue in late 2025. During what should have been a routine neuter, we were given devastating news he had an aggressive cancer, and we were told he had only about two months to live. We were heartbroken and believed there was nothing more that could be done. Needing to make every day count, Homer became a forever foster and spent his time enjoying road trips, adventures, and all the “yes days” he deserved.
Then everything changed. A conversation with Golden Retriever Rescue Southern Nevada, who had experience with a very similar tumor, gave us hope we never thought he’d have. GRRSN vet Sun City Animal Hospital got him in immediately. It was a very intense surgery, and a few minor complications led to a 2 week medical boarding stay. But Homer is HOME now and thriving.
Because our two rescues came together, Homer finally has a life of his own. We don’t know exactly how much time surgery bought him, but we are happy he is getting his chance.
Homer’s medical care has already totaled $9,670 following surgery. Homer is on a monthly medication which is $1,500.00 a month called Palladia. Both rescues are working together to cover the cost of giving this incredible boy the future he deserves.
Homer is grateful to both rescues for saving him from his two month time limit, and he’s thankful for every person who has donated, shared his journey, and cheered him on. Both rescues will continue to post updates, raise money, work on Homers health as he has stolen the hearts of many people. Thank you for believing in second chances. We wish everyone could meet this amazing boy! ❤️
