Homer on the doorstepOur two week holiday at home has certainly helped Homer. He's more relaxed and confident and YES! he goes outside! Not for long, mind, a few minutes is enough then he heads back indoors, exhausted.

It's been very sunny and warm while we've been off and he's been happy toasting his bones at the french doors or the front door, if it is left open.

He then progressed to sitting outside on the back doorstep, sniffing the air and surveying the territory. Finally, he braved a walk round the yard, a sniffy examination of the car and a roll about in the dust.

Today, he and I were lying on the doormat with the front door open, catching a few rays, when he upped and sauntered out the front door like he'd always done it. He sat on the doorstep, watching the chickens dust bathing, then wandered round for a closer look. He was probably out for less than 5 minutes but he seemed completely relaxed.

He's now curled up in his bed, sound asleep, worn out by his exertions. He's such a sweetie.

Homer looks like he's enjoying these hot summer days :-)
