For a few weeks, I had been busy racking my brains on designs for this year’s “Homer’s Christmas Card”. I had toyed with a number of ideas, but none of them seem appropriate.
You can imagine my joy, therefore, when we experienced a recent downfall of snow. The backdrop was perfect and my humans and I were soon outside and into a full blown photo shoot. Here are the results...
At first, we thought that a ‘regal’ sitting pose would be ideal. Unfortunately, I wasn’t quite paying attention for this shot.
When it became obvious that a sitting pose was not my forte, Missus suggested that I tried a seductive lying down pose. Unfortunately, my frosty face looked anything but seductive.
Finally, we snapped a picture which we all thought was ideal. My pose was enchanting; the props (i.e. my hat and scarf) were perfectly aligned; the backdrop was stunning: and we even had a fresh snowfall to complete the picturesque scene.
Soon, I got to work on turning my masterpiece into this season’s festive card. Here’s how it ended up...
Don’t you think it’s booti-ful? Hopefully, some of you will have already received a paw-written original in the post. For those of you who I accidentally missed out, this one is especially for you!
Merry Christmas and Happy Howlidays Folks!

Hi Homer! I love all your Christmas card poses! My family and I think you look regal and as handsome as can be in all of them. Your card looks great - so Christmas-y! I hope your tummy feels good enough to start eating yummy food soon - I wonder if Golden Retrievers have sort of sensitive stomachs?
Your friend,
Joey

Keeper's students in art were all impressed! Too bad we don't have snow in the Philippines 'cause I would love to play around in it. PLUS, the snow will surely make my big, black brother Bogart VISIBLE!!!
