| Nibs was a no-brainer for his adopter |
It was no surprise that one of the new black labalikes was the first puppy to be adopted today at Whiskers N Paws, while a second went to a foster home later in the afternoon.
Take a look at all the photos here, and thanks to our latest new volunteer photographer, Dennis Cheng, for a lovely set. It's much harder than you might think getting good shots of fast-moving targets.

| Chestnut Charlie is staying forever |
Chestnut officially became Charlie when he was adopted by his foster parents today, and that also means I can close the file for that particular litter. They started life at AFCD with their mother, and I took them out when they were four weeks old and sent them to foster homes in pairs. It's taken a while for Chestnut-Charlie while his siblings were adopted much earlier on, but finally it's his time.

| Emma today |
Emma is also the last of her litter of six, although she's still quite young and enjoying life in a foster home. Can you pick her out from the baby lineup photo?
There was one absent face today and that's because lovely, sweet Tom will be flying off to the United States as soon as we can arrange everything for him to start his new life there. We're all so happy for this wonderful boy, and thanks to his foster to making this happen.

| Which one is Emma |
Rufus is not the last of the Stanley Barracks puppies still waiting as cousin/brother Bertram also hasn't yet found a forever home, but he is the only fuzzy-faced side of the family. As it happened his "uncle" Frank was at Whiskers N Paws today so we were able to get a photo of the two of them together. Frank had looked exactly the same as Rufus when he was adopted, so we can expect that Rufus will also grow a very thick and soft multi-coloured coat like Frank's. All of the Stanley Barracks dogs have been amazing, including the mother/grandmother many times over who was trapped, desexed and quickly adopted. Maybe this means the end of this particular family line, so if you are interested in either of the two remaining boys please don't wait too long.
I guessed that new poodle Minty would be chosen pretty quickly, and I was right. She left today, with at least her face cleared of long hair if not her whole body.
