Today was taken up with unexpected dramas, not helped by the fact that there wasn't a van again, so it was good to get home at the end of the afternoon and have my spirits lifted by watching Waldo and Minty playing. Waldo is smaller and younger than Minty but is the bolder of the pair, so they're an even match when it comes to wrestling. However even the enjoyment I get from seeing these two is somewhat marred by knowing the space they have is too small, but I have nowhere else to put them for now. A foster home is really urgently needed so they can really run around and stretch their legs.

So tiny with legs like matchsticks |
The ex-breeder poodle with the wonky leg arrived at Ap Lei Chau as promised, and she's a really tiny dog who makes even mini Mandy look a normal size. She has an appointment to see Dr Tony on Tuesday so we will know if the leg can be fixed or will need to be amputated, but either way she will need a home or at least a foster. At just a year old this little girl will easily adjust to having three legs if needed so I'm not at all concerned about that, and of the two options removing the leg is certainly the quickest way to resolve the issue. Of course if surgery to repair the damage is possible we'll do it, but another clinic has already recommended amputation. We'll see.
The weekend's coming and of course that means Whiskers N Paws Puppy Afternoon, and here's a lovely follow up to a happy adoption last Sunday. Anfield will find herself with plenty of Liverpool Football Club Supporters fans now!

Alison was the teacher today, not the student |
Ex-breeder pomeranian, Alison, represented HKDR at the YMCA Junior Campers talk today, along with Volunteer Teacher Cecilia and her dog Baltan, volunteer Harryn and our Education Manager Cactus.
7 year-old Alison was very calm and sweet even with so many children around her, so if you are interested in meeting her with a view to adoption she is waiting at our Ap Lei Chau Homing Centre.
