Mon 23rd Oct: The Big Disney Reveal

All crates are scattered around the garden 
The chaos continues on Lamma as the workmen have been busy doing some important repairs, and the only good thing I can say about the upheaval is that the dogs have been remarkably tolerant of having strangers in their home.  Some took advantage of the constant opening of the front gate and skipped outside for a play, but they were all very happy to stay within a few feet of the house and paid no attention whatsoever to the comings and goings.

I had to go out today leaving Kathy in charge on Lamma, and I will have to go out again on Tuesday, but at least my early fears that the dogs might be protective of their space have been allayed and I'm not worried.  Still, I can't wait for the mess and mayhem to be over and all dogs house returned to their rightful places instead of being spread all over the garden.

I need a name for this new poodle boy
Our driver picked up a new poodle from the Pokfulam AFCD kennels, and although I had been led to understand it was a standard, it is just a regular toy size.  I think we are now so used to seeing tiny poodles that a real toy looks very large in comparison.  At least we were spared the problem of wondering where we were going to keep a standard poodle as they are big dogs, but the new boy was fine to stay at our Ap Lei Chau Homing Centre.

Another new boy was adopted today, and it wasn't a surprise that sweet Curtis was quickly chosen.  He looks like a small version of a labrador and he's such a happy and friendly dog.
Lucky Curtis was quickly chosen


A quick update on some of our surgery cases:  Blizzard, the bichon puppy who came to us with a broken leg, is recovering from the surgery to repair the break, and Dr Tony said the leg should heal well as Blizzard is still very young.

Blinky the adorable blind shih tzu who had both of his wonky knees operated on at the same time has also made a good recovery and is ready for adoption.  His foster has kept us updated with lots of photos and videos, and I can honestly say that Blinky is one of the happiest dogs imaginable, even without eyesight and when he couldn't stand because of the surgery.  This is a very special little dog who deserves the best home and life, and whoever adopts him will be very lucky.
Blinky's knees have been repaired and he's ready to go


Pom Rita became another failed foster as her status was upgraded to permanent, and her smile says it all.
We love failed fosters, and so does Rita!
Both of our in-foster bulldogs have also been adopted, and on the same day.  Boris has gone to a new home while Graham is another failed foster and is staying where he is.
