Sun 26th Nov: An amazing free gift offer for Christmas

We had a new guest photographer at Whiskers N Paws today and you can see her beautiful set here Album Puppy Adoption Day 26 November 2017 All photos by Mary Dimitropoulou of Mary Dimitropoulou Photography

Not only was Mary Dimitropoulou kind enough to come to our Puppy Afternoon but she has made a very generous Christmas offer of a free photo session for the next five puppy adopters, each worth $1500, including three digital files.  That's a fantastic gift for any family, and you can see Mary's work for the National Geographic here  http://m.yourshot.nationalgeographic.com/profile/1422586/#/photos/

This offer will apply only to the first five Whiskers N Paws puppy adoptions starting next Sunday, just in time for Christmas.

We tried out the new Adopted board today
Blanket and Target were the two lucky ones today, and even though they were too early for the full photo session there are a lot of lovely shots of both pups included in today's set.
Target made sure this family noticed him


Baby Twix was lucky to be taken for fostering, and older pups Laura and Bina went back to their respective foster homes at the end of the afternoon where both are doing extremely well.  However I really need a foster for Betty, as her brother Turner is also in a foster home and second brother Linus will be going this week so that will leave just her.  It's important too that at this age Betty gets socialised and starts her basic training, and she is such a beautiful puppy that I'm amazed she hasn't been chosen yet.  I can't wait to see how she turns out as an adult because she has such an unusual colouring and lots of spots and dots over her body.

Laura's brother Harvey is another older puppy who needs a home or a foster, and I would be so happy to see him settled.  He's a lovely boy, very gentle and easy, so please let Cindy know if you have space in your home for any of the puppies.  Email her at foster@hongkongdogrescue.com for information of how fostering works.
Harvey is a sharpei cross as you can see by his little ears

Rafi's kisses for his puppyhood foster daddy
There was a very touching reunion during the afternoon when Grace's foster parents met up with their ex-foster Rafi.  He had been with them as a baby puppy, before his adoption and subsequent return as a young adult. In between he had been in another foster home and he is now staying with my neighbours on Lamma and their two ex-HKDR dogs, but his loyal nature - very typical of a sharpei - means he never forgets where he has been happy.  It was quite incredible to see how Rafi immediately went and threw himself at his ex-fosters, and I know he would make the most amazing lifelong family member for anyone willing to give him a chance.
Grace has also sadly been in several homes, and she must be the sweetest girl ever

Rafi stayed close all afternoon
