Mon 25th Dec: Christmas and a new rescue

This poor poodle was found in the middle of nowhere
Christmas Day finally arrived, and thank you to everyone who sent lovely photos, greetings and updates on our ex-HKDR dogs enjoying their family holiday and cosy homes.  It does make me feel sad for all of those still without and living at the Homing Centres, but even they are lucky compared to some, like the little poodle that was found in the middle of nowhere today.  One of our adopters-of-many over the years picked up this terrified little dog way out in the New Territories, clearly a throwaway judging by the condition.  The poodle will come to us on Tuesday and then the long haul towards good health and a full coat will begin.  We have no details of age but it seems the poodle is still quite young.
No guessing why this poodle was thrown away

Another dog that I'm concerned about is Laura, still a puppy but heading towards doglet age and having been in several foster homes during her short life.  She is such a sweet girl and I love to see her on Sundays at Whiskers N Paws where she always greets me so happily, but I wonder when she will find her forever home finally?  Her current foster can only keep her for one more week and then Laura needs to move on again, so we will be needing another place for her to stay from this coming Sunday, New Year's Eve.  If you can help please let Cindy know (foster@hongkongdogrescue.com) or even better, give Laura a home for life.

It was a quiet day for adoptions, as anticipated, but one dog did leave Ap Lei Chau for a trial, new grey/white schnauzer Jenny.  She was surrendered to AFCD and was very scared there at the kennels, so I'm really happy she has a chance of a new life and home now.

Good lucky Jenny
