| The swollen face at Christmas was the first sign of Naomi's problem |
I would have stayed at home if I hadn't needed to take Lamma dog Naomi to Acorn for an ultrasound on their new machine, and while the results were reassuring in that she doesn't have anything visibly nasty going on inside she is still not at all well. It seems to be the dreaded autoimmune disease, and I call it that because it's so vague and difficult to treat. I can't help but remember Biff and what happened to him after having had the same problem, although I also know other dogs who responded to the high-dose steroids. At the moment Naomi is going through the motions of appearing to be normal, but she has no interest in anything and if she could speak I'm sure her response to everything would be "Whatever".
I thought the weather was bad enough before, but now we have the rain as well and I'm really quite desperate to get more puppies into foster homes if you can help. Email Cindy at foster@hongkongdogrescue.com for details, thanks.

| Long-termer Pip settled in very well |
There was good news about some foster/trials as Tai Po Pip's adoption was confirmed, along with Tinsel and Jenny from Ap Lei Chau. Also after many enquiries corgi Dizzy was adopted from the Homing Centre today (photos to follow), just in time to welcome two ex-breeder dogs that are due to arrive on Wednesday.
New dogs arrive all the time so please complete the Adoption Questionnaire on our website www.hongkongdogrescue.com if you are interested in any already with us or have a specific type, size of age in mind. Please remember though that we are a rescue organisation so requests for goldendoodle or French bulldog puppies, or any purebreeds for that matter, are unlikely to be successful. We do get such puppies in from time to time but really very rarely, but there are many equally lovely puppies available, and without the inbred problems of the breeds.

Jenny's on the right, and a very happy girl
