Sat 26th May: Molly and Oscar happy news

Alice Lau took this lovely photo of Molly and Oscar

I've been holding back on posting any updates on the two dogs, Molly and Oscar, whose family had to make a sudden and unplanned move back to the UK when the father/husband was diagnosed with terminal cancer, and very sadly died within a short time of their return. 

A sad reminder of Molly and Oscar's first family

Molly and Oscar had been adopted from HKDR as puppies, and they were only two years old when the message came that they would need to find a new home, but despite all efforts there was not a single offer or even a glimmer of interest.  The dogs were moved to a lovely home boarding facility where they had lots of fun, but it could only ever be temporary.  Finally a lovely family said they would like to meet Molly and Oscar, but as they had never had dogs before they needed time to get to know the dogs and to see if they could manage a pair (also having two very young children).  Visits were made so both sides could get to know each other, and finally a date was set for a trial period in the home.  The dogs were settling very well and I was asked to recommend a trainer to make sure everyone was doing the right thing, and shortly after (trainer) Alice Lau posted this lovely photo of Molly and Oscar saying what sweet dogs they were I received confirmation of their adoption.  Obviously I'm thrilled as well as relieved, because there have still been no other enquiries so this had to be the right home for them - and it was.

Cello always empties the water bowls

Maybe it was just a dream or wishful thinking, but I thought I heard some rain in the early hours of this morning.  Either way by the time I got up it was hot and sunny, and that's the way it stayed.   It's going to be another scorcher at Whiskers N Paws by the looks of it, and we'll be busy filling the water bowls so Cello can dig the water straight back out again.  Maybe a bigger "pool" is needed, but not as much as homes for the puppies.

We have lovely puppies of all ages so please come along to meet them all, 2pm to 5pm on the terrace at Whiskers N Paws, 10/F Horizon Plaza, Ap Lei Chau.  Take a look at last week's photo album for an idea of who's available, plus some new babies not yet seen
