Sun 26th Aug: Happy families

Guess who's the cheeky one? 

We had three adoptions confirmed after a short trial period, the first being the funny-cute French bulldog/poodle brothers now called Sparky and Sprinkles.  They were taken home almost as soon as they were surrendered by their previous owner, and although it's taken a while for them to settle and learn some basic manners (with the help of our trainer Cactus), they are so lovely with the children that the rest is just detail.

Jelly had her adoption confirmed today

Yorkie Jelly was also formally adopted today, and at the other end of the size scale there was happy news about Rolex, now Rolley, who has settled so well in his family of adults-children-dogs-cats and snails that I'm told he is only just above the snails in the pecking order.

One of the puppies staying at our Ap Lei Chau Homing Centre was adopted in the morning, so she didn't have to go to Whiskers N Paws with the other hopefuls.  Tisha is a very sweet girl and I'm always happy to see our slightly older puppies going home as there are always newer babies stealing the limelight.

I mentioned Harper having her adoption confirmed yesterday, and she was one of those babies, and today another little one was chosen over the older puppies.  Parker's family had been to Whiskers N Paws and went to Ap Lei Chau to see the smaller breeds, but fell in love with baby Parker instead and that was it.

Like Harper, baby Parker came to us with tick fever but was adopted anyway

The puppy afternoon at Whiskers N Paws started off outside o the terrace as there was no rain, but the heat was intense that it was too much for both humans and the puppies so we moved indoors. Puppy Adoption Day 26 August 2018
Tiffany Cheung was the volunteer photographer for the event, and as we had quite a few families turning up early and before any other volunteers appeared, Tiffany was also roped in to help with the adoption enquiries for which many thanks.  It was really quite busy from beginning to end, and a challenge for Tiffany to be able to photograph the puppies without including people's legs, arms or other bits.

Misty was the first puppy to be adopted and that was no surprise as she's a smaller sized girl with a huge personality.

Enzo is a kind of Misty lookalike, although bigger and chunkier, and he was also chosen on his very first adoption Sunday.

Enzo's like a bigger version of Misty in looks

Misty is off the available list as of today
