| Dressing-up options are easy for this year's Beatles theme |
The days are slipping by so fast, at least from my perspective, and we're almost at the end of summer and the start of the last quarter of the year when the fundraising season begins. I've already got my outfit sorted for the Sarge'n'Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Gala event in October, and we've got a great evening lined up for this year. In fact there's so much to pack into the event that we're wondering how it's all going to fit, but we'll manage and it's going to be a lot of fun. We have already sold quite a lot of tables, so if you want to book as a group or individual seats please email Nicole at nicole@hongkongdogrescue.com for information.
We get so many adoption enquiries for small breed puppies although it's rare that we have any for adoption. If we do get a surrendered small-sized pup it's always an in-and-out case as we have a waiting list of potential homes, although we currently have three little ones with another apparently coming soon. I've just received a message about taking in an eight month-old Yorkie-poodle cross with a broken leg, so he (or she) can join our group of not-quite-perfect youngsters.

| Toto the poodle pup is improving all the time |
Two of these puppies came to us at the same time as breeder rejects, one being a poodle boy, Toto, and the other a blind Maltese girl, Poppet. At first we thought it was Toto who had the more serious neurological condition, but after a wait-and-see period he's the one who's improving while Poppet is a concern. Toto is a typical puppy, happy and playful, and while his legs sometimes fail to keep him upright he's allowed to run around with the other small dogs and have fun. With Poppet we'll send her for an MRI to see if there's anything going on in her brain that is too serious to be able to treat, and I really hope that's not the case.
Please visit our HKDR Facebook page for videos of the puppies.
