| The 3 month-old bichon baby with a schnauzer haircut |
We seem to be building a collection of small but slightly imperfect puppies at our Ap Lei Chau Homing Centre, with another one due to arrive on Thursday. This time it's a bichon frise baby with paralysed back legs, which we have been told is a genetic defect so we will wait for Dr Tony to take a look and tell us if anything can be done. The puppy is otherwise bright and happy and I'm really hoping there is some kind of surgery that will help the poor little girl walk.

| The 3 slightly imperfect puppies: Maltese Poppet, poodle Toto and pom Moomin |
At least one of the group left the Homing Centre today and that was Dido, the Yorkiepoo who had been surrendered to us with a broken front leg (now fixed).
Another recent Ap Lei Chau addition was adopted today as Maggie the Japanese spitz was chosen to join her new family.

I know what I'm getting Murphy for Christmas, or maybe even just as a "cooler weather" present, after seeing puppy Jill at Whiskers N Paws in their new K9 Sports carrier. It's been a while since Murphy's been able to join our morning walk, since the last Typhoon 10 we had which brought down trees across the path and prevented me from being able to use the buggy. That was last year, and while Murphy still walks up to the woods every day and has a good sniff (of wild boar scent from the night before), he can't make the whole walk and he's too heavy to carry for an hour. I know he'll be thrilled to be able to ride on my back and breathe in the atmosphere of the hike, with occasional stops for a walk on the path.
