Fri 26th Oct: Happy little stories

There were a few nice surprises today, one being that I realised quite late in the day that it was Friday, not Thursday as I'd had in my head due to the fact that I'd had to be on Lamma on my usual working day. 

There had also been some very happy updates about recently adopted smaller dogs, one being older puppy Nattie who had to be accepted by, as well as accept, the resident cat.  She had started off being a bit scared of the strange animal that wasn't another dog, and she had to learn everything about her new home and life of course, which included going for walks in unfamiliar places. Now this:

Lovely Nattie is fitting right in

"Just to keep you updated that Nattie had a fantastic week.  She learned to walk steep stairs, she went outside for walks, most importantly, she is settling down with our cat and not afraid any more. She is becoming more playful with our cat and very curious."

As a reminder, Nattie's brother Frisbee is still available for adoption and he is just like his sister except for the colouring.  Frisbee is staying at our Ap Lei Chau Homing Centre full time and will be at Whiskers N Paws on Sunday if you'd like to meet him. 

Frisbee is also a petite size

The second dog was the senior dachshund (without a tail) Heidi.  She also had to fit in with the already-resident dogs.  

Heidi looks comfortable enough!

"Wanted to drop you another quick update.  Obviously, we are past the trial period for Heidi – I hope you took our silence as confirmation that we are very happy with her and want her to stay as part of the family J !

She’s very settled, continues to get on well with all the other dogs.  She’s still full of energy and enjoying her daily trips to the beach and walks around Lamma."

We don't know why Heidi has no tail

Amigo the poodle is now Milo and also already a real part of the family, while schnauzer Pixel also won the adoption lottery : "Thought I would give you an update in case you wondered.   Pixel is doing great and has settled in.  He loves our garden and sleeps with my son every night on his bed.   Very loving and friendly dog."

Please keep sending us your successful adoption stories because it not only makes us happy but it also encourages others to adopt instead of buying. 

Two very happy boys!
