Fri 23rd Nov: Last call for Sunday's big event

I had what I thought was an emergency vet case with one of my many Lamma dogs, Cajun, so I dropped everything else to get her to Acorn to have her eye checked.  I assumed she would need surgery, which in fact she does, but it turned out that the "balloon" in her eye wasn't a new thing, it was only that it had really just become big enough to be noticeable.  Rather than operating immediately Cajun will be booked in for another day to see if her eye can be saved, and if not then I'll have another one-eyed dog at home.

Soft as a brush Jerome 

I ended up going to AFCD anyway as I had various licenses to sort out, one of them being for rottweiler Jerome, who had come to us as one of a pair, the second one being Jessica.  Both of these dogs are absolute sweethearts and it's always a shame that so many think of this breed as being aggressive and ferocious when they are naturally the opposite.  Today Jerome was heading off for a trial adoption, and I hope Jessica can find her own family too before too long as she too is just a big softie.

It's on Sunday!!!

Peak to Fong 2018 has obviously been taking up a lot of everyone's time and focus, and I would like to give a mention to our staff members Eva and Ka Yan who have been working like crazy to make this event run smoothly, especially as they were also doing the same for the Gala which took place in October.  I must also acknowledge the team of volunteers for all of their behind-the-secenes organising, and I know they will all be breathing a huge sigh of relief once the event is completed.  Thanks too to our fantastic sponsors who have donated the T-shirts, great prizes and lots of free gifts, and to the bands who will be there to entertain us at Lan Kwai Fong.

“Rabbits & Dogs Get Along!” That’s right, for one day only: This Sunday November 25th Lan Kwai Fong. Come support Hong Kong Dog Rescue at their 15th annual “Peak to the Fong”.

Join the walk, after party or both! Atlantis Philharmonic hits the stage at 12:30 followed by Jack Rabbit Slim at 2:15. Bring the family and support a great cause for our four legged furry friends!

In case you think that everthing else stops when we have such a big event going on, it doesn't, as our two Homing Centres are open as usual as well as the Whiskers N Paws puppy afternoon on Sunday 2pm to 5pm.  After all, this is all for the dogs and puppies anyway so they will always be our priority.
