Sun 25th Dec: Happy Christmas for Lisbeth

Lisbeth-Lizzy had the best Christmas present ever

I don't know where Lisbeth came from other than AFCD Sheung Shui, and they told me she had been picked up as a stray.  Someone had obviously had her as a young puppy as she's the most affectionate doglet who loves absolutely everyone, but whatever her past she now has a happy future with the family who adopted her and took her home today with the new name of Lizzy.

Obviously our Homing Centres were open today, just as we are open every other day of the year.  We'll also be at Whiskers N Paws on Sunday for the last puppy afternoon of 2018 if you are looking for a new family member to bring home.  The weather forecast is predicting cold weather so we'll probably be indoors with the younger ones.

Rain or cold, we can be indoors at Whiskers N Paws

For those of you who are keen to help but can't actually adopt or foster, please remember we have a monthly sponsorship programme called the Life Saver Club.  You can find out more by going to our website www.hongkongdogrescue.com or emailing volunteer Ellen at lifesaver@hongkongdogrescue.com for details.

Other very simple ways to support are by collecting newspapers and bringing to either of our Homing Centres, or by depositing unwanted coins at any Coin Dragon machine.   I suspect many of you have a pile of small change at home, so why not use it to help the dogs?  For a full and updated list of Coin Dragon locations you can check here https://www.facebook.com/pg/coindragonHK/locations/?ref=page_internal

Coming up in 2019 we'll be selling our beautiful Chinese New Year Red Packets of course, and later on we'll be asking for volunteers for the HKDR Flag Day which takes place on 6th April.

There are many ways that you can help and support, so please just let us know if you are willing and able.

For today it just remains for me to wish everyone a wonderful Happy Christmas, especially those of you who share your home and life with an adopted dog.  Adoption really does save lives, and what greater gift can anyone give than that.
