Sat 30th July: Rounding up the month of July

Jolene is happy to be in a home

 Another month has flown by, and I'm always keen to hear from (Little) Eva how many dogs and puppies have found their homes, and how many we've taken in.  At least for this weekend I can confirm that Jolene was adopted from North Street, Kennedy Town, and puppy Esme from Whiskers N Paws, with the very funny and entertaining pug couple being picked up together first thing on Sunday.  More about that tomorrow. 

Esme has been staying at WNP

Puppy Jeremy who arrived as one of the "J" group is also going home on Sunday, so all of these will make the July list of the lucky ones.

 Please note from Jolene's adoption photo that the front of our North Street location has no proper signage yet, so we have temporarily placed small HKDR signs in the windows.  There is no large shop front as this is primarily going to be our office, even if we will always have some dogs staying there.

The additional new dogs that were supposed to be coming today didn't turn up, and we're now expecting them on Sunday instead.  These are a young poodle, a senior chihuahua and a 7-month Australian shepherd puppy, as well as the paralysed puppy who's already booked in at Concordia.  There's also a blind puppy, and while that sounds awful, my previous born-blind blind dog, Roley, lived a perfectly normal life, even chasing and catching balls.  His ears and other senses completely compensated for his lack of eyesight, so much so that nobody ever believed me when I told them he couldn't see a thing.  

The new pug also came today,  four years old and currently staying at our Ap Lei Chau "Red Dog Centre".  I haven't come up with names for any of the new dogs yet, but remember we have recently-arrived dogs ready to go any time.

Once again, please complete the adoption questionnaire as a first step if you're interested in any of our dogs and puppies, giving as much information as you can.  The form is at www.hongkongdogrescue.com/adopt/adoption-questionnaire/

Sunday is Whiskers N Paws day of course, and this week we'll be sending some of our beautiful puppies from our Kennedy Town Homing Centre to try their luck, and to experience the fun of the big terrace (assuming the weather's not too hot).
