I was going to say we had another crazy day today, but since that's a normal situation I'll just mention that the new dogs turned up at exactly the same time as all of the potential adopters. In fact it wasn't until Sunday morning (meaning just now) that I had any photos or information about the newcomers, one of whom had already been adopted and a second, a poodle, almost certainly leaving first thing on Sunday. Now I have to come up with names that haven't been used a hundred times before.

| An in-and-out puppy |
The in-and-out puppy was the brindle boy mentioned yesterday, so there's no need for a foster home after all.
The terrier whose photo I also shared yesterday is three years old, and there are also a pair of miniature pinschers, not a breed we see much of nowadays. We're told they're four years old but they're overweight and don't seem to have been exercised much (if at all), so they need to get back into shape. Normally these dogs are super-active, so it's a shame to see them so round at such a young age.

| The new intake, all young adults |

| Biffin is a master climber |
Also leaving to start their new lives as family members were poodles Biffin and Zoe, with Dewy being taken for a trial with Zoe to see how she settles in (she has one eye and is a bit timid).

| Zoe is the bigger poodle |
Poodle Zara also left for fostering so she can have her required surgery and recover in a clean and quiet home.

| Where did you get those ears Yaddle? |
Meanwhile, as we prepare for Sunday's Whiskers N Paws Puppy Party, I can announce that the new youngsters Whisker and Paw are already spoken for. At least one will be adopted, and the other will join as a foster puppy until they're a bit older. Instead, big-eared Yaddle will be attending, and once Whisker and Paw have left we have plenty of others in the queue to take their place.
I should also mention that although it seems many dogs are adopted every month, which is wonderful of course, we still have many more still waiting for homes. Our Kennedy Town Centres are packed with all sorts of small and medium-sized dogs, while there are literally hundreds at our big Tai Po Homing Centre.
Please take the first step in the adoption process by completing the questionnaire at www.hongkongdogrescue.com/adopt/adoption-questionnaire/.
