Only two weeks to go! I'm talking about Peak to Fong of course, and the time is just flying by as usual. I think I have just enough time to recover from a huge black eye I got when I ran into a glass door thinking the door was open and finding out it was definitely not. Now I look like a panda, but at least the door survived. Please don't leave it too late to buy your T-shirt-tickets for this amazing event, as they're selling fast.
Eric Tang was our volunteer photographer at today's Puppy Party, and you can see the wonderful shots here Puppy Adoption Day 10th Nov 2024. We also received a lovely Twopresents donation from Muskaan and Shaye who were kind enough to share their birthday with the HKDR puppies.
Of course the shiba puppy Jiro was very popular, but as always we need to remind potential adopters that this breed isn't the easiest as they're strong-willed and can be challenging. If you like a dog that's very intelligent but also with a definite superiority complex, then that's a shiba. Oh, and they shed like crazy.
The second shiba puppy, a girl called Keiko, had been adopted during the week, making her stay with us (or rather Whiskers N Paws where both were sent to) very short.
There have been several adoptions over the past week, and happily two of these were Tai Po dogs, although both Joey (now Oliver) and Navy came to us as young puppies and have grown up at HKDR. Both are incredibly sweet and loving characters, and I know they're going to make the best family members.
Over at Kennedy Town there were also adoptions, and in no particular order the lucky dogs were Della, puppy Izzy and Katie.
We often get dogs arriving in family groups, even if they're not direct siblings. Binky, Blossom, Bonnie, Brenda and Beemer were a small black-and-white family, and one of the adopters arranged a lovely get-together over the weekend:
On 9 November 2021 HKDR rescued a small group of black and white beauties! They were all adopted by wonderful families, and to celebrate their third rescueversary a small gathering was organised. Beemer could not join on this occasion (hopefully they will all meet up at Peak to Fong), but Pippin, Lim Lim, Wonton and Brandy, plus their extended families, had a great time.
