Weds 29th Nov: Boris the 2 year-old bulldog needs help

Coco-now-Gigi and new brother Jax

The adoption of the pointer girl Coco, now Gigi, was confirmed today, and looking at the photos you can see what the immediate attraction was as the dogs look like peas in a pod.  Jax, a mixed breed, was adopted from us as a puppy a couple of years ago and grew into a beautiful adult who seems to have accepted his new sister very easily.

Every HKDR dog's dream

We seem to have had a run of dogs being adopted and quickly returned, and it has created a real problem at the Ap Lei Chau Homing Centre in terms of space.  Even the six month-old corgi puppy Candy came back, not for any reason other than she was too lively, something that any puppy adopter must surely expect.

Yes, puppies are full of energy

Boris is becoming seriously depressed and needs a home PLEASE!

Boris the bulldog is starting to suffer anxiety-related itchy skin after he was returned, and we really need to move him into a home or foster very soon.  Some dogs just can't deal with being in a kennel-like environment and Boris is one of them.  We were told he doesn't like children but at our Homing Centre he's been very sweet, and there must be many child-free homes for young bulldogs like Boris so please get in touch or come to meet him.  He is really a lovely boy with adults and very affectionate.

The beagles are also too energetic to be penned, and it's not fair on them when they are lovely dogs with no behaviour issues, just a need for exercise and company.

We're at the end of the month and beginning to countdown to Christmas and the New Year.  It seems almost impossible to believe that a year has flown by in the blink of an eye, but it's true.  Look out for news on December fairs and events as there's going to be a lot happening during the month, and I know that Whiskers N Paws always puts on a great show for the holiday season including Operation Santa Paws, a wonderful gift donation scheme.

🎈Date: 25Nov – 20Dec
Drop-off: Whiskers N Paws, Horizon Plaza 10/F, Ap Lei Chau

Operation Santa Paws has already begun!

I really hope Scout and his family will find homes soon
