Weds 24th Jan: Yes we open every single day of the year

I'm already impatient for Chinese New Year to arrive and then be over as we face the same problem at this time of year as we do at Christmas and New Year, that is families heading off for a holiday away from Hong Kong so delaying adoption until later.  Apart from being somewhat envious,  it's the dogs and puppies that I worry about, especially as this is the one Sunday of the year when Whiskers N Paws will be closed.  At least we have puppies at the Ap Lei Chau Homing Centre at the moment as well as the new giant pups at Tai Po, and both Centres are open every single day of the year regardless of the weather or Public Holidays.

As I missed posting Ryan Kam's photos from last Sunday's puppy afternoon on Monday, I'm going to share them again so you can take a look at the many lovely babies that are waiting for homes even if I haven't been able to caption them all yet.
Hong Kong Dog Rescue (HKDR) added 111 new photos to the album Puppy Adoption Day 21 January 2018 — at Whiskers N Paws
Of the larger and fluffier pair I can't tell who is Ted and which one is Paddington, but I can say that they are both very beautiful as well as having great temperaments.  There are three more left in this litter of eight originally, and they have short hair.  There's boy Ollie and sisters Cello and Viola, and I strongly suspect there's some Rhodesian Ridgeback in this family as the short-coated sisters have a very clear and definite "ridge" as well as being that distinctive chestnut colour.  Come to Whiskers N Paws on Sunday and meet them all, we're there from 2pm to 5pm.

Volunteers Needed!
