Sat 27th April: Happy faces despite the rain

A happy face on Cribbage today
I was relieved to see that new dog Cribbage has already overcome her first day fears, and the photo Andrea sent me from our Ap Lei Chau Homing Centre showed a happy, smiling face rather than the worried look from before.  Like all of the other small-sized dogs (and puppies), Cribbage is staying at our Ap Lei Chau Homing Centre, open every single day from 10am to 6pm if you want to visit.
Timmy is small and a lovely, happy boy


We thought we were going to be sending terrier Timmy off to his trial home today as everything had been arranged after many and very long discussions about everything that he may or may not like, habits, training and so on, and pick up had been confirmed.  However when I checked my emails there was one from the potential foster/adopter saying she had taken a poodle from another organisation instead.  This happens from time to time, although perhaps not when a firm arrangement had already been made, and of course it's disappointing.  What made this case special was that I subsequently found out that the same promise and arrangement had been made with at least one other group who were also expecting this woman to take home a pair of small dogs who urgently needed a place to go, so she had been doing the rounds of the organisations.   At least we were relieved that Timmy didn't end up there and we know he will find a much better home.  He's a fantastic little dog who loves toys and cuddles, as well as being very cute.

Dudley and Jenny are smaller sized and with great personalities
It looks as though Sunday is going to be rainy again, but please don't let that stop you coming to Whiskers N Paws to meet the puppies as we'll be indoors for the afternoon.  We have so many adorable girls and boys waiting to meet their new families, and many of them are not going to be bigger than medium sized as adults.
