Thurs 18th April: No break over Easter

Jonny is a very happy and active boy
I didn't know when the day started that I would be taking two poodles and four puppies out of AFCD, but I should never make plans assuming anything.   Luckily all of the new recruits are happy and friendly, even though one of the poodles (really a cross of something curly-coated) has an eye problem which will need treatment.  All six were settled in at our Ap Lei Chau Homing Centre by the end of the day having been checked and vaccinated, and given their standard worming tablets plus tick/flea prevention.  I hope they all slept well during the storm that followed, as I know my own Lamma dogs were keen to get inside, even those who normally prefer to stay out until the very last minute.

Gavin loves attention and is a very sweet boy

We had a few offers of a foster home for baby Slipper, for which many thanks, and she was picked up by late afternoon.  We're hoping given the large number of puppies now staying at our Homing Centre that others will be able to take the place of Slipper in the reserve foster homes, or even better that we'll see some adoptions over the Easter holiday weekend.  Both Homing Centres are open as usual from 10am to 6pm, with the Saturday and Sunday puppy afternoons at Concordia Pet Care and Whiskers N Paws respectively.
