Mon 27th May: Come while there's full stock

The pups are old enough to be adopted
I took the new dogs for their licensing and health checks today, and all of the adults are young while the tiny pups were at least old enough to be microchipped and vaccinated.  Although they came with a dog we were told was the mother, it seems unusual that there would be not a single baby that had her colouring, and since she's not really producing milk I strongly supect she's just a foster parent.  The pups suckle for comfort but they're actually eating baby food quite happily.  That means they are ready for adoption although at this stage we would need them to go in pairs, or to be with another dog that would accept a puppy's attention and play.  They are all boys, black-and-white except for a black and fluffy one, Daniel.  They are going to be small sized adults, or small-medium at most.

We have quite a collection of small dogs at Ap Lei Chau
The adults are all very sweet and friendly, especially Fuzzy who is probably only a year old and already spoken for.  Lucky adopter!  Freckles is the only boy and again a lovely and happy little dog, and in fact all of them will make great family members.  Dogs come and go on a regular basis so even if you've visited before and there wasn't anyone suitable on that particular day, please keep checking as the perfect match may well turn up at any time.  You will need to complete the Adoption Questionnaire if not already done, and you can find it on our website www.hongkongdogrescue.com (under Adopt).

Poor Tiggy will be fine after a couple of weeks
We also have black pug Tiggy who is currently in a foster home recovering from her desexing, eye, and knee surgery on both legs, poor girl.  She's another young and very sweet dog who will be an amazing family dog.

Wallis made sure that she was chosen on Sunday
Our little joker Dudley was picked up today, along with his would-be sister Wallis if everything works out over the coming week's trial.  They're both wonderful puppies in their own way, as are all of the others that are still waiting to be chosen.  Dudley's best friend and partner-in-crime, Jenny, will be going to her own foster home this week, while Wallis's lookalike sister Chelsea is already in a foster home and brother Perkins stays at our Homing Centre.  They are both brilliant puppies, highly recommended (by me).
