Sat 2nd Nov: Concordia and more new puppies

May is one of the Seasons Litter, all small-sized puppies and so lovely

Rodger So was once again our volunteer photographer for the afternoon's adoption event at Concordia Pet Care in Happy Valley, and here's the album for you too look through Puppy Adoption Day 2 November 2019 especially if you're planning to come to Whiskers N Paws on Sunday where we'll have even more little ones for you to meet.   The first of the Seasons Litter was adopted today, and there will be more joining on Sunday, but one face will be missing from the afternoon's gathering as I can now confirm Zara's official adoption after a very short trial when everything worked out brilliantly.

Zara is one of the "Z Litter" who came to us as very tiny babies, extra small and not only because of their age.  Tragically they arrived at a time when we were dealing with an outbreak of the distemper virus, and all five were infected with two not surviving.  The remaining pair, Zeb and Zena, battled through and made it, but Zena in particular has been left with the neurological twitch which is a sure sign of past distemper.  Remembering when we last had such an outbreak back in the days of our Pokfulam Kennels, the twitch usually improves over time and doesn't affect the health or quality of life once a puppy has survived the virus, and with Zeb and Zena being really quite small in size even as young adults I really hope someone will fall in love with these two Mini Mutts who are staying at our Ap Lei Chau Homing Centre.  Zara was the lucky one who made it through with no effects at all.

Another lucky dog was adopted at the Homing Centre,  having arrived only on Thursday from AFCD.  Poodle Nancy has settled really well and I'm sure she can look foward to a very happy life.

Replacing those who were leaving, we took in five new puppies and a French bulldog boy.  He has no microchip so we'll have to get that sorted as well as his rabies vaccination, health check and regular vaccinations, but he seems quite young and healthy if also very thin.  The puppies are also very cute but will need to be checked and chipped before being available for adoption.
