Sun 17th Nov: Two weeks to go!

Topaz went home almost immediately 
We didn't have a van today as our driver Ming had taken the day off, but thanks to the help of volunteers all puppies arrived safely at Whiskers N Paws and there was a large crowd for the early part of the afternoon.  Topaz had been pre-chosen so was quick to be taken home, and out of the Seasons litter it was Spring who was picked to join his lovely new family.  The personalities of these little puppies are quite different, and once again July was full of energy and played non-stop for the full three hours. She always makes me laugh, and if you're looking for a smaller-sized dog who can enjoy long hikes as well as being a really happy and friendly girl, July's the one for you.
Spring and his new family


Brindle puppies were the lucky ones it seems, as another stripey baby, Paula, was taken home for fostering and potential adoption.  If you can foster any puppies please contact Cindy at foster@hongkongdogrescue.com as we have new puppies arriving this coming week and need some help.

Eric Tang is a regular volunteer photographer and he takes wonderful photos for us, and here is his album from the afternoon.  Puppy Adoption Day 17 November 2019 - Part 2   Most of the puppies were inside, but older pups Maddie, Rio and Carla stayed on the terrace to enjoy the space and warm sunshine.  They're all waiting for homes too, so please don't forget them if you're looking for a new family member.  Being just that little bit older everything has already been done in terms of vaccinations and being able to go for walks, so it's a lot easier in many ways.

A second photographer was also there helping out so here's Mary Hsiao's album

Over at our own Ap Lei Chau Homing Centre it was going home day for two lucky dogs, Jason the French bulldog and Tori the chihuahua cross, while a new poodle girl was surrendered in awful condition. 
Tori

We can fix her up so she'll look like a normal dog again but at eleven years old it's very sad that she should end up homeless and with an easily treatable condition.  I've called her Bambi and she'll be starting her treatment immediately.
Poor Bambi will look very different soon 

With just two weeks to go until this year's P2F (Pulse to Fun instead of Peak to Fong) I just want to confirm that the event will be going ahead as planned in a safe environment in Repulse Bay.  We're aware that getting there isn't as easy as the Central location but we want to be able to enjoy a day out without any concerns.  Thanks to our many supportive sponsors there's going to be lots to do and buy, so please come along and join the day's fun.  Remember the T-shirts are the tickets and you can buy online or at any of the outlets selling them, including our two Homing Centres and Whiskers N Paws.
