Mon 17th Feb: Hooray at last for Fred!

Fred has waited a very long time for his adoption
Despite these difficult times I have some lovely and very happy stories to share, the first being confirmation of "Freddy McFatty's" adoption after many years of waiting.  Fred the beagle/basset had been living on Lamma since leaving our Pokfulam Kennels in 2010 and was lucky enough to be offered a long-term foster with one of our previous adopters.  All was going well until the company the foster worked for decided to relocate to Singpaore due to the ongoing protests at the time, so Fred was going to have to return to Lamma until another foster home was offered.  Now that home is going to become Fred's forever family, and I'm incredibly happy and grateful that he's been given that chance at the ripe old age of fourteen.


We have two dogs leaving our Tai Po Homing Centre for overseas adoptions, with Celeste heading off today for Switzerland and her new life with another ex-HKDR adopter from Pokfulam Kennels days.  Celeste and her family-to-be have never actually met, but she looks very much like their previous dog and she's such a sweetheart I'm sure it's going to be love at first sight.

Remy is also going to be flying off to his new life in another country, this time in Norway, and again Remy is such a lovely boy I know he's just a perfect fit for his new family.

Ferris
We had adoption confirmation of foster dogs that came to us being quite sick but are now fully recovered, and they are poodle Ferris and cockapoo Cara, both lovely and very sweet characters.

Although we had a very successful puppy adoption day on Sunday https://www.facebook.com/hkdogrescue/videos/508203953435500/ (with many thanks to Marco Lam for the lovely video), we have new recruits arriving from AFCD on Tuesday to take the spaces of those lucky ones that left.  As always we would really appreciate foster homes if you can accommodate little guests, and you can get all details from Cindy by emailing foster@hongkongdogrescue.com
