Sun 23rd Feb: Such lovely puppies

We love double adoptions! 

After a blustery start to the day it turned beautifully sunny in time for the puppy afternoon at Whiskers N Paws, and there was a good turnout of people.  We had two new litters to introduce, one being the Zodiac family, and siblings Aries and Scorpio were quickly chosen to go home together.  In fact by the end of the afternoon there was only one puppy left who hadn't been offered a foster home and that was Taurus, another of the Zodiacs.  There were two volunteer photographers for the afternoon, Aaron Howland  Puppy Adoption Day 23 February 2020 - Part 2 and Laura Nie  Puppy Adoption Day 23 February 2020 - Part 1, and thank you to both for such happy captures.  I'll be adding all of the names as soon as I can, but if you're interested in any of the puppies shown before that happens you can just send a photo of the one you particularly like.

Hazel's flopped-over ears are standing up now

I have to admit I was captivated by little Hazel who has grown - or rather not grown much - into such an adorable pixie pup who adores her lovely foster parents.   If you're looking for a puppy who won't be anything larger than medium sized as an adult, maybe Hazel is the one for you.  In fact she reminds me a lot of Rio, who today moved back to Whiskers N Paws as a full time guest, along with Google.  Currently slightly smaller than Rio I suspect Google will quickly overtake her in size.

There was another very happy and special adoption at Whiskers N Paws today, not a puppy but an older dog who's been with HKDR for a good few years.  She needed surgery on both legs some time ago and went to a foster home to recover, where she stayed for several months, in fact until the foster parent had to leave Hong Kong.

You can see Ellie's not exactly relaxed! 

We really didn't want Elle to come back to Tai Po and were lucky enough to find a new foster home, which today became for ever.  We're all so grateful to her new family for giving Elle, now Ellie, this dreamed-for chance, especially as she's quite a timid dog who isn't suitable for most families.  Thank you adopter!

One more older puppy I really want to mention is Adele, or Addy for short.  She's been in a great foster home for a few months and is now fully trained, loving, funny, sweet and incredibly happy.  She adores her foster mama of course, and is very much loved in return, but unfortunately adoption isn't possible.  Addy-Adele needs a home, and I can promise you won't be disappointed.

Typical Adele, such a happy girl
