Tues 25th Feb: Another day of surprises

I expect these little poms will be gone in a flash

Our HKDR van was in the repair shop having this and that done, and we'd all been told it wouldn't be available for two days, yesterday and today, so nobody made any specific plans to go anywhere.  Then I got a message saying the van would be ready by two o'clock, and at the same time received another message from AFCD Sheung Shui telling me there were several dogs and a puppy ready for re-homing, so without having any other jobs to do driver Ming was sent immediately to pick them up.  Now there are three adorable little poms, a poodle and a very unusual puppy at our Ap Lei Chau Homing Centre, with a lovely young adult boy sent to Tai Po.

New 11 year-old poodle

I have never seen a puppy such as this new one, now called Shadow, other than perhaps Aries who was adopted on Sunday and who had odd patches of colour splashed here and there.  Shadow has the same shades of black and grey-brown, but in stripes on her body.   I don't know what colour you would call her when she's licensed.  In fact Shadow and Aries look so similar I suspect Shadow may be from the same litter and got left behind somehow.

Aries had odd patches of a different colour

Another puppy, Bunny, was posted on our HKDR Facebook page and I quickly had to take the post down after receiving so many enquiries about her.  All of our puppies, Bunny included, were at Whiskers N Paws last Sunday, and will be again this coming Sunday, so you can meet them all at the same time and in one place if you're looking to adopt.  I think Bunny will be in a new home by Sunday, but there are so many other beautiful youngsters available so please come along to meet them.

Oscar is adopted again

I mentioned that Oscar and Sidney were being returned after having been adopted, and they were duly brought back to our Ap Lei Chau Homing Centre.  Happily for Oscar his available status was quickly changed back to adopted again as he was chosen to go home with another family.

I should also mention that we have a full quota of potental homes for the baby bichon-cross family, especially as the foster parents will be keeping one themselves.  I hope we'll have more small-sized puppies before too long so please keep reading for news of new arrivals.  You'll see everything here first!
