Moses and Amber have been adopted |
I received a lovely update about one of our mixes today, and I remember Chelsea very well as she reminded me so much of my dog Griffin, a real character and quite unique in his personality and behaviour.

"Hello, this is Akiko, Chelsea’s adopted mom. I hope this finds you and all the dogs at hkdr well, despite this crazy and challenging situation.
I’m writing to update you on Chelsea’s move to Kyoto, Japan. After our dramatic exit from Hong Kong in mid-March (flight cancelled, change all documents for the dogs, rearrange pick up services, etc), we have arrived here surprisingly smoothly, and we’ve been enjoying the cherry blossoms in our new neighborhood. Chelsea is doing great, as beautiful and affectionate as ever. She get a lot of compliments from people on street."
There's such a huge variation in dogs, even more than in humans as there are all sizes from tiny to giant, short and long coats, ears that flop or stand up, and especially in the mixed breeds each one has their own special character. Even after so many years and having seen hundreds of puppies grow into adult dogs, I'm still fascinated by them and how they develop their individual quirks and behaviour, even those that have lived with me since they were babies and have all had exactly the same opportunities.
