| Paisley is now a full family member |
It was another very hot day and both Homing Centres were busy with visitors, although most of the confirmed adoptions were dogs already in foster. They are German shepherd Paisley, mixed breed Socks and shy Kimmy, now Kimi. All three are now officially family members, with Socks even having a rabbit and guinea pig as his new siblings. I remember him when he was at AFCD and he was so scared it was touch-and-go as to whether he would even be considered suitable for re-homing, so to see him now and knowing what a complete change took place the minute he left the government kennels makes me sad for all the other dogs like him who were never given the chance to prove themselves.

Kimmy-now-Kimi was one of three TNR (Trap, Neuter and Return) dogs, who were friendly enough to have missed the "R" part and kept by the volunteers who help with desexing as many stray dogs as possible. The other two dogs that arrived at the Ap Lei Chau Homing Centre with him were Pebble and Dobby, with Pebble being the most confident. It only took a day or so for him to be asking for petting and atention, and while a lot of potential adopters showed interest and asked about him, today was the day he actually left to start his new life.

Puppy Amanda was also adopted, and for the second time. It wasn't anything to do with her, rather newly-imposed restrictions on allowing dogs in their soon-to-be home in Singapore. Although the family weren't moving just yet they felt it was better to return Amanda while she was still a young puppy, and as it happened there had been another family who had narrowly missed out on adopting her the first time round, so it all worked out perfectly.
