Only happy news today other than one unfortunate return after Samuel was found wandering in Central so is now back at Tai Po with us. We don't know how it happened but that doesn't matter now as he's thankfully safe, and at least we know that he's a very easy boy and completely toilet trained (according to his ex would-be adopter). Samuel is young, lovely, good-natured and we want to find him a real forever family as soon as possible.
Now for the many adoptions from our Ap Lei Chau Homing Centre, which includes a double, that of brothers Otto and Radar, and two more "Water Babies", Lagoon and Water. We now have just two of that litter needing homes, and once again I want to thank their foster parents for having done such a wonderful job of caring for the babies when they were rescued in early August. It's incredibly rewarding to see these stories unfold and watching the puppies thrive and grow, and then move on to becoming real family members.
One more puppy also had her adoption paperwork completed after being chosen the other day, and that lucky girl is Mindy.
Two more puppies also went for short trials, both to homes where there was already a resident ex-HKDR dog, or in the case of Google, dogs. Smiffy has gone to live with ex-Tai Po boy Rafferty, so hopefully we can post confirmed adoption photos very soon.
It wasn't all puppies today, as poodle Samson was taken home by his new family. Samson had been one of those common cases of a poodle that had already been in many unsuitable homes, passed on again and again, so by the time he was brought to us at the age of only two years he was not only very anxious and nervous, but he was also not at all well. He was taken for fostering until his health was restored and he could be desexed before being ready for adoption, so once again thanks to his foster parents for looking after him during that period. His new family came twice to make sure Samson was going to be a good match, as we wanted to be sure that this was going to be his final and forever move.
