Thurs 31st Dec: Lucky 44 again, and 457 making a Happy News Year

 Forty four seems to be a regular - and for the dogs a lucky number - meaning those who have found their forever homes during the month, and December's total brings the year's tally to four hundred and fifty seven adoptions, yay!

We had some last minute adoptions at Ap Lai Chau with puppies Tuffin and Marlon heading off to celebrate the New Year with their families, and even after the cut-off time there were two further foster-to-adopted confirmations.  

They will be added to the January 2021 figure, as will the other adoptions we know are going to be happening on Friday.   Here's a video round-up of some of the happy dogs for 2020, with apologies to those not included: https://youtu.be/VNlEQ9ILcfA

It wouldn't be a normal HKDR day if there weren't new arrivals to take the place of those leaving, and today's three came from the same soon-to-be-closing warehouse where the dogs were kept outside and slept amongst the piles of junk in the yard.  In fact they're so used to having only the hard ground to sleep on that after they arrived at Tai Po and were given soft beds and warm blankets, they didn't know that they could use them and lay on the bare floor instead.  I hope that during the very cold night they crept onto the softer option. 

Happy New Year to everyone!
