Tues 19th Jan: A quick catch-up


 I wasn't able to post photos of the new arrivals from AFCD yesterday, but here they are and the puppies even have names now.  As mentioned they all went straight to foster homes while their mother, Ellie, and the husky, Jubilee, are at Tai Po.  Neither of the adults were licensed before leaving AFCD so their ages were estimated by the vet at the Animal Management Centre.  Ellie is around two years and Jubilee around six. 

Ellie is the mother of the 6 puppies

Jubilee is around 6 years and female

You may remember the three dogs we took in recently who had previously been living in a warehouse junkyard.  Google has now been adopted while Chuckle has gone to a foster home where he's currently learning how to live an indoor life (with regular walks of course). 

Google has been adopted


The standard poodle I'd written about before was brought to us today, but she's very seriously ill despite being a young dog.  I believe it's due to malnutrition in her previous home and we were warned by the vets at Concordia Pet Care where Peyton was immediately taken to that she may not survive as her kidneys are very badly damaged.  It's going to be expensive to treat her as she'll require intensive care, but we all want to give it our best shot.  It's hard not to feel anger at people who buy expensive puppies and then don't take proper care of them, and Peyton deserved better.  I'll keep you updated on her condition. 

Finally, I have been reinstated by Facebook after having been inexplicably banned so I can go back to posting my blog and replying to messages!
