Tues 23rd Feb: Two trials confirmed as forever homes

There is more happy adoption news to share today, starting with two Tai Po dogs who were in trial homes.  The first one, Ellie, hasn't been with us for too long and came as an obvious recent mother.  Here's her update:  

"Ellie has been with us for close to 3 weeks now. In the first couple of days, she started off a little shy, nervous and sometimes jumpy around our 9 year old daughter Jasmine. Ellie loves her walks but was very cautious and would avoid other dogs and little kids. Ellie was a sweet dog and thanks to Cactus' advice and the 3-3-3, we knew she just needed some time to adjust and trust us. 

In the past week Ellie has gained a lot more confidence and she is getting used to her new environment and routine. She walks nicely on the leash and would stop and stay whenever we ask her to. She would now even occasionally say hi to other dogs. She wags her tail with lots of enthusiasm and greets us with kisses in the morning. She also loves her belly rubs.

Thank you so much for giving us such a rewarding experience fostering Ellie and seeing her getting more confidence, stronger and healthier by the days.  We have fallen in love with Ellie and we would love to adopt her and give her a forever home."

The second happy adoption was that of senior dog Sylvester, and this is how we got the confirmation:

"Thank you for all your suggestions. Everything makes sense

It seems now that Sylvester has found his routine and rhythm... his diarrhea has stopped and I feel that he is feeling more relaxed both at home and when he is at the studio with me. 

We would also like to officially adopt Sylvester.... and we are very excited to have him as part of our family! "

At our Ap Lei Chau Homing Centre it was a big day for another one of the nine poodles that came as a group.  Lilac was the lucky girl who started her new life today, with the prospect of moving to Canada in the future. 

For puppy Faith her going home was really going back, as she's returning to the foster-now-forever home she spent her baby weeks in.   I'm sure she'll be happy to return to the place she's already so familiar with.
