I've just realised that this is the last weekend of March and it will be summer before we know it, so make the most of the reasonable temperatures before the sweltering heat starts, something I'm not looking forward to.
To add to the two ex-foster puppies already returned, Lemon and Ramen, we have six more "Edibles" coming back on Sunday so it will be a full house again at Ap Lei Chau. These puppies will almost certainly grow into larger-sized adults so please be aware of that when thinking about adoption. As always start by completing the questionnaire at www.hongkongdogrescue.com/adopt/adoption-questionnaire/ if you're interested.

We had one small adoption at our Ap Lei Chau Homing Centre today with little pom Jingle heading off to start her new life.

We were so relieved to get a sweet update about poodle Bell and how he was getting on, and it's both happy and sad to know that in the right home all of our "Red" dogs can be fine, just as they are with the volunteers they know and trust. All it takes is some understanding of their behaviour and the reasons for it, and to avoid those situations that can result in problems. For example, if a dog has food guarding issues then make sure you don't approach while the dog is eating, and wait until he/she walks away from the bowl before removing it. Whatever it is that the dog doesn't like or reacts to, just don't do it. Problems almost always arise because adopters try to start training too soon, and before the dog has started to feel comfortable and relaxed. Just give it time and things will work out.
