Thurs 29th April: Busy all day again

 The van and driver were non-stop today with nine Tai Po dogs heading over the the Ap Lei Chau Vet Clinic (ALCVC) first thing for their initial check-ups and vaccinations, and a further four needing to go from the Ap Lei Chau Homing Centre in the afternoon.  In between these appointments driver Ming had to go to Sai Kung to pick up an unknown (at the time) number of puppies and/or dogs which were coming via Catherine's Puppies, as Catherine herself had just taken in several rottweiler puppies. In the end we took ten puppies, and luckily had an empty upstairs room at the Homing Centre which they could fit into, at least temporarily until they'd seen a vet and had been checked over. 

Teatime after a long day for the puppies

I know there's going to be a lot of interest in these puppies, other than one who appears to be blind, but we have to go through applications that have previously come in and contact adopters who have been patiently waiting for a long time.  

Malcolm is 2 year old

I also forgot to mention a beautiful young and large-sized adult that we took from AFCD Pokfulam on the same day as the three beautiful puppies.  Now called Malcolm (have to admit that's not a name I gave), this handsome boy is definitely a German shepherd-cross, healthy and ready to go to a new home. 

Caramel heading home

Luckily it's not all incomings as  Tanner, Zoe, Warren and Baguette are all leaving from Tai Po in the next day or so, while puppy Caramel was taken home today. 

Our Homing Centres are open as always every single day of the year, but please make sure you complete the adoption questionnaire and receive a reply before coming to meet the dogs and puppies: www.hongkongdogrescue.com/adopt/adoption-questionnaire/  The same applies to Sunday's Whiskers N Paws puppy afternoon, 2pm to 4pm.
