Sun 29th Aug: Before, during and after adoptions

 

Angus was the lucky WNP puppy

Angus was the only adoption at the event itself but that didn't mean that there weren't a lot of potential adopters who came to meet the puppies, and shortly afterwards I received an email from one of them saying they had fallen in love with Meg, one of the foster puppies making their debut today.

Thanks to Elena Mathew for being the volunteer photographer at  Whiskers N Paws today, as well as the Photography Coordinator who organises the schedule for the Sunday afternoon events (in case there are any photographers reading this who would like to donate some time and skills). Here's the album of today's puppy party for you to browse through  Puppy Adoption Day 29th August 2021.

Shimmer is a beautiful girl

I'm not sure if it was a coincidence or planned, but two sisters were chosen at our Tai Po Homing Centre.  They are the Campsite Dogs from Cheung Chau, comprising a mother and her daughters, all looking very different from each other as often happens.  Shimmer left today to start her new life while Glitter will go during the week after her adoption paperwork was completed to seal the deal. 

Lyra 

I can't ever explain what it is about a particular dog or puppy that attracts someone to adopt.  I know I love the fuzzy look myself, but there are others that make me melt too, like Lyra, one of the three sisters that recently came to us.  Maybe it's her big ears and spindly long legs, I really can't say.  It's lucky that, as the saying goes, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, meaning everyone has a chance to be loved.
