Sun 31st Oct: 55 Reasons to be happy

Jolie looks very happy 

 You must know that nothing makes me happier than to see the larger-sized adults from Tai Po being chosen, and thanks to their glowing references from the Typhoon Foster homes there were two such adoptions today.  One was Jolie and the other Hershey, both lovely dogs and fully deserving of a happy life and family home.  Thank you to their adopters for giving them this chance.
Hershey is also adopted

 

Although not having made the actual move yet, border collie Shep will also have his adoption formalised after time spent in a wonderful foster home and a successful adoption interview.  Who knows what his story is, as he was found wandering in Ap Lei Chau, and when traced his registered owner said he gave the dog away years ago.  Shep's adoption won't be counted in the October total (see below) but it will start November off nicely. 

Raisin is one of the "R" group 

Benjamin Po was the volunteer photographer at Whiskers N Paws today, and even though it was quiet (as expected due to it being Halloween) the puppies still had a great time Puppy Adoption Day 31st Oct 2021.  There were familiar faces as well as several new ones, including very pretty Raisin and Tate, both of whom are staying at our Ap Lei Chau Homing Centre.

Tate came with the "T" group


Charlie found his forever family









One of the dogs adopted from Ap Lei Chau had been with us for a while, comparatively at least, but today was Charlie's big moment as he was chosen to join his new family.

Also leaving was Rex, one of the "R" intake and a very sweet boy. 

Rex was chosen today


It was also the second day of the Halloween event at the Sai Wan Ho Waterfront Park, and although I don't have any photos to share yet I'm sure it was a great day out for many families and their dogs. 

With Halloween well and truly over we can start to look forward to Christmas and the New Year, so as an early suggestion for useful gifts for everyone....
