There's a slight delay in receiving the photos from today's Small Dog Adoption events at Whiskers N Paws, so I'll just have to tell you that terrier Murray was adopted, while corgi cross Milo went for a short trial adoption to see how he gets on with the resident dog.
There was also another trial adoption for little Annie at Kennedy Town, following the adoption of Tilly, who came to us at the same time as Annie. Both of these girls would have been at the adoption afternoon, but they were lucky enough to be picked up before the event.
Tiny newcomer Pammy left to go to her new foster home, and hopefully she also won't be coming back.
Terrier Wiska is enjoying the company of dog friends in her new foster home, and I'm happy that she settled so quickly after having to move from her previous foster home. At the moment she's due to fly to the US in October, but if we can get her on an earlier flight it would be much better for everyone. As much as she's clearly having fun in her new temporary home, we don't want her to feel too upset at being uprooted yet again after more than a month of getting to know her family and the environment.
As you can tell, the small dogs are usually pretty lucky when it comes to finding new homes regardless of their age or health condition. Even if some of them have to wait a while, in the end they almost always get the opportunity to begin their lives again in real homes. Unfortunately, it's the larger dogs, and I'm talking about the mixed breeds here, that have to wait, and even then the chances are that they will end their days at the Tai Po Homing Centre.
That's why we're all very happy to announce the adoption of Ritzy, who hasn't actually been staying at Tai Po but in a foster home. Now her parents have joined the Failed Foster Club, an exclusive group of people with one thing in common, a commitment to a forever home for their previously temporary charges.
