Sun 1st Sept: New month, new puppies, new dogs

 There's no such thing as a weekend off in the world of dog rescue and re-homing, and it was as busy as ever today with visitors to the Homing Centres, as well as Whiskers N Paws for the puppy party. Eric Tang was there to record the debut of the most recent litter of Rain Babies, the foundlings rescues after the heavy rain a month ago, and due to a scheduling mix-up, another long-term regular was also there and Jimmy Tsang's set of photos will be uploaded later today.  Both were able to photograph the adoption of Carly, a very lucky girl, and here's Eric's set:  Puppy Adoption Day 1st Sep 2024.

You may notice that there are only three Rain Babies shown, and that's because the foster parent of the other two has joined the Failed Foster Club, meaning they will be staying forever. 

The little black pom Juniper also had her lucky break with a trial adoption to see how she and the resident dog get along.

The main reason that I'm writing my blog today after having shared one only yesterday, is that I wanted to mention some new dogs and puppies that should be coming to us on Tuesday.  There are two female bichon frise (both five years old), and two white shiba puppies, five months old.  All are apparently in good health and condition, but we'll wait to see when they arrive.  As always, please complete the questionnaire if you're interested in adopting, but bear in mind that we will review all applications to see which are the most suitable, as not all homes are. The form is at www.hongkongdogrescue.com/adopt/adoption-questionnaire/.

I'm also happy to share the list of lucky dogs for August, all thirty two of them.  We have included Wiska, although she is still in a (lovely) foster home waiting for her flight to the USA in October.
