Urgent Help Needed by HKDR

Months ago, I mentioned that the HKDR would have to move from its current location and they were due to move end of February to a new site. Unfortunately, the new site has been found unsuitable for use as a kennel and all of the dogs will be homeless. They have until the end of April at the current location and then they will have to move out.

They are asking for help at this time. If you can foster, adopt, make a donation or know of an appropriate site for HKDR please do what you can to assist.

Here is the letter we received by email this morning:


 
 
 
Dear Laura and Greg 
 
If you have read my recent blog posts or today's SCMP story on HKDR's current situation, you will be aware that the land near Tung Chung that we had been planning to move to has turned out not to be suitable for use as a kennel.
 
All of our focus and efforts over the past few months have been on building a new Homing Centre there, and now we are left with nowhere to go. Swire Properties have confirmed that 30th April is the final deadline for us to leave our current Pokfulam Kennels site, which means that as from the end of this month HKDR - and that means all of the dogs - will be homeless.

We need help, and urgently.  If you are thinking about adopting a dog, please come to our kennels and have a look at those that are waiting there.   If you can foster until we sort a new site out (and we don't know how long that will take), please offer a temporary home to one of our dogs.  If you can donate money to help us pay for private boarding, or sponsor a particular dog's boarding costs, please let us know.

We have just two weeks to find a place for our dogs.  Please, please HELP.  Send out this message to all of your friends, work colleagues or database if you have one.

We also need a place to build our planned Homing Centre.  There must be someone who knows of a suitable site, so help us get the word out across Hong Kong.
