With the recent increase of people emigrating out of Hong Kong, there has also been a rise in cases of pets being left behind, or shelters being asked to take the animals back. It is incredibly hard for rescues to navigate these complicated times.
If you are looking to move out of Hong Kong, here are a couple of resources that might help: Pet relocation companies to help you with the transition, other essentials you need to know, and the Flight Volunteer for Pets Facebook group. Additionally, if you believe you might have plans to relocate out of Hong Kong, consider fostering or volunteering instead.

Description: When Dave is inside his room, he will lean against the window to ask you for a back scratch. He can be so demanding (in a cute way) that he will let out a soft bark to ask you why you’ve stopped scratching him! When Dave is outside, he is active and loves interacting with people. As an extrovert, he is super popular amongst his doggie friends.
Best suited for: Anyone!

Breed: Husky mix
Description: A number of huskies were rescued from a Tsuen Wan rooftop, where they were being illegally bred. Bostjan is one of those lucky survivors who has been taken in by LAP.

Age: 3 years old
Gender: Female
Breed: Husky
Description: Beige is another Husky rescue from Tsuen Wan. As a female, she was probably used for breeding as soon as she was able to have babies. Fortunately, she has now been rescued by LAP. Given the Hong Kong heat and humidity, it is not the ideal condition for Huskies, who thrive in cold environments, so careful evaluation of potential homes will be required to ensure she gets the best life possible.
Best suited for: A home that understands the needs of a Husky.
Notes: To adopt from LAP, please fill in the dog adoption form.
