Had a heartwarming get-together

with our dogs at Nanas yesterday. The first 2 dogs we saw were Chance and Grey. Chance was pudgy and hot on such a hot and humid day. And Grey was as sweet as ever, her mange is still somewhat a condition (we were told it could be an immunity problem similar to some other dogs there) and she can afford to put on some fat. Hope she eats more.

Followed on we met Bicycle (funny fellow came bounding towards us when called, his stump of a tail wagging) , Charlie (still can't be let out of his kennel yet as he would get into fights with the other dogs and he still appears very wary and insecure even though he has been there for 1 year already), Billy and Ashley.

We couldn't locate the rest until our second round. Then we ran into Coca & Cola (our gangster brothers) snoozing in the other front hut - what a boisterous greeting from Coca, he was all over us! After which we had another boisterous greeting from Tiger before we located Wangi, Chantek and Summer in their back kennel. Wangi was still defensive and was barking us off. Chantek still appears untrusting of humans after being so violently abused. She was just cowering with her head held low throughout the time we were there. It was a sad sight to see an animal conditioned to be so fearful of men. Summer was looking mild and friendly but she also didn't make any attempt to come near us, just contented to lie still in her cool corner. As for Bloom, we couldn't locate her yesterday. Was told that she had been let out already. She must be hiding in a cool corner somewhere.

Abbie is fine with his pack, staying beyond the boundaries of Nanas. He paid us a visit with his pack when they came pretty near the fencing. The workers will attempt to trap him back.

We are sad to inform that Bongo, our dalmatian who was rescued together with Chance, had passed away from prostrate cancer last December.

We've some more photos, will update more later.
