I hope I can show you a “before and after” make over of Karla to you, but only if her situation is that simple, that some trimming or bath would fix. When we first received Karla, we had difficulties to tell what her exact breed is because she is very deformed... who would have known...SHE IS ACTUALLY A POM. Karla is not from breeder but actually a case of negligence or we would say, abuse? A life of neglect has left Karla with a nasty ear infection, fur in such a state that it had to be shaved completely off and a jaw broken in two places from untreated tooth decay. How did this actually happen? We can’t really comprehend from the perspective of humanity, neither can Karla. After spending around 6 years in fear of abuse and being neglected - Karla is trying to trust, to love and to live again. “Little Karla’s confidence is growing day by day. Despite her hard life and damaged exterior, she is very trusting and sweet. Having had a few days to rest and recuperate since being rescued, her energetic and sociable side is coming out and she has been running around the apartment exploring” loving foster said. please help Karla to get her the surgery she needs to fix the jaw and get her on the road to recovery and to live with dignity. 我哋都好想可以俾你睇咗一張Karla喺Grooming之前同之後嘅對比圖，但關於Karla，佢嘅問題絕對唔係簡單嘅修剪係可以修復。 喺接收到Karla後，其實我哋都猶豫咗一陣佢嘅品種，因為佢嗰樣已經變得異常。 但原來佢係一隻博美犬(?) Karla其實並唔係來自於繁殖場，佢其實係來自於一個所謂嘅屋企。一個長期都唔打理，唔關心，唔愛佢嘅屋企。由於長期疏於打理，佢嘅耳仔嚴重發炎，啲毛打杈打到要全部睇晒，啲牙腐爛令到下巴變成畸形。究竟係點樣做到？我哋真係無從稽考而Karla都無辦法話到俾我哋知。今年Karla六歲，我哋希望可以由今日開始佢可以重新去建立佢嘅自信，我哋都可以幫佢籌到一筆重建下巴嘅手術費，令佢生活得冇咁辛苦令佢生活得有番尊嚴。 LAP is a non-profit organization and is funded entirely by public donations.

💚 好物分享 Goodies Share (eng below)💚 時尚環保。禦寒新主義 天氣開始轉涼，我昨晚已經把厚綿被拿出來了 😌 你也開始換季了嗎？說到保暖衣物，會不會第一時間想到羽絨？小學5年級時，第一次跟著家人坐上了人生第一趟飛機，去了韓國！也因此買下了我人生第一件羽絨大衣。當時只知道保暖，從來沒有考究過什麼是羽絨！ //羽絨其實是小鴨/鵝身上的羽毛 🦆，當小鴨/鵝2個月大時，便開始經歷第一次的殘忍拔毛，自此，便不斷地重複進行拔毛（平均每年4次直至死亡）。飼養員抓住鴨鵝的腳部，從頸部到胸部開始拔下絨毛，由於粗暴的拔毛方法，導致它們的皮膚被撕裂// 👆其實，要保暖真的不需要羽絨！現時有很多vegan的牌子可選擇，像是意大利戶外服裝品牌 - Save the Duck，他們用的是plumtech而非羽絨，不論在防潮還是保暖方面都比羽絨更勝一籌 🥳 (詳細對比請看最後一張圖) 再者，Save the Duck 的衣服可謂是非常時尚美觀，長版的穿起來不會肥腫，反而更顯瘦；另有短版的、可愛的，應有盡有！而且香港有分店啊！快快去試穿一下，一定能找到合你心意的 😎 更重要的是，小鴨/鵝從此不會再因為一件衣服而受苦了！一起SAVE THE DUCK! 💛 The weather is getting colder 😌 When it comes to warm clothing, do you think of down for the first time? When I was in the 5th grade of primary school, I went to South Korea with my family on the first plane of my life! I bought the first down coat in my life as well. At that time, I only knew I need to keep warm, and I never studied what down was! //Down is actually the feathers on the ducklings/gooses 🦆. When the ducklings/gooses are 2 months old, they begin to experience the first cruel plucking. Since then, they have been repeatedly plucked (average 4 times a year until death). The breeder grabbed the feet of the ducks and geese and began to pluck the fluff from the neck to the chest. Due to the rough plucking method, their skin was torn// 👆In fact, you don’t really need down to keep warm! There are many vegan brands to choose from, such as the Italian outdoor clothing brand - Save the Duck. They use plumtech instead of down. They are better than down in terms of moisture-proof and warmth 🥳 (For detailed comparison, please see the last pic) @save_the_duck In addition, the clothes of Save the Duck are very fashionable and beautiful. The long version will not be fat and swollen, but look thinner. There are also short and cute versions! And there are branches in Hong Kong! Hurry up and try it on, you will surely find something that suits you 😎 More importantly, the ducklings/gooses will never suffer from a piece of clothing anymore!

美麗有罪 [English below] 點解咁殘忍, 可以 keep 住唔肯放手, 直至她流晒膿, 肌肉壞死才肯放棄她 😖 看來漂亮的哥基媽媽，被人丟棄時，肚皮卻是充滿疤痕流住血的。 哥基是近年最受歡迎的品種之一，但在寵物店背後，卻是無數被人一生困在籠中的純種狗爸爸狗媽媽。 很多人不信，怎會咁殘忍，但事實就是，我們雙手觸及過無數咁多身體還在流血，被丟棄出來的動物們。 她的肚皮被重覆重覆地打開，有說是因為大家都喜歡迷你狗，所以有些不法商人會趁BB 未足月就拿出來。 她上星期被送到我們獸醫，大家都不確定她是否能活過來，做過手術，還要輸血。至今，在獸醫診所已經花了四萬二千元。 LAP 是一個100% 由義工組成的charity, 我們沒有大機構或政府長期支援，我們靠的就是每一個好心人的捐款。 這個月我們見証了很多奇蹟，斷腳的唐狗Amir, 大傷口的唐妹妹Anna, 還有很多。 謝謝我們的義工，你們的支持，還有我們的暫託家庭。 但亦代表我們這個月的獸醫費會比平日近高。希望大家捐助支持！ Bunty, 如果佢醜樣啲, 脾氣差啲, 可能唔會咁慘的下場. 但佢仲係咁相信人類, 人類仲係咁用佢做工具賺錢 : ( *PLEASE DO NOT SUPPORT SHOPPING OF ANIMALS* If you are not ready to adopt, or donate, you can still help foster, volunteer, and even spread the importance of adopt don't shop. Beautiful Bunty was abandoned by a breeder. Corgis are one of the most sought after breeds in recent years. Behind the shopping craze are these moms and dads, that have spent years and years in a cage, used for making babies. Just look at the scar on her underbelly, she was opened up repeatedly. There were lots of rumours that breeders would perform C-section take out pre-mature babies for smaller size dogs - because miniature dogs are more sought after, when I first heard it I brushed it off my mind, I didn't think it is possible, or didn't think it's common place, but after years of volunteering, these cases present themselves again and again. Bunty was sent to our vet last week, and stayed in hospital since then, we were really not sure whether she could be rescued. She has cost $42,000 at our vet so far. LAP is a 100% volunteer operated charity, we do not have major funding sources, and we depend on individual generosity to help the animals. This month we have witnessed lots of miracles, it is very touching, our vet's hard work, our fosters selflessness, but it also means we have an ENORMOUS, vet bill to cover, if you would like to help our animals, please donate by payme/ paypal or transferring. EVEN a SMALL amount can make a big difference. 🔹Help us save lives on homeless animals You can donate by： 🔷HSBC香港匯豐銀行戶口 400-399-978-838 🔷 Pay Me https://qr.payme.hsbc.com.hk/2/LeeJBYFi4o4UCkJAoYPY5c 🔷PayPal www.lap.org.hk/donate.aspx ALT Exemption ORG- 00
