If you missed the opportunity for your dog(s) to appear in last year's fabulous HKDR Tribute Book, reserve your space now for this year's even-bigger-and-better edition. Email Caroline at hkdrphotos@hotmail.com for details and reservations.

The participants in last year's book are currently featuring in a photo exhibition in selected US cinemas, and 6 of the lucky dogs will also appear on the upcoming special edition T-shirts, with all proceeds going to HKDR.

Make your dog a star too, and make sure you don't miss this chance. This book is for HKDR-adopted dogs only, but Ali Bullock, our Superstar Photographer, will also accept bookings for other pets, including humans, too.

DESIGN COMPETITION FOR HKDR PRODUCTS!

As valued supporters of HKDR you all know that we have HKDR T-shirts for sale, and every year produce HKDR Christmas cards and other products. This year, starting from now, we are holding a design competition for both T-shirts and Christmas cards and this is open to everyone, of all ages. Come up with a great, eye-catching design for T-shirts (should include the HKDR logo), and we will do the rest. The top 3 designs will be chosen by our HKDR Committee Members, and designers will be credited. For the Christmas cards, we will be looking for 6 different designs so there will be a variety of styles. Again, the designer will be credited on the card. The competition starts now, and entries for the card design will close on 31st July. For the T-shirts, if we spot a great design, we'll use it for the following production run. So get those crayons out and start drawing! (Please email designs to hongkongdogrescue@yahoo.com). All entries will be acknowledged.
