Update.
Jessica tested positive for heartworm, too, although the infection was fairly recent and the parasites had not had a chance to breed in her bloodstream thus simplifying the treatment. She was moved to her adoptive family yesterday, needs to be kept quiet until receiving a second injection in a month and then kept quiet for a for a couple of months after that. They are ready and willing to do what is needed.
Yong needs the full treatment and he is adapting well in his new foster home. Once he gets his first injection in two months we'll start looking for a permanent home for him.
Two more dogs arrive from Mexico tomorrow. Both already have homes waiting for them.
Four more dogs arrive from Mexico on Friday. They are also already placed with new homes.
The two China dogs got as far as Beijing when the vets there decided that one had and the other had been exposed to a contagious skin condition. They will treated there and sent on when the vets clear them for airline travel.
And, then, I think we are going to take a bit of a break.
