I am from California and I love to play games, hangout with my friends, and many more things. I haven’t had many experiences with dogs and cats. It was really hard for me to play with a dog or cat because I just have this feeling that they are going to bite me if I do anything wrong. This is because my mom said she got bit once and that had scared her from touching an animal.

I think this semester changed my thoughts. I have learned why there are many homeless dogs and why there isn’t enough space for these dogs to go to a shelter. When I went to RuiFang, it was a whole new experience. I learned that even some scary dogs are very nice. I learned that homeless animals always have to fight for their life. For example, they would have to fight for food and water to survive. I learned that we need to neuter these animals so they can stop making more babies. This can help reduce the amount of homeless animals.

Something I have grown and improved is thinking for more ideas and thoughts. This experience was very helpful because there were many things I wouldn’t rethink about. For example, I wouldn’t even think about homeless animals being a problem. I thought that animals wouldn’t fight for food because Taiwan has many food markets. I felt like thinking was a huge improvment because I started thinking much more than what I was like before.
