老外在中国：忠犬相伴

如果想让你的孩子高考取得好成绩，成为人生赢家，那么赶快养只狗吧。研究证明，有狗狗陪伴的儿童，学语言会更快，阅读能力更强，词汇量更大。而有狗狗陪伴的青少年，感情会更稳定，人也更自信。

The first time I saw she was chasing a motorcycle.

第一次见菲菲，她正在追一辆摩托车。

My China Daily colleague, Greg Fountain, was chasing her. And, his adult dog was looking on skeptically at the antics of the crazy three-month-old puppy.

我在《中国日报》的同事格雷格正在追她，他的大狗满眼疑惑的看着这只3个月大的小奶狗撒欢耍疯。

and her litter mates had been left in a trash box on a sidewalk in the Sanlitun area of Beijing. Some kind people rescued them, then Greg and his lovely bride, Maria, volunteered to be foster parents until they could find her a permanent family.

菲菲和同窝小崽被遗弃在北京三里屯路边的一个垃圾箱里。他们被善良的人救助，格雷格和他美丽的新婚妻子玛利亚在找到收容他们的家庭前，自愿抚养他们。

I took home that afternoon and sent a Wechat message to my Chinese wife that I had a surprise waiting for her. She probably thought I meant good food, or flowers. She had never had a dog before and was a bit afraid of them.
