Giving a new lease on life to the stray dogs here, from the Newspapers, translated…
In order to implement the adopt not buy policy, in July, the Pingxi district offices adopted a furry child from the Banciao Animal Shelter, “Miru Chen”, the office even made a worker’s identification for the animal, he was cute, and loved people, became, the hit PR “officer” of the office.

Chen, who’d adopted the dog from Pingxi District said, that the Hsibei City is working very hard, to push forth the No-Kill Policies, plus the assistant mayor, Hou wanted the government workers to be an example, that was why, the worker at the local land office went to the Banciao animal shelter and adopted; Chen said, from online, he’d originally wanted to, adopt the older sister of “Miru Chen”, but as he arrived at the shelter, the female was, already adopted, that was why, he’d, adopted him instead.
“Miru Chen” is a mix male, and why the name, Chen said, Chen was his last name, and, Miru’s coat was golden like the beer’s, so, his English name was “BEER”, and, in Japanese, it’d, sounded as “Miru”, so, the dog was given the name of “Miru Chen”.
Miru Chen was only three months old when he was adopted, he is mild-tempered, loved staying close to people, and everybody at the office loved him, and made a special worker’s identification tag just for him too. Chen told everyone who came, “Miru Chen” had multiple purposes, although he wasn’t, a good watch dog, but he did, excel in other areas, in receptionist, and public relations for the land offices, and he would be seen often, keeping the grounds at the offices.
Chen said, he’d hoped, that the land offices adopting the pets first, can initiate the same response from the public.
So, this is a great program, to adopt, and not buy, as there are, many great animals in the shelters everywhere, in need of a home, and this man gave this pet a brand new lease on life, and, the dog became, the head of PR at the workplace too!
