My love for dogs goes as far back as my first memory. As a little girl，I collected dog toys. At 5 years old，I was ready and willing to run away with the family dog after the threat of giving him away when he chewed up the sofa. Luckily he stayed and my affection for man's best friend continued. As an adult，my reasons for wanting to adopt a dog were purely selfish. I wanted a companion. I wanted a young，energetic dog that would need long walks or runs to help keep mc active to stick to an exercise routine.

Little did I know that my four﹣legged friend and love for dogs would help me feel more at home in and fall in love with my Shanghai community. It seemed to me that being a tall blonde didn't already attract a lot of curious stares；add a 12﹣kilogram black dog that believes everyone is his best friend to the picture and locals seem even more intrigued. The decision to adopt Xiao Hei definitely fulfilled those early selfish desires，but the experience has also brought me closer to my neighbors and made me feel more at home.

A few months after I first brought Xiao Hei home，I spotted the group of elderly Chinese people who gather at the park. After realizing they go there most weeknights，I decided it would be a good way to help Xiao Hei socialize with other dogs. After a few visits，it was not only an opportunity for him to play but also a chance for me to practice my Chinese. "Most Chinese give their dogs English names，but you've given him a Chinese name. Very interesting，"they laughed. With that simple laugh，it seemed that barriers were broken and with each visit I felt more a part of the community.

My cell phone rang while I was working on my computer. I looked at the phone and saw it was my 17-year-old son, Tom. I quickly picked it up.“Mom,I got a 71 on the test.I did it.”With those few words,I could feel my heart start to pound.

But for Tom, who is dyslexic(朗读困难）, it is such a real challenge that some teachers have feared he would never be able to even attempt, never mind achieve.

We were honest with him about his trouble, letting him know that there was nothing to be ashamed of. Some people learn differently. If he was willing to work,we would help him find a way to do as much as he could in his academic career. All that was standing in his way was this math test. He had taken it three times and did better each time, but he continued to fail. He was starting to get a bit tired of me saying this was a marathon not a sprint(冲刺). My heart broke each time we would get the failing results.

“Mom,thanks. I love you. Thanks for believing I could do this.”

For one of the few times in my life, I really had nothing left to say. For that one brief moment I knew, really, really, knew that everything we did to help our son achieve what he wanted was worth it.
