Two months ago, she just participated in the Colleage Entrance Examination and was accepted by a university in Shanghai. But when she knew her beloved dog was lost, she decided to stay in Chongqing to find it. That is to say, she had to study for another year and apply another university in Chongqing. I really can't understand her behavior, but her parents support her!! What's wrong?

Consider it in this light for a moment, Evening. I have been alone (even when I lived in big cities) for 25 years. My dog is my only nearby family. She is loving and loyal beyond human capacity (save for the bond between mother and child); she has comforted me in difficult times, alerted me to danger and has even defended me from aggressive people and animals. It is difficult for me to separate her from my human family and my best human friend. When a dog and a person bond it is a family bond resembling the bonding between dogs in a pack of dogs which is much stronger than the bonds that tie people together. I do not consider my dog a possession or livestock even though you could correctly say that she is both.

This young girl should absolutely continue her studies and may have carried her youthful exuberance a bit too far, but I understand the sentiments of her actions.
