Recently, a street dog has become so popular in the neighborhood that it has brought new depositors(储户) to a bank in Dalian, Liaoning province.

The dog is yellow and white with a broken ear. She began walking around the neighborhood about six years ago. She often looked for food beside the bank. To stop people from hurting her, a kind stall(货摊) owner took her in. So she’d sleep at the stall at night and walk around the neighborhood during the day. Later, some workers in the bank began to feed her dog food, and she seemed to become one of them.

In order to take better care of the dog, Liu Jian, a cleaner at the bank, took her home and gave her the name Meili (“beautiful”). “I just do the legwork,” Liu said. “The bank workers pay the money out of their own pockets. I just go to buy food and snacks with the money. They also pay the money spent in the animal hospital.” 

A woman living nearby said she always visits the dog every time she passes the bank. “Meili is such a nice dog. I never saw her bark (吠叫) at anyone. She likes staying with us,” she said. “Because of the shared love of dogs, we’re communicating more with people nearby, and over 30 of them have become new depositors thanks to Meili,” said Zhang Yi, manager of the bank.
