The PD has no concept of MBTI, the compatibility chart only takes account of letters in isolation, not Jungian cognitive functions (JCF's), so the chart says they are highly compatible, but when JCF's are taken into account, it's only above average. Also: Two people of the same MBTI type and JCF's aren't socially compatible, but the chart says they do.
Mijoo is more fluent in Japanese than Yuqi, so she thought grammatically, there'd be a word to end the sentence, but there isn't in Chinese.

Remarks: Mijoo owns 2 dogs herself
Not all dogs have 4 toes on the back foot, some have a suspended dewclaw
It's inappropriate for dogs to take a bath once a week as most have sensitive skin, so once a month is about enough.

Most dogs are more tolerant to the cold than humans, they shiver out of fear of strangers, so Mijoo's crying and worries over Pida, the dog that shivered, were unwarranted.

The conversion rate between dog/cat age and human age isn't linear.
