探訪動物收容所的時候您應該要有一些的[行前準備與認知]，以AMY的第一次經驗來與您分享。
心態上與心情上：
動物收容所裡面的狗狗與貓貓，牠們的身體健康狀況絕對與家貓、家狗有很大的不同；這也是牠們需要您的地方。
每一隻動物都有牠們獨特的個性而經歷街頭流浪的動物有時候會有一些受虐後遺症，所以探訪收容所裡面的動物時，請多給彼此一些時間，步調不宜太急或是太過熱情，請把您的熱情溫和而柔軟的釋放出來，您一定會感受到牠們的回應。
您可以帶一些狗狗或貓貓的零嘴，讓牠們可以更主動的靠近您，有時候狗兒興奮過度可能會張開大口吃您手上的食物，請不要過度驚嚇!!因為只要你不過度引誘而只是餵食，大部分的狗並不會咬傷您的手，當然狗兒的口水會沾黏到你的手或衣服，不過我相信您的愛心不會因為這個小小的事情而退縮。
所以接下來要請大家對於探訪所穿著的衣物有一點行前概念：
因為整個收容所雖然有工作人員的清掃與照顧還有一些義工定期的觀護與照料，但是整個環境還是有一股的動物體味這是無法避免的事情，所以在穿著上請著輕便且不怕沾染髒垢的衣服，以下Caroline特地拍了一張照片 為我們示範她的基本穿著與配備。
因為她總是幫忙狗狗洗澡，所以她穿著總是非常簡便，怎麼樣??? 這一身行頭可真是 酷畢了!!~

我與流浪狗之家的第一課:My first lesson of Dog shelter
What I learn from Caroline:2007/11/6 --Conversation with CarolineAmy:
I am thinking... Can you write me about people's first impression and reaction about dog shelter.
U know people like to help most of time but such case...
They need to know the condition of dogs in the dog shelter are not like home dogs
so.... I want to write this in blog
Caroline:
well actually ppl react to dogs by jumping and screamiong all the time
even to very small and harmless dogs on the street
I've never seen such stupid reaction to dogs in my life
Amy:
so.... What do you think about this?
How should they behave?
Caroline:
I think that if I were a dog that would drive me crazy
Amy:
( hahahahaaa )
Caroline:
they should have more respect, let the dog sniff them
if the dog doesn't approach you, then leave it alone....it doesn't want ot be touched
Amy:
I see
I will write this! Go on I need to learn also
Caroline :
-If it comes up to you, let it sniff....then offer it a closed hand
It will stay if it wants to be touched
-Don't approach a dog from behind or surprise it, it will take offense
-Don't scream, or make sudden movements
It will get excited, and maybe bark or run, or try to play...which can be a difficult behaviour to understand
-Don't tease dogs especially with food.....it will try to grab with it's teeth and maybe bite by mistake, also makes the dog frustrated
-Only touch the dogs head first
-Once it's comfortable you can touch other parts
Amy:
(( cats are more sensitive))
Caroline:
yeah?
Amy:
My kiki has such problem
She is very sensitive She doesn't like to be hugged
Caroline:
hmmmmm....Honey(dog) doesn't liek to be picked up
but actually she just pretends to bite
Amy:
So Every dog has different personality
Caroline:
oh yes!
Amy:
People need to know this also I found that Taiwanese think dogs are dogs
Caroline:
they get scared, confused, excited, aggressive, playful etc
their faces display emotions
Amy:
but they don't think about thedifference between dogs ( especially dogs in the shelter have special experiences )
Caroline:
as do their body language
yes
Amy:
I learned this from the dog shelter
