For the most part, the Changchun Friends website is not very active and has been superseded by the Tencent "Wechat" app by the local expat community. This website is maintained sporadically, people may still join and membership is still open, but if you are a spammer, stay away. The archived information here is still useful, but some may be out of date. There are plans to make it more useful for static information in the future. If anyone needs information about Changchun or China, you may post a message and it probably will get a response but not immediately.

Changchun Friends

a great way to get involved

Bobby the cocker spaniel can recognise money and spend it too!

This canny canine has worked out that you don't need to work like a dog to enjoy the finer things in life.

Bobby the cocker spaniel has realised that his good looks alone will persuade passers-by to part with their cash

Now the dog from Changchun, the capital of Jilin Province in north-east China, has become a local celebrity for his remarkable talent for recognising money - and spending it.

Each day Bobby hangs around the lottery station run by his owner Wang Chun, waiting for generous looking customers.

As soon as he sees one taking out cash for tickets, he knows to turn on the charm.


If someone gives him a one-yuan note he will pick it up in his mouth and rush to a nearby grocery store to buy his favourite snacks, which include sausages and chicken wings.
