The Conversation:

Chris and his wife Natasha co-founded Bark! Taiwan, an animal welfare organization.  Chris discusses the vision behind Bark!, the changes it has gone through, Catch Neuter and Release (CNR),  what he learned from the organization, and the status and future of Bark!.

Questions:

How has the vision changed over the last five years?

What is the status of Bark! ? Do you think it will continue after you are gone?

If you could go back five years would you do it again?
