A group of wild children arrived in the alley, some looking for their father, others for their mother. They were all pitiful children abandoned by educated youth before returning to the cities.
...Chapter 100 Police Dog Assessment 4: Why was my scoring qualification revoked? ...
The base has a limited number of members.
Li Tuantuan is the gatekeeper, He Rui is the veterinarian, and Kong Linfu is in charge of logistics. None of these three people have a direct connection to today's assessment.
However, He Rui still arrived just as the assessment was about to begin, so that he could intervene promptly if any of the dogs became unwell due to nervousness.
Besides, Captain Meng Heping was quite busy. He needed to coordinate the operations of the base with other departments, which involved a lot of paperwork. In particular, he was the one who finished up the operations that Qiu Xiaoman participated in, so he didn't come.
In this way, there are only five people who can actually participate in the scoring: Vice Captain Qu Hao, Instructor Lu Zhiqiang, Fang Jiadong, Dou Lei, and Qiu Xiaoman.
Fortunately, five people is a relatively perfect number of scorers. After removing the highest and lowest scores, there are still three valid scores, which can minimize the subjective bias of the scorers.
So, Qu Hao thought about it and decided that for projects with an equal scoring system, he would have all five of them participate in the scoring.
He called all the dogs to the east side of the training field and, according to their assigned handlers, brought them one by one.
In fact, Qu Hao was not optimistic about this police dog assessment because Fang Jiadong had previously thrown a tantrum, dissatisfied with the dogs assigned to him by Captain Meng, and temporarily disrupted the dogs' assignments, choosing four for himself.
So now, apart from the four dogs that Qiu Xiaoman has kept their ownership unchanged, the others have all been reassigned.
There is also a need for a compatible dynamic between police dogs and their handlers.
For example, the Belgian Malinois Deerjia, which Fang Jiadong forcibly took from Lu Zhiqiang, doesn't like Fang Jiadong, and the atmosphere between the two is very tense every time they train.
For example, the Tugou Baozi Shop, which Fang Jiadong forced upon Lu Zhiqiang, performed only so-so when it was in Fang Jiadong's hands, but became exceptionally obedient under Lu Zhiqiang's command.
In short, there are too many variables in this assessment, and even Fang Jiadong himself is not sure what to expect.
However, he had made some tough remarks to Qiu Xiaoman before the assessment, and now that the time had come to see the results, he was actually a little nervous.
He was worried that Deerjia would become the worst performer among the four dogs he was training, so he kept an eye on Deerjia and constantly reminded him not to cause trouble.
The assessment officially begins when the preparatory whistle sounds.
The dogs being tested sat obediently in a row, exhaling white mist from their mouths, waiting patiently for their turn.
The first to be tested were Qu Hao and Gouzi, who was in charge of Meng. Because Meng was busy, Gouzi was also handed over to Qu Hao for pre-test intensive training.
The assessment process went smoothly. Except for one beautiful black and white mixed-breed dog that was a little disobedient, the other two passed on the first try.
The scores, from highest to lowest, are: German Shepherd Beibei 92, German Shepherd and Golden Retriever mix Yuanbao 90, and black and white mixed-breed dog 86.
Next up is the dog that Lu Zhiqiang is in charge of. Lu Zhiqiang is a very responsible person, and his dogs are just like him. Even though they are not as talented as the other dogs, they are all very hardworking.
The scores, from highest to lowest, are: Flower Dog Peanut Candy 90, Local Dog Steamed Bun Shop 86, and Labrador Loves to Sleep 82.
Finally, the first major event of this assessment has arrived.
Under Fang Jiadong's guidance, the four dogs he trained took a few steps forward with their heads held high and sat down in the center of the field.
Although Fang Jiadong was unsure whether De'er could pass the driving test, he still had high hopes for the other three dogs. So he whistled and sent the best-performing Kunming dog, Tanhua, to lead the way.
This is the dog he snatched from Qu Hao. It was the best-performing dog among those awaiting evaluation before Qiu Xiaoman brought Huihui in.
Therefore, Fang Jiadong was very confident, and the result was as expected.
The third-ranked player performed very well. The only drawback was that the wintersweet on the edge of the training field was in full bloom. The reason why the third-ranked player was called the third-ranked player was because he liked to smell flowers.
So during exams, he couldn't help but look in the direction of the winter plum blossoms, raise his head, and smile with a blissful expression.
This caused him to sometimes seem slow to react, resulting in a final score of only 92 points, a tie with German Shepherd Bebe, far below Fang Jiadong's expectations.
He thought that the third-place finisher could get full marks.
He was very angry, and when he tested the second dog, the mongrel with dried radish, his tone became impatient.
As a result, the trainer's frustration affected the dog, Radish, which was being tested. It immediately gave up and started barking wildly at Fang Jiadong.
Fang Jiadong was so angry that he wanted to kick him, but Qiu Xiaoman stepped forward and stopped him.
She was furious and questioned, "What's wrong with you? Dogs, like people, have their ups and downs. You're taking it out on Radish because the third-place student didn't do as well as you wanted? What did Radish do to you?"
Fang Jiadong, annoyed by her meddling, shoved her away, saying, "Get out of here, mind your own business!"
Qiu Xiaoman rolled her eyes in exasperation: "Fine, I don't care. I want to see how many points your dog can get on the test."
Ultimately, because Radish Dried refused to cooperate and kept barking at Fang Jiadong, he got a zero on the exam.
Fang Jiadong did not make any more moves, but instead turned around and urged the third dog to come on stage.
This is a female Doberman named Mao Xue Wang; she is Mao Du's older sister from the same litter.
Mao Xue Wang has always been relatively unknown at the base, which has led her to often remain aloof and indifferent to things that don't concern her. So, when Luo Bo Gan was arguing with the instructor, it didn't affect her at all. On the contrary, her relaxed attitude resulted in her scoring 93 points, the highest score in the entire test so far.
Fang Jiadong himself was a little surprised.
Regardless, although Mao Xue Wang wasn't expected to do well on the exam, Fang Jiadong was happy as long as she did well. He cheered himself up and had his stolen dog, De'er, drive her to the exam.
De'erjia never liked him, and since De'erjia always wanted to go back to Lu Zhiqiang's side, he simply gave up and acted irresponsibly. He was nonchalant about every instruction, and even when Fang Jiadong promised to buy him a whole free-range chicken after the assessment, it didn't whet his appetite.
In the end, De'er only scored 62 points on the driving test, barely passing the mark.
Fang Jiadong was so angry that he trembled all over. He raised his leg and kicked out, but Deerjia was a Belgian Malinois and was naturally agile. The moment it heard the noise, it jumped up and ran away, escaping Fang Jiadong's attack range.
In the end, Fang Jiadong's efforts were in vain. He could only rub his twitching eyelids, suppress his anger, and wait to see Qiu Xiaoman make a fool of herself.
There was also Dou Lei between the two of them. He was always laid-back, and the dog he trained was also laid-back.
The final results were as expected and quite relaxed: Kunming Dog Stinky Tofu 88, Local Dog Doubanjiang 82, and German Shepherd Screaming 80.
Although none of them scored above 90, the three dogs were relatively consistent in their skill level, all being above average.
Dou Lei was quite satisfied, but Fang Jiadong was not. He couldn't understand why his seeded players either failed to score at all or barely passed, while Dou Lei, on the other hand, calmly and easily won three 80+ scores.
I'm so angry.
He was determined to cause trouble for Qiu Xiaoman.
Qiu Xiaoman watched calmly as she entered the arena, holding four slips of paper in her hand. After crumpling them into balls, she drew lots to take the exam.
First up was Chocolate, a local black dog, which was said to be a mix of a Tibetan Mastiff and a local dog. Judging by its robust physique, it was very likely genuine.
Chocolate is usually very low-key. Perhaps because all the dogs in Qiu Xiaoman's care are so outstanding, Chocolate's excellence is not so conspicuous, and it is rather ordinary.
Even so, Chocolate's performance during the assessment still amazed everyone.
These dogs are just like students preparing for exams. Some students are quiet and unassuming, but they quietly accumulate strength and then surprise everyone when the exam comes.
Some students are usually loud and boisterous, acting like they know everything, but they're all just half-baked. When it really comes down to it, they fail miserably.
Chocolate is the former. If Fang Jiadong hadn't given it a score of 59, according to the scoring rules, chocolate could have gotten 96!
However, the rule is that if anyone fails, the group will review the performance and decide whether to re-evaluate.
Fang Jiadong looked at Qiu Xiaoman with a malicious smile: "Do you think I'm blind? When I was training it to follow, it was a beat slow, so it deserved a deduction. Also, during the refusal-to-eat training, it drooled, which means it was very likely to waver and didn't meet the requirements. When it came to crossing obstacles, this dog had many problems; its tail scraped against the obstacle. If it had been crossing a rope with a bell attached, it would have definitely failed. Giving it a failing grade is reasonable, isn't it?"
Qiu Xiaoman ignored him and turned to Qu Hao: "Deputy Captain Qu, according to this standard, does it mean that anyone whose tail sweeps across an obstacle will fail? There is no such clause in the assessment rules. Please give me an explanation."
Qu Hao had a terrible headache. Too lazy to waste words, he simply waved his hand, telling He Rui to go find Captain Meng.
Either we should standardize the criteria and, in addition to ensuring that the dog's limbs and torso do not touch the obstacle, we should also add the rule that the tail cannot sweep across it; or we should ignore Fang Jiadong's fault-finding and just pass the test.
Team Leader Meng is currently finalizing the handover with the heating company; all labor costs incurred during this period have already been settled.
Without a doubt, it must be Shen Qinghuai.
He couldn't help but sigh, "It's so great to have a rich dad."
Their colleagues also benefited from it.
After signing the document, he prepared to return to his office to handle official documents, but unexpectedly, He Rui came running over, panting. As expected, there was still a problem with the police dog assessment.
Meng Heping was in a terrible headache. He turned around and rushed to the training ground. After finding out the specific situation, he directly revoked Fang Jiadong's right to score.
Turning to He Rui, she said, "You come here. Don't pay attention to their grudges. Just follow the assessment rules."
He Rui was forced into the task and had no choice but to bite the bullet and pick up the assessment record sheet: "Okay, Captain Meng, I'll try my best."
As for the score for the chocolate, Fang Jiadong's score was directly excluded, and a high score of 96 was given!
Fang Jiadong, his envy flaring up, angrily stopped Captain Meng and demanded, "Why were you disqualified from scoring? Give me an explanation!"
