Chapter 67: Didn’t the Third Battalion come back?
In order to leave enough space for Lu Youyou, there was no one else within a radius of ten meters, only Jiang Chuan was guarding outside the door.
He didn't understand how people and dogs chatted, but experts have their own ideas. How could he know if it wouldn't work if he didn't try?
However, Jiangchuan was outside and was on high alert, mainly because the rifle was too uncontrollable and they were afraid it would get too excited and accidentally hurt someone.
So, what happened?
Jiang Chuan rushed in when he heard the shout, but the scene in front of him made him trip over his right foot.
Lu Youyou sat on the ground, Xiaomi squatted beside her. The man and the dog looked at the howling rifle as if they were looking at a mentally retarded person.
Jiang Chuan swore that he had never seen such vivid disgust in Xiaomi's eyes, nor had he seen a rifle howl so miserably.
The little round eyes drooped into triangles, and the corners of the mouth drooped so much that they could not hold back the saliva.
Jiangchuan wanted to cover his face again. The image of the dog team was ruined by the rifle!
Snap, snap, snap…
A clear cry came rushing over, and Lightning rushed to the scene, quickly assessed the situation, and made a series of guttural noises towards the rifle.
In the past, the rifle would either roar at the lightning or jump out like an idiot to play with it, but today the rifle did not move and still looked dead.
It wanted to roar towards the sky, but after looking at Lu Youyou, it held it back and ended up opening its mouth towards the sky.
Jiangchuan's brows were furrowed so tightly that several pieces of paper could be squeezed through them. Since he took over the dog team, Rifle was definitely the weirdest dog, no doubt about it.
Lu Youyou smiled and said, "Captain Jiang, they are quite smart. Let's start training after I have talked them through. Maybe there will be hope."
Jiang Chuan smiled bitterly: "Thank you for your good words. Several trainers think it's a pity that he has passed the physical examination, but has personality problems."
Lu Youyou looked at the two puppies.
Although Rifle maintained the posture for treating cervical spondylosis, his eyes kept glancing over here. Xiaomi sat there like a stone, but his ears were erected high.
There is a response, which is a good start.
The two dogs didn't have any training classes for the next few days. Lu Youyou took them for a walk and did some ideological work while walking.
Jiang Chuan soon saw the results. It only took him a week to go from believing with tears in his eyes to being stunned.
Although Xiaomi was still taciturn and Rifle was still a little lively, at least he was able to complete a full training session without making the instructor angry and yelling.
Jiang Chuan was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling for several days, and came over excitedly to discuss whether chatting was really useful.
Lu Youyou was very clear that she was definitely not as good as the trainer in special training, and not everyone had the affinity buff. It would be best to analyze and summarize from the perspective of animal behavior and animal psychology.
The academic brilliance suddenly shone down, and Jiang Chuan, a rough guy, unconsciously sat up straighter.
I don't understand, urgent!
"Well, sister-in-law, could you please take the trouble to summarize it into a written manuscript? I want to convey it to my brothers, but my memory may not be able to repeat it well..."
"I'm already writing it, but not so fast."
Jiang Chuan rubbed his hands excitedly: "Really? Thank you so much, sister-in-law!"
This expert is worth hiring!
Lu Youyou smiled and said, "It's my duty. If I just talk at work every day, I'd be wasting your wages."
At this time, Jiang Chuan had not yet realized that Lu Youyou's so-called manuscript was different from what he thought.
He thought he would receive a summary report of about five, six, seven or eight pages, with a few charts at most, but he never expected that half a month later he would receive a "book"!
It was bound with letter paper, so it was much larger than an ordinary book. There was a number "Page 166" in the lower right corner of the last page. Jiang Chuan held it in his hand and was speechless for a long time.
He took the book "Animal Husbandry Disease Care" from the bookshelf. This was the version bound by the Logistics Department. In comparison, the book written by Lu Youyou this time was actually thicker than the previous one.
He never underestimated Lu Youyou's abilities from the beginning to the end, but each time he gained something far beyond his imagination.
Jiang Chuan couldn't wait to open it and read. The first few pages were fine, but the more he read, the more his brows furrowed. He knew every word, but it took him several seconds to react when he read them together.
He only graduated from junior high school and had not read many books since joining the army. Lu Youyou had tried to make it as simple and easy to understand as possible, but it was still difficult for someone who was not used to reading professional books to read.
Jiang Chuan worked hard, reading day and night, and discussed with Lu Youyou for three days. Suddenly, he felt that he had discovered another world.
In the past, we only focused on ability training, but it turns out that the dog’s psychological condition should also be included in the list of key concerns.
Comparing the current training situation of Xiaomi and Rifle, Jiang Chuan had to admit that what Lu Youyou said made sense.
"My sister-in-law has quietly started a big project!" Jiang Chuan exclaimed, "But the content in the book needs more examples to support it. I'll be busy next!"
Lu Youyou also knew that she couldn't be impatient. The army has always been strict. Unless it is an emergency, it is impossible for her to have her say everything.
"Let's train the millet and rifle first, and then move forward when we have achieved results."
Jiang Chuan agreed, saying that only with results could he report to his superiors and get more training resources.
"Sister-in-law hasn't been to the kennel yet, right? Let's go check it out now. I'll tell you about the trainer..."
"Report!"
"Enter."
A young soldier came over quickly and said, "Report, the first and second regiments are back."
Jiang Chuan immediately stood up and asked, "Are you back? Are there any casualties among the military dogs?"
Lu Youyou didn't react at first, but when she heard the word "casualties", she realized what they were talking about. Her heart rate instantly soared: "Hasn't the Third Battalion of the Third Regiment returned yet?"
The little soldier shook his head: "Not yet."
Jiang Chuan immediately comforted her: "Sister-in-law, it's okay. We may move in batches. If there are no other tasks, Captain Gu will be back tonight or tomorrow at the latest."
Lu Youyou nodded randomly. She knew that military exercises generally wouldn’t go wrong, but what if?
She was still worried until she saw Gu Qingye come back safe and sound.
"Captain, what should we do with the military dog when it returns?" asked the young soldier.
Jiang Chuan originally wanted to arrange an examination. After all, there was a veterinarian in the team who could know the condition of the military dog immediately. However, now...
Lu Youyou noticed it and calmed himself down: "Military dogs need a physical examination when they return to the team, right?"
Jiang Chuan immediately said, "Yes, we can start when they come back."
Soon, the Paw Patrol, who had just returned from their business trip, came back in an orderly line.
Lu Youyou took a quick look and saw that apart from one leg being a little lame and two of its hairs being bald, there were no other external injuries.
All the dogs sat upright and stayed where they were. I checked one and released one. Only after hearing the command did the dogs completely relax.
"They are all fine. The sprained ankle just needs a splint and they should avoid exercise for a week. Two of them have fungal skin infections. The dog team is running low on medicine, so we have to go to the animal husbandry station to get some."
Lu Youyou did not leave after giving the instructions. She stayed in the dog team for another hour, but still did not receive any news about the return of the Third Battalion.
