Urban Military Dog
Meow?
Xiaohua glanced at the sky, jumped out of the cat bed, jumped onto the wall lightly, and looked down at the street outside the yard.
The humans and big dogs in this territory have very regular living habits. Xiaohua has long been accustomed to the process of welcoming them after waking up, but today there was an exception.
The sun is about to set now, why haven’t you come back yet?
"Meow~"
Xiaohua squatted on the wall, swishing her tail unhappily, completely ignoring the meowing of the kittens in the yard, and only paid attention to the situation at the end of the road.
After waiting for a long time, just when it couldn't help but want to go out to look for it, a familiar figure finally appeared at the end.
but……
Why is there an extra dog?!
When they got close, Xiaohua jumped down and stood guard at the door, calling out to Tianlang: "Meow——"
What's going on, meow?
Who are you going to take home?
"Xiaohua, is she getting impatient waiting for us?" Li Lianying was a little surprised. He looked up at the dim sky as the sun set, slapped his forehead, and felt a little guilty. "Oh, it's already this late. It took some time to find a doctor for the puppy. I'll go prepare food for you and the kittens."
Xiaohua: "Meow."
Although it was not asking anyone, the cat still respected the old man who provided shelter and had a sense of propriety and distance. After hearing the human's long string of words, Xiaohua responded very politely.
Then, continue staring at the dog.
There was silent scrutiny and consideration in the green cat's eyes.
This guy is so dirty...
You want to lead it into the yard?
The stray dog, who was already in a trance due to his recent experience, shrank back when the cat stared at him like that. He didn't dare to move and could only look at the wolfhound in front of him with helpless eyes.
"Woof." Don't be afraid.
Sirius turned around and called out softly to calm the stray dog down, then turned around and patiently explained to the cat.
It met the stray dog on its way back.
The little stray is very pitiful. His throat was scratched by something bad. He can only forage for food in the garbage dump, and the food he finds is often harmful.
It thought the stray dog might need help, so it took it back after asking its owner.
The owner was very nice. He took the stray dog to see a doctor and gave it a quick bath. I'm sorry for the delay in getting home.
Xiaohua narrowed her eyes: "Meow?"
So this dirty dog is going to live in the yard?
Tianlang denied: "Woof."
This puppy has a sister who is wandering around with it. Even though it is very grateful for the help, it still hopes to go back as soon as possible and survive with its sister.
So, this stray dog will probably only stay here for a few days.
This answer satisfied Xiaohua for the time being. When the human took out the key to open the door, it turned around and went into the yard first, calling the puppies who were playing around to hide back in the cat nest, and then turned back to check on the dog.
It knew that it had sought the wolfhound's shelter in order to live in the yard, so it had no reason to object to whatever dog the wolfhound picked up next, but it was really worried that the strange dog would hurt its kittens.
Meow meow meow...Why do you always pick up animals randomly!
Thinking about it this way, this place is not safe anymore. How about we run away?
"Woof."
Just then, Xiaohua heard Tianlang's arrangements for the stray dogs.
After leading the slightly uneasy stray dog into the yard, Tianlang took out his own doghouse and dragged it to the wall outside the main gate, indicating that the stray dog could sleep here.
It will rest near the cat bed in the yard, and you can call it at any time if anything happens.
“Woo… woo…”
The stray dog hardly dared to step into this beautiful doghouse that looked smooth and soft, even if it had simply taken a bath with clean water. But it knew clearly that it was not very clean and sleeping here would definitely dirty the doghouse.
It thought it would be better if it slept on one side.
"Woo, woof..."
The voice, which the doctor diagnosed as broken bones and ruptured vocal cords, made intermittent sounds, like a musical instrument with a strange tone, both cramped and humble.
But it still tries to lower its voice as much as possible to show its softness and express its gratitude for being treated well.
Today might be its best day yet.
The stray dog wagged its tail awkwardly, its eyes timid, but it tried hard to smile like the domestic dogs that had once peeped in from the park.
It doesn't care about the dirty water it was splashed with during the day or the glass shards in its dog food. After all, this is the most common part of its wandering life, but it rarely feels help and kindness.
"Woo, woo." Thank you, thank you.
"It's time to eat—"
The human's call interrupted the communication between the two dogs. The stray dog's attention was diverted and it subconsciously turned its head to look at the human, cautiously guessing the human's mood.
So it didn't see Sirius' reaction.
After being solemnly thanked by the stray dog, the retired military dog did not feel relieved or satisfied. On the contrary, its brows drooped slightly, the corners of its mouth turned down, and it stared at the stray dog's back with a somewhat sad expression.
For some reason, it always feels that simply taking stray dogs home temporarily to provide them with relief and assistance does not help them out of their predicament.
If a stray dog is only released after a short period of relief, it will still be a stray dog. After returning to the street, it may continue to rummage through garbage dumps and survive in the cracks of the human world. It will not understand until it dies that survival only means survival.
This is useless, it only treats the symptoms and not the root cause.
Perhaps the stray dog itself will be satisfied with the life during this period and feel that short-term happiness is also happiness, but for the retired military dog who has witnessed the complexity of human society, it only feels lost and self-blame, as if it has not done well enough.
But it doesn't know what it can do anymore.
Without the owner's permission and support, it couldn't even take the puppy for treatment. The working ability that it was proud of was of no use in helping this group of stray dogs.
What should we do to slightly change their situation?
While eating, Tianlang was still absent-minded and almost knocked over the water bowl, causing the tabby cat who was coaxing its cubs in the yard to glance at it several times.
Narrator:
"The soldier's moral integrity made the soldier king unable to bear to see the gangster abuse himself so much, so he took the initiative to lend a hand and took the gangster back home."
"A meal, a bowl of soup, and a warm little bed, just such simple treatment, made the little thug feel at home and took off the vicious disguise that protected him."
"It was at this time that the Soldier King realized the plight of those hooligans who were helpless."
"Perhaps in the eyes of those second-generation rich, they are hooligans who waste their time and roam the streets doing nothing. Their current lives are all their own fault, but only they themselves know the actual pain and sorrow."
"If ordinary people found out about this, they would probably just sigh and at most give some help occasionally, but not do more."
"But he is different. He wants to change them."
The audience applauded.
【Oh, Officer Xiao De, you are so serious. I am crying. 】
[So upright, like a holy light shining upon him...but also very consistent with his status, worthy of being a police dog! ]
[Wow, if it was a humanoid gangster, I might really have the same idea as the ordinary people or even the rich second generation mentioned by the narrator, but stray dogs are really forced to do so. There is no place for them in human cities. Alas...]
[This puppy was baring its teeth and acting ferocious when we first met, but after Xiao De gave it a biscuit, it followed the dog foolishly without any vigilance. Even when the doctor pushed it down to check on it, it didn't bite anyone. It's really well behaved. ]
[It’s wet, and its mouth is covered with cuts. The dog’s life as a stray is really hard… I hope we can help it. ]
[The "they" in the last sentence seems to be considering all the stray dogs! So what do you think? ]
Not yet.
At night, Tianlang lay beside the cat's bed, staring into the sky in a daze.
As a military dog that spent the first half of its life in the barracks, its actions are actually relatively simple and rough, because it itself does not understand any complicated strategies.
When there is a strange noise in the neighbor's house, it will rush to the wall without thinking; when it sees a kitten being bullied, it will take it home directly after rescuing it; after experiencing repeated sneak attacks from the mother cat, it only thinks of interrogating the other party at the last minute; it doesn't care about the dog snacks from the mother cat that come from unknown sources, and happily eats them all, which leads to the subsequent compensation issue...
From various events, it can be seen that although Tianlang is an upright retired military dog, he has not yet adapted to the small details of social interaction.
As for its ability to influence Xiaohua and touch Yebao, it is because that is its nature and its true feelings are revealed.
The stray dog problem we are facing now has completely touched upon Tianlang’s weak point.
After all, the dilemma of stray dogs is that they are unable to integrate into human society, and they are also beginners in this field and are really stretched.
Tianlang turned over, exposed his belly and looked up at the sky.
If that doesn't work, teach the stray dogs some skills, train them, and then send them to their human colleagues.
Although it was selected from a young age, what if there is a stray dog that is talented and learns quickly and can be made an exception to work in the military camp?
Life in the military camp is a bit hard, but once you get used to it, it's quite satisfying to complete your mission as a military dog. It's no worse than living a muddle on the streets for the rest of your life.
It seems like this is the only thing it can do...Woof?
Just as he came to this conclusion, something soft suddenly crawled onto his stomach. Tianlang took a look and found that it was indeed a familiar little white cat.
Late at night, instead of sleeping in the cat's bed with his brothers and sisters, he came to find it again.
“Huluhulu~”
The little white cat rubbed the wolfhound's belly, crawled forward like a caterpillar, and dived into the wolfhound's thick and warm collar. The snoring sound it made could be clearly heard in the middle of the night.
Sirius was used to it, and after rubbing the kitten with his chin, he planned to go to sleep.
But at this moment, another claw stepped on it.
Woo?
The wolfhound's eyes, which had just been closed, opened instantly, and it looked at the tabby cat pacing on it in surprise.
Meow, it feels good on the feet, no wonder kids like it so much.
This is much more comfortable than a cat bed.
Xiaohua ignored the big dog's surprised look, stepped on the other dog's body naturally, and found a suitable place to lie down.
Look up and get to the point.
It came to talk to Tianlang about stray dogs.
If necessary, it can provide some advice. After all, it has been in human society for many years and is definitely better than a wolfhound in this regard.
Tianlang: !!
It never doubted the ability of the tabby cat. Compared with the stray dogs seen today, Xiaohua, who is also a stray animal, has a smooth life. At least it has never failed in winning the love and feeding of humans.
On the day when they went to the park to get snacks, Xiaohua left the team for a few minutes on the way home, and when she came back she was holding a sausage in her mouth, which made Tianlang, who was traveling with her, admire her very much.
If such a cat is willing to help, that would be great.
Tianlang was so overjoyed that he even stood up slightly and nearly knocked the kitten in his collar off. It was Xiaohua who held him down and prevented him from being overjoyed.
Meeting the big dog's surprised gaze, Xiaohua raised her head proudly and explained that she was just thinking about the kittens in the yard. After all, she was worried about a strange dog living here.
“Woo.”
Anyway, I'd appreciate any help.
Sirius adjusted his posture to allow the cat to nest more comfortably, and then listened particularly carefully to the cat's survival experience in the human world.
Yeah, that’s how it is!
So that's how it is. In this regard...
I never thought about that...
The wolfhound took notes carefully in his mind, and Xiaohua gradually calmed down after feeling guilty at first.
In fact, cats meddle in other people's affairs out of a sense of guilt.
After all, when it saw the stray dog moving in, it suspected that the wolfdog's so-called shelter was just a lie to the cat. It felt that this place was unsafe and almost ran away with its cubs overnight.
Then, it learned that Tianlang planned to sleep next to the cat's bed - this was obviously an act to reassure its family, but just a few seconds ago, it was still speculating maliciously about the other party.
Xiaohua felt a pang of conscience.
I feel like after meeting this wolfhound, it feels guilty more often meow...
After observing that Sirius seemed to be extra concerned about the stray dog's subsequent life, the cat consciously found a way to compensate, which led to the current scene.
"Meow."
After imparting the theoretical experience without reservation, Xiaohua emphasized a few points specifically to protect her reputation.
After all, cats and dogs have their own boundaries, and the techniques it talks about may not be effective on dogs.
Most stray cats can keep themselves nice and clean so as to attract the attention of humans, but this is not necessarily the case for stray dogs.
Xiaohua secretly glanced at the stray dog that was brought into the house to sleep, and wrinkled her nose, seeming a little disgusted.
That thing stinks and looks dirty, no wonder no one likes it.
Xiaohua made a very irresponsible suggestion:
“Meow, meow, meow!”
If you want to be loved by humans like cats, you should lick your fur more, tan yourself until you are soft and fragrant, and then fall down on the path that humans must pass by!
Everything is about cats!
After all, cats are the cutest and most perfect creatures!
“…Woof.”
Tianlang licked Xiaohua's cheek helplessly. Although these suggestions sounded unreliable, he still thanked her sincerely.
Thanks, kitty.
Cats are the main contributors.
"Meow~"
Xiaohua was very satisfied with being stroked, and the guilt in her heart disappeared. She stretched lazily, curled up on the wolfhound's belly again and closed her eyes.
It is very justified.
The cats are the heroes, what’s wrong with just sleeping on their stomachs? !
Of course, the wolfhound had no intention of stopping it.
Having a kitten sleeping on its belly is not a burden to it. Moreover, it has gained a lot of unprecedented knowledge tonight. It is very grateful to Xiaohua for her help.
As for how to put it into practice on stray dogs, let them think about it carefully...
Narrator:
"Just when the soldier king was at a loss and didn't know what to do, the widow who had previously sheltered him came to visit late at night."
"After years of struggling in society, the widow certainly has experience and skills that the soldier king does not have. I think she can help these lost hooligans."
"The widow is willing to help, but the price is ..."
[The price is to let me touch it! ! ]
[Hahahaha, the original work also has a part where he hugs a woman's thighs? Okay, okay, that's how we play it, right! ]
[Visiting late at night, um...it's hard not to visit when you sleep next to the cat's bed! ]
[I don’t know why I feel relieved when I see cats helping me! After all, cats are popular with everyone, so they should be able to give stray dogs a lot of advice! ]
[I understand! So the widow is the official match, right? The woman behind the soldier king! A beautiful woman who can talk and a think tank!]
[Okay, okay, cats and dogs join forces and the world is mine! ]
The atmosphere in the live broadcast room became cheerful because of the late-night episode.
The next day, the audience saw Tianlang talking to Little Wanderer and saying something.
Oh, I guess they must have listened to the cats’ advice and reformed the stray dogs!
What happens next?
Image transformation or temperament training?
At the same time, Xiaohua postponed her daily hunting plan and sat on the wall, intending to evaluate the progress of the stray dogs' transformation.
Should I lick my fur first to get rid of the bad smell? Or should I bask in the sun to make my fur fluffy and soft?
I feel like each one is important!
Xiaohua was thinking about it, and the next second she saw the two dogs in the yard walking side by side to the shed in the southwest corner.
Then, under its shocked gaze, the stray dog began to jump over the hurdles.
Xiaohua: Hiss, that’s not right. The script I remember was not like this?
Tian Lang: (Thinking all night) Let’s do military training first! I’ll be recruited as a guaranteed recruit!
