Urban Military Dog
These stray dogs ran away too fast, and Tianlang had no intention of chasing them.
After confirming that there were no other strange smells around, it turned back to the lawn where the dogs were gathered. Before it could find a dog to ask for details, the dogs, who were originally a little embarrassed, took the initiative to surround it, and their excited barking almost drowned it out.
"Woof!" Awesome!
“Woof, woof, woof!” Oh my God, you’re so brave!
"Ahhh!" I didn't even dare to breathe just now!
It seems that although they appear to be distracted, the dogs are actually paying attention to Sirius's movements.
When they saw the German Shepherd follow the unfamiliar smell without hesitation and scare away the stray dogs with its aura, they felt excited and proud, as if they had won the duel.
Why not count!
This police dog is also raised by humans! Just like them!
As for those stray dogs, they have always been a lingering shadow in the hearts of domestic dogs.
I don’t know when it started, but when domestic dogs were carefree playing on the lawn and picking up balls, stray dogs appeared.
They don't make any noise or bark, and their presence is extremely low. Their hair is mostly tangled, dull and dusty, making them look extremely unkempt and miserable.
There was not much flesh on its body, the tendons that maintained its movement were tightly attached to the bones, the ribs were clearly visible, and it was covered only with a layer of dull hair. It was the most common stray dog one could imagine.
If they just passed by once, the domestic dogs might not have any impression of them, but -
For some unknown purpose, these stray dogs have been guarding the outermost grass of the lawn, occasionally staring at the domestic dogs on the lawn with extremely dark eyes, and their bodies twitching strangely from time to time, which makes the first domestic dog who discovered them feel creepy, fearing that if it gets closer in the next second, it will be dragged away and bitten to death by the group of stray dogs.
Domestic dogs are even afraid of tabby cats, let alone stray dogs like this that are obviously mixed up in society.
Therefore, when stray dogs are around, most domestic dogs will resist going to the lawn to play, and only a few large dogs that are really bored at home dare to stay on the lawn.
And today, the stray dogs are here again.
The family dogs were originally regretting that today's exercise was wasted, but they didn't expect that Tianlang would directly drive away the stray dogs and resolve the danger.
Yay!!
As expected of a police dog! Super reliable!
The dogs returned to the lawn, wagging their tails, rubbing against the wolfhounds that stood still and stared into the distance, and then went off to roam freely on their own.
It was Yebao's turn to rub against him. He looked at Tianlang, then looked in the direction the other was looking at, and said in confusion: "Awoo?"
What's wrong? What's wrong?
Is there any danger?
As a career-oriented puppy who is determined to build a good relationship with the police dog and get a job, Ye Ye does not intend to just rub against the police dog like ordinary domestic dogs. He decides to take the initiative and share the police dog's worries.
Although it can't help much, it can make the police dog happy, hehe.
Wagging his tail happily, Yebao smiled foolishly, and raised his head to wait for Tianlang's reply.
“…Woof.”
Tianlang withdrew his gaze and responded in an ambiguous manner. He did not explain too much to Yebao and just asked it to go and play.
Speaking out its thoughts might make these dogs unhappy.
Just now, after catching a glimpse of the thin bodies and bloodshot, frightened eyes of those stray dogs, it could not regard them as bad guys, and even felt that they were a little pitiful.
Why is it so...
Narrator:
"That day, the soldier king met a few hooligans on the street."
"Because these hooligans were acting strangely, his occupational disease kicked in and he subconsciously scared them all away."
"The second-generation rich people who were traveling with him all praised this and complained to him that this group of hooligans had bad intentions and surrounded them every day with bad intentions. They said that these guys should have been beaten up long ago! It would be best if they didn't dare to come here again!"
"After hearing all this, the soldier king did not express any feelings. He just looked at the backs of the gangsters with a subtle mood."
[Hmm? The little hooligans are referring to those stray dogs, right?]
[I was wondering why the domestic dogs in the park looked a little nervous today. It turns out there are a few stray dogs staring at them in the corner...hiss, they look scary.]
[Yes, it was dirty and had fleas all over its body. It looked like a dog from a completely different world from domestic dogs.]
[Although, they became like this because they were wandering around. If they had a choice, they wouldn’t want to be dirty and hide in a corner to watch over other dogs, right? ]
[Woo woo, if it were a human, it would probably be self-degrading, but there is really nothing that can be done about dogs. They can only survive in the cracks of a human city...]
[But when stray dogs gather together, it's hard for both people and dogs to treat them well, right? It's also very likely that they will scare people to death, which is very dangerous. ]
[Will Officer Xiao De help? I think this description from the narrator is interesting! ]
Tianlang returned to Li Lianying with a heavy heart.
"What's wrong? Didn't you have fun today?"
The old man touched the wolfhound's face, feeling somewhat puzzled.
Ever since the day Tianlang stopped taking the bite stopper out of the house, the old man found that his dog had established a closer relationship with the domestic dogs in the park. He even brought Xiaohua to play with the domestic dogs not long ago.
With such a close relationship when he is out, and close interaction with cats when he is at home, Tianlang gradually stopped worrying about discipline and began to relax, and he also acted cute with humans in exchange for snacks more frequently.
This is a good thing for retired military dogs, as it means they are beginning to integrate into normal social life.
At this critical juncture, Li Lianying paid more attention to the psychology of the wolfhound.
"Is it that little Samoyed that didn't play with you?"
On the way home, the old man comforted the dog from time to time.
"It's okay. If there's a conflict, we can solve it face to face. We can still be good friends then."
"Why don't we ask Xiaohua for help? I remember Xiaohua is quite popular. Many puppies lined up to see it before."
"Or are you hungry or thirsty? Let's go home now. You can choose what you want to eat from the cupboard."
The wolf responded to every word of the human very docilely, but at a certain moment, it suddenly turned in a certain direction and stopped.
It was a small alley, probably where residents dumped their garbage, and it emitted a foul odor.
In the past, when walking here, Sirius' overly sensitive nose would make it speed up its pace involuntarily, and it would rarely walk ahead of humans, urging them to leave quickly.
But now it has stopped.
Li Lianying stopped and followed the wolfhound's movements. After he stood still, he vaguely heard some movement deep in the alley.
Woo…Ahh…
What came with the wind was an intermittent, low wailing sound.
It does not belong to humans, but to the same species as the wolf.
After hearing this sound, the wolfhound subconsciously raised its front paws, which stayed in the air for a long time but did not land on the ground.
"Woo?"
May I?
The wolf turned to look at the human, with a hint of request in his eyes.
Phew, I almost made the decision on my own again.
It's really embarrassing to say, but after coming to this new place, it has violated many of the previous rules because of the excessive tolerance of the new owner.
Whether it's about the treatment of cats or snacks to soothe the family dog...
Its previous work was more inclined towards subduing enemies and tracking and exploring. It was only after experiencing these two things that it realized that it might be a little...meddling?
But all in all, this is indeed an action that comes from its heart, so it will always do it subconsciously when it is not restrained.
However, it is still a loyal dog, and when its owner is around, it will definitely ask for human opinions first.
Li Lianying's answer did not disappoint it: "Let's go in and take a look."
The man and the dog slowly walked into the depths of the alley.
“Ah——”
As if it had sensed the arrival of a stranger, the stray dog, which had been whimpering weakly, immediately started barking loudly in a bluffing manner.
But this sound sounds strange.
His voice was hoarse, unclear, and even had some air leakage. He couldn't shout loudly at all. It was like his voice was completely broken.
When he got close enough and saw the stray dog hiding behind the green trash can, Li Lianying was speechless for a moment.
This stray dog was probably splashed with dirty water. Its fur was stuck tightly to its body. It should be an adult dog, but it looked like a small ball and was extremely thin.
Next to it was a rummaged-through garbage bag with food scraps scattered all over the floor.
Li Lianying didn't feel anything when he didn't see this on weekdays, but when he witnessed with his own eyes the scene of such small animals struggling to survive, he felt a little bit of pity in his heart.
How about taking it home temporarily, cleaning it, and then finding someone to adopt it?
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw the wolfhound beside him take a step forward and bark a few times in a very stern tone: "Woof! Woof woof!"
Tianlang rarely showed any ferocity to small animals, and his sudden severity even caught Li Lianying by surprise.
"Woof!"
The stray dog in the corner was obviously frightened, but it still barked a few times and leaned towards the wall inconspicuously, as if trying to hide something.
“Woo——”
But Sirius refused to give in, and his voice was so low that even humans could hear the threat in it.
Li Lianying frowned and was about to stop Tianlang from pressing forward, but the next second he saw the stray dog in the corner groan and reluctantly spit out what was in its mouth.
A ball of dog food covered with saliva and blood.
To be precise, it is dog food mixed with glass shards.
Narrator:
"I only encountered the gang when I was out during the day, and the soldier king happened to run into one of them in the evening."
"He witnessed with his own eyes how the other person had to consume his health just to survive on a daily basis."
Eating food with glass shards to make a living is indeed a health-depleting behavior.
But other than that, there doesn't seem to be much the stray dogs can do.
It was doused with cold water while foraging for food. The courage it had finally mustered from watching the interaction between people and pets in the park was extinguished, and it could only run to an empty garbage dump to forage for food again.
The surprise was finding something edible that looked like the food that domestic dogs eat.
So even though it felt a stinging pain when it rolled its tongue into the food, it still felt satisfied and ate very quickly, fearing that a dog would come and snatch the food from it.
The audience doesn't know this, but they still feel pity.
[Shocked, why is there glass shards in dog food? ]
[Maybe it was placed too close, so the dog accidentally ate the glass shards? Was it because he couldn't bear to throw away the precious food? 】
[Ahh, so pitiful, no wonder it was that scream, could the vocal cords be damaged? ]
[Can you take them to see a doctor? So pitiful... If this is what a gangster is, I don't even dare to imagine their daily lives.]
“… Ugh.”
Seeing the stray dog spit out the food, Tianlang's voice became much gentler.
It turned its head, wanting to ask its owner something, but the old man seemed to have a telepathic connection with it and spoke first: "How about we take it home first?"
Tianlang responded and originally wanted to go forward directly, but seeing the stray dog's resistance and alert reaction, it thought for a moment, suddenly turned back, and nudged the old man's pocket with its head.
There were some snacks prepared for it by humans, which were perfect for comforting the stray dog.
Li Lianying understood its meaning and reached into his pocket.
“Woo…”
The stray dog in the corner chose to close its eyes and escape from everything after spitting out the food.
It was completely powerless to resist and could only pray silently that the food hidden behind it would not be taken away, so that it could rely on it to survive for the next few days.
No matter what, we still have to live.
The meaning of life, or the meaning of survival, occasionally emerges for a moment in its busy brain.
When it and other stray dogs spy on the happy lives of domestic dogs, it sometimes imagines that one day it can live in the sunshine and bathe in the love of humans.
But even its former stray dog companion has fallen to this state, what else is there for it to think about...
"Woof."
The strange cry brought it back to consciousness.
It raised its eyes timidly and saw the wolfhound it had met once standing in front of it in a friendly manner, holding a delicious snack in its mouth and lowering its head to place it at its feet.
The other party invited like this -
You look like you need help.
Can you come with me?
