Chapter 70
As the competition of climbing over the fence got underway, more and more puppies were seen by people who came to adopt them, and they were quickly adopted. Today was Saturday, so many people did not rush to take the puppies home after adopting them, but let the dogs continue to play here.
It was almost noon, and Lin Gui stopped processing the adoption procedures. She used the loud speaker in the broadcasting room to call everyone who had come today to go to the cafeteria for lunch.
It was almost time for the puppies to eat. When it was time for dinner, everyone headed towards the cafeteria. The puppies who had originally gone somewhere unknown also showed up, such as Da Huang and Xiao Hei. After Da Huang's strong persuasion, Xiao Hei still allowed Da Huang to call him by this name. Hei Yan was now exclusive to his owner.
The puppies with owners all ran over to find their owners. The newly adopted puppies in the base were not very familiar with their owners, so most of them were still with their former counselors. However, Xiao Hei recognized his owner and saw his owner walking towards the cafeteria from a distance, so he ran to greet him happily.
This behavior really gave Huang Xu face, thanks to his good eye for identifying the puppy.
Lin Gui's arrangement for lunch was to feed the dogs first and then everyone else would eat. The dogs' lunch was in the canteen's food preparation room. Today, she walked the new owners through the entire process. First, they had to find their own puppy's bowl. The members of the dog club were notified to bring their own bowls.
Then weigh the food to ensure that this meal can provide the dogs with energy for afternoon activities while not exceeding the limit to prevent fat accumulation. Finally, add the nutritional elements or medicines that the dogs lack to the meal. If the puppy is healthy and has everything, there is no need to add anything.
Finally, take the bowl to where the dogs are and let them eat. It is best to have a fixed place so that the dogs can get used to it.
Therefore, the pet base feeds the puppies at regular times and locations. Each puppy has its own bowl rack, and the counselors put the puppies' food on the rack. Some owners, like Huang Xu, follow the counselors to feed his Hei Yan. Hei Yan ate the food fed by his owner and it was delicious. Some people looked at the rows of puppies eating through the window and took pictures excitedly.
Some smart people know that this is a great opportunity to interact with puppies. They pick out puppies that have not been adopted yet and interact with them while eating next to them, hoping to take them home at the end of the afternoon activity.
Some people come to adopt puppies, but the puppies don’t like them, just like the man standing in front of the Border Collie now. He keeps talking in front of the Border Collie, but the Border Collie ignores him, doesn’t even look at him, and doesn’t even let him touch it. However, the boy in front of the Border Collie is very patient and never leaves him.
Dahuang had enough fun in the morning, running around with Xiaohei. He only had time to maintain his relationship with Lin Gui at noon. He put his head on Lin Gui's knees, blinking his big eyes and looking at Lin Gui with watery eyes, as if he wanted Lin Gui to touch him. Of course, Lin Gui couldn't resist and obediently plucked a handful of Dahuang.
The puppies eat very quickly, and after eating, we let them move freely indoors. At noon, the sun is very strong outside, so the outdoor environment is not open. However, at this time, the glass greenhouse is very comfortable with the sunshade halfway pulled up and a few windows opened. It is very suitable for puppies to take a nap here.
After finishing the puppy business, everyone went to the cafeteria to eat. Fortunately, Lin Gui had prepared some fruit snacks when entertaining the guests, so everyone didn't stay hungry until now.
There are only a dozen or twenty employees at the base in Lin Gui, and it is not realistic to open a separate cafeteria. So they ordered employee meals from a nearby restaurant and asked them to deliver them for every meal. Today, since there were many guests, they ordered a little more.
The base is located on the edge of the city, far away from the city center and has many beautiful scenery. A big river flows two kilometers away, and various farmhouses are stationed on the riverside. They all rely on the water for their livelihood, and there are different fresh fish to eat every day. Today's dish is decided by Lin Gui, and what to eat at noon is usually decided by the administrative staff.
Squirrel fish, whitebait stewed with eggs, braised spareribs, steamed sea bass, etc. are all good dishes to go with rice. The fish chosen have few bones and everyone is very satisfied with the meal.
After dinner, many of the people Lin Gui had invited left with their dogs. The morning had been a busy one, but in the hot afternoon, with nothing much to do, they took their dogs home for a nap. Some of the people who had adopted dogs also left.
Lin Gui was busy packing the things the dogs needed, including bowls and doghouses, as well as a physical examination form that Lin Gui had suddenly remembered. She asked 009 to pay attention to the puppies who needed care, and handed their owners a relatively comprehensive list of precautions, which stated what needed to be supplemented, how much to supplement every day, how many days to supplement, etc., so that the new owners could get through the novice period perfectly, and it would be up to them to plan their future affairs.
Those who did not leave were all thinking carefully about the Lin Gui base. For example, Xu Xinyue and Tang Yuan arranged temporary puppy kennels for Jingjing and Xixi to sleep in, while they themselves carefully studied the buildings and facilities here in Lin Gui. What shocked them the most was the dog shower room, which was so convenient. It would be great if it could be opened to the public as a large dog bathhouse.
Xu Xinyue thought so and also made this suggestion to Lin Gui.
"Forget it. This place was built for 200 dogs. It can't accommodate more." Lin Gui's heart was moved for a second, but she still refused.
"Yeah, it's not easy to manage too many dogs." Tang Yuan agreed. Just think about it, what if the dogs poop in the water? That would be terrible.
The puppies here in Lingui gradually develop the habit of regular defecation, so unless there are special circumstances, the above situation should not happen. If it happens, you can only drain the water first, then add water, and drain and add water again to let the puppies in the bathhouse rinse well. Fortunately, the water temperature here is controllable, so there is no need to worry about the dogs catching a cold.
Most of the puppies in the base are taking a nap, or lying in their own nests, or lying under the sunshades of the glass greenhouse. Most of the puppies who are full don't want to move.
There were about a hundred people left who came to adopt puppies in the morning. Sixty percent of those who left went home without adopting a puppy, probably because they gave up. Some of those who adopted dogs stayed and played with their own dogs here. So after the whole morning, only about thirty puppies were registered in Lin Gui. It seems that the dog adoption activity will be a protracted battle.
Thinking that the number of dogs here will increase in the future, it would be best if this kind of adoption activity were held once a week.
Fortunately, there are still more than 80 people who have not given up and continue to win the hearts of the puppies here. Lin Gui also hopes that they can win the love of the puppies in the base.
How should I put it, time spent in a daze always passes quickly, and it was already four o'clock in the afternoon. The sun had gone down quite a bit by then, and there were many areas on the lawn covered with trees, which provided shade and were suitable for playing outside. So Lin Gui opened the railings leading to the outdoors, and the puppies surrounding the railings suddenly rushed outside like an army passing through. It seemed that they had accumulated a lot of strength in the afternoon.
There probably won't be many pairs formed in this last hour. Everyone is indoors in the afternoon, and there is enough time to spend with the puppies, so only about twenty pairs can be formed. The remaining puppies can be left with Lin Gui for the time being, since Lin Gui can afford to raise them anyway.
By this time, most of the people invited by Lin Gui had left one after another. Even Xu Xinyue was in a hurry to go back and make dinner for Jingjing. After all, Lin Gui didn't provide dinner.
Most of the remaining ones are people who adopted dogs today. They hope to learn more here so that they can help their puppies adapt better when they return.
Jiji didn't go back either. His new friend Momo has already gone back. He is now playing with the little golden retriever Guaiguai. It is true that there is no friendship without fighting. The two dogs have experienced competition and have a pretty good relationship.
The owner of the little golden retriever, Guaiguai, is a pretty little girl. She is very sweet and cute, and she is very responsible for Guaiguai. Since adopting Guaiguai, she has been asking other parents of golden retrievers about various maintenance methods for golden retrievers all day long. She even asked Cheng Qiang, but unfortunately Cheng Qiang, like her, needs to supplement his knowledge.
Now that no one asked, I followed Lin Gui to see how Lin Gui got along well with these puppies.
How should I put it? Lin Gui has taken over this base for more than two months. She goes there once or twice a week on average, and brings a lot of snacks every time she goes. She also has Dahuang, a good social partner. Her image in the hearts of these dogs has always been positive, and even Border Collies will take the initiative to let her touch them.
Bian Collie Chuan Chuan: Do you think I’m stupid? This is a kind-hearted person who gave me money and resources. How can I not show some support?
So Lin Gui's path is difficult to replicate, not only in the dog world, but also in the cat world.
Speaking of Border Collie Chuan Chuan, it had no intention of going with the boy until the end of the event, and its expression towards it was very indifferent.
It was very strange when Lin Gui was packing up the event. Although Border Collie was a little arrogant, he had always been normal to the staff and security guard Cheng Daye here. This was the first time he treated someone rudely.
The boy who had been following the Border Collie left helplessly when he saw that the event was over. But before leaving, he said to Lin Gui, "Sister, can you please not let someone else adopt that dog? I will always come to see it."
"No, first of all, it's up to the dog to decide who to go with and who not to go with. Secondly, we probably won't be holding any more adoption events in the next few days. If you like puppies, you can come back next time." Lin Guiwan rejected his request. You can't make things difficult for a dog just because of human selfishness.
The event ended at five o'clock, and everyone left on their own after that. People who had dogs tried calling their dogs for the first time. Fortunately, everyone here was a dog owner. If they were in a crowded place, they would have felt embarrassed to call their dogs.
"Hei Yan, Xiao Hei, Hei Za." Huang Xu called out loudly, trying the names one by one, for fear that Xiao Hei would forget the new name he had just given him in the morning.
But Xiao Hei is a loyal and obedient dog. He came out as soon as he was called, and then ran towards Huang Xu. When he got in front of him, he jumped into his legs, looking very happy.
Huang Xu caught Xiao Hei steadily and was very happy. He took it home.
Dahuang watched from the side, feeling happy and sad. Will they meet again after Xiaohei left?
