Yun Feiyang worked part-time at the pet hospital on Saturday, and knocked on Shen Shi'an's door with two big bags of snacks on Sunday.
As soon as the door opens, a rich and attractive aroma of sweet and sour fruit hits your face.
Yun Feiyang looked at the disposable glove on Shen Shian's right hand: "What are you doing? What delicious food is so delicious?"
"Squeeze juice." Shen Shi'an let him in, closed the door, took off his gloves, and threw the one on his left hand into a small ball into the trash can in the living room.
Yun Feiyang put the snack bag on the shelf at the entrance and found his slippers from the shoe cabinet. Sitting on the sofa and changing shoes, I looked inside:
The windows in Shen Shi'an's home are bright and clean, the golden sunshine is streaming in from the balcony, and the backflow incense ornaments on the coffee table are rising up in green smoke. Everything is orderly and spotless, and everything is the same as usual——
Until he saw the little puppy rushing out of the kitchen sitting on the sweeping robot.
Xiao Hei bared two rows of small fangs and roared fiercely towards Yun Feiyang. He was halfway through the rush when Shen Shi'an raised his foot to stop the robot, reached out and pinched the back of the neck and picked it up: "Don't make trouble. Our own people.”
"You are one of our own, your whole family is one of our own! How dare a mere human being be called one of our own!"
Even though his weakness was restrained, he did not give up resistance. He hung on Shen Shi'an's hand and twisted his limbs back and forth, lowering his voice and howling into the sky: "Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo,wsssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss.
After Yun Feiyang finished changing his shoes, he walked over and asked curiously: "Hey, where did this dog come from? He looks quite energetic."
"Picked it up in the community." Shen Shi'an put the dog on the sofa and threatened softly: "Do you still want to eat meat?" Seeing the little thing whined twice and became quiet, he turned and walked into the kitchen.
Yun Feiyang walked around it and walked to the sofa on the other side to sit down. He looked at Xiao Hei with a curious look in his eyes and said loudly: "You are so fast. I just advised you to get a dog two days ago. I was still thinking about getting a dog from the hospital." I brought one for you, but I didn’t expect you to pick one up yourself. Judging from the head, it must have just been weaned. Have you met the female dog? Have you given it a name?”
"I only saw it when I picked it up. I asked the gatekeeper of the community yesterday. The gatekeeper said that he had not seen any adult stray dogs in the community. It probably got in by mistake somewhere." Shen Shian's voice came from the kitchen. Come on, "I've got a name, Xiao Hei."
"Hey hey hey, what a good name, what a name." Yun Feiyang pretended to cheer, and when he saw a box of beef jerky on the coffee table, he leaned forward and reached for it. As soon as his fingertips touched the box, Xiao Hei, who had just calmed down on the sofa opposite, seemed to be completely irritated. The hair on his body suddenly exploded. He kicked hard with his hind legs, and his mini body "swish" like a black lightning. He jumped from the sofa onto the coffee table, biting Yun Feiyang's finger hard——
The upper and lower teeth were bitten, and the crunching sound of piercing the air and slamming together could be clearly heard.
Yun Feiyang: "...!"
Holding his own hands, he shrank into the sofa, his face turned pale and he swallowed: he had no doubt that if he hadn't reacted quickly enough, he would have shed blood and lost one of his fingers on the spot. The look he looked at Xiao Hei was immediately full of sorrow, what are you doing! Eat your beef jerky!
Shen Shi'an came over and handed the glass in his hand to Yun Feiyang. At the same time, he pinched the back of Xiao Hei's neck and put it next to his legs to separate it from Yun Feiyang. He used a slight force with his palm to prevent it from moving: "Be honest. "
"Damn it," Yun Feiyang couldn't help but complain, "You're not a big man but you have a bad temper, but you're such a fierce dog."
Shen Shi'an touched Xiao Hei's neck and smoothed the dog's hair: "Fortunately, he is strong on the outside but hard on the inside. He looks fierce but he is actually very timid. He was hiding and crying secretly because he was afraid of the dark the night before." Recalling the scene at that time, his expression immediately changed. He became gentler, even the movements of his hands became much lighter.
Yun Feiyang swore that he saw a trace of distortion on Xiao Hei's furry dog face.
He raised the cup and stared at the blood-red liquid inside for a while, then brought it to his mouth and took a sip: "What is this...eh? It tastes delicious!" Yun Feiyang's eyes were bright, he raised his head and drank the cup in a few big gulps. He drank up all the liquid, "Is this a new drink you came up with? It tastes a bit like tomato, is there anything else?"
"It's just tomato juice, and there's a lot more. I'll put a few bottles in for you to take back to school." The tomato forest in the space was so prosperous that there were tens of thousands of tomatoes as big as basketballs. Shen Shi'an picked some and squeezed them. Juice, "In addition to juice, there is also tomato sauce, which tastes good. The temperature is low now, so it should be okay to leave it on the balcony of the dormitory for a few days."
"That's a great feeling," Yun Feiyang smacked his lips, "Where did you buy the tomatoes? The taste is so good. It's definitely the best tomato juice I've ever had!" It can all be solved in the evening.
Before Shen Shi'an could answer, Yun Feiyang noticed that the dog next to his legs was kicking its legs again and baring its teeth and whining at him. This time he understood: "Hey, this little thing you picked up is quite protective of its food. "
Deliberately and provocatively, he pulled out a piece of beef jerky from the box and took a big bite with an "Ah woo" sound.
Shen Shi'an struggled to comfort Xiao Hei, who suddenly became irritable. It was too late to stop Yun Feiyang, and he watched him swallow the mouthful of beef jerky.
Unable to maintain his provocative look for three seconds, Yun Feiyang frowned: "Hey, why does your beef jerky taste a little wrong? Is it expired?" He picked up the box and checked: "The production date is November... …It’s not expired.”
Shen Shi'an's eyes were full of unbearability: "...Xiao Hei licked it."
"What?"
"Xiao Hei has licked every piece of beef jerky in the box."
Yun Feiyang stared at the dog next to Shen Shi'an's legs, his face turned from red to black, from black to green, from green to white, and it was a wonderful moment. After a moment, he put the piece of beef jerky he had bitten back in very slowly, then rushed into the kitchen with a glass and poured four glasses of tomato juice in succession.
When he returned to the living room again, Shen Shi'an pretended that nothing had happened and turned to another topic: "Feiyang, what should I do if Xiao Hei refuses to eat dog food?"
"Won't eat dog food? Is he going on a hunger strike?"
"No, you still have to eat."
In fact, this little thing wants to eat everything except dog food, and its appetite is so big that it can almost catch up with an adult man. Shen Shi'an was worried that it would overstuff himself, so he just fed him a small mouthful last night. Only when he woke up this morning did he find a big one under the sofa. Pile of chocolate wrappers -
This little thing dug out the chocolate he brought back from the hospital out of nowhere, took off the wrapping paper and ate it cleanly. There was also a box of beef jerky that I probably couldn't eat anymore. It was hidden under the sofa and was pushed out by the sweeping robot. After being discovered by Shen Shi'an, Xiao Hei rushed over and licked the beef jerky one by one before him, and then used his claws to dig it back into the box.
Chocolate contains a large amount of theobromine, which is a highly toxic neurotoxin to dogs and can even be fatal in severe cases.
The dog ate a whole box, but it seemed like he was running around without any trouble. He chased after the sweeping robot that exposed the location of its beef jerky and gave it a beating.
Xiao Hei was obviously different from other dogs, which Shen Shian discovered after picking him up and taking him home. Not only are their eating habits different from those of ordinary dogs, but their IQ is far beyond the level of ordinary pets.
He initially suspected that it might be the spiritual spring water, but when he saw with his own eyes the "primitive forest" composed of aloe vera and pothos and the "tomato forest" more than four meters high, his initial doubts completely turned into conviction.
This dog is no longer an ordinary dog.
But no matter how smart the dog is, he still has to eat dog food.
"Is the dog food not palatable?" Yun Feiyang sat back on the sofa, "What brand did you buy? Show it to me."
Shen Shi'an brought two bags of dog food over, and Yun Feiyang flipped them over: "This brand is very good. It can be considered high-end among imported food, and it has high user reviews. Xiao Hei really doesn't want to eat it?"
As he spoke, he grabbed a small handful and brought it to Xiao Hei's mouth. He almost got bitten by the dog again.
"If you still refuse to eat such good dog food, you are probably used to it." Yun Feiyang took his hand back with his usual expression: "Just two hungry meals will be enough."
He paused and then said: "When did you pick it up? Haven't you been vaccinated yet? Stray dogs are easy to carry germs, so you need to be vaccinated against rabies and dog sex vaccinations. Don't you start class tomorrow? You just have time today. How about I take you to the pet hospital where I work? The director is very nice."
Shen Shi'an thought for a while and nodded: "Okay."
The place where Yun Feiyang works part-time is called Hapi Pet Hospital, which is not too far from H City Medical University. It takes about half an hour by bus. Fan Guoping drove, and Shen Shi'an and Yun Feiyang sat in the back seat. They arrived in less than ten minutes.
Shen Shi'an grabbed the back of Xiao Hei's neck to stop him from biting Yun Feiyang, and thought to himself: He will have to buy a dog bag and a dog leash later, and scratching his neck like this is not an option.
The facade of the pet hospital looks warm and cute. There are giant dolls of dogs and cats on the left and right. Because it is Sunday, it is quite lively inside, with the sounds of various pets and the conversations of owners and doctors mixed together.
Yun Feiyang opened the glass door first and walked in: "Sister Fang! Sister Fang, are you here? I've brought guests for you!"
Shen Shi'an then entered, and his tall and slender figure stood still in the hall. The originally noisy sound in the hospital slowed down and quickly became quiet——
Most of the eyes of pet owners and doctors were focused on Shen Shi'an, and the pet that was barking non-stop a second ago also weakened its tone for some unknown reason until it was completely silent.
A lady in her thirties wearing a white coat walked out of the room holding a document and said, "What are you shouting for? I haven't seen you attracting customers to me at work at ordinary times. Why are you working so hard today even if you don't go to work? Is it because the sun is too hot?" ..." The hearty voice stopped abruptly when he saw Shen Shi'an, and instantly became a little more delicate and soft: "Oh, um, who is this gentleman?"
Yun Feiyang raised his hand and put his arms around Shen Shi'an's shoulders: "This is my classmate and best brother. His name is Shen Shi'an. How about he? He is handsome. He is a famous school boy in our medical department. I have a crush on him." His girls can surround the Medical University more than ten times..."
Shen Shi'an interrupted him with a cold voice: "Let's get down to business."
"Hey, hey, OK," Yun Feiyang retracted his arm and pointed to the dog in his hand: "An'an picked up a dog in the community two days ago, this is it. I want to do a simple check and get a rabies vaccine. And Liulian. Sister Fang, this is my brother, the price should be a little more favorable, no matter what, it’s eight..."
"Discounts, discounts, discounts," the dean, who was called Sister Fang, invited the two into the consultation room, "50% off on all fees!"
Yun Feiyang: "..."
Feeling like you are losing value.
Sister Fang ignored him and asked Shen Shi'an to put the dog on the treatment table: "It's only been two days since you picked it up, right? Have you already taken a bath? Are there any wounds on your body? No, no, it's fine. I found parasites when I took a bath. Are there any worms? No, yes, your bowel movements are normal? Okay, is your diet regular?"
Shen Shi'an: "It refuses to eat dog food and insists on eating like humans."
"That may be because I have been wandering for a long time and I am not used to dog food. I just need to get used to it slowly." Shen Shi'an held Xiao Hei's neck while Sister Fang did a general check: "She seems to be healthy and in good spirits now. , and there are no parasites on the body surface. If Mr. Shen is worried, we can do a routine blood test and check some basic items in detail."
Shen Shian thought for a while and refused. It's not that he's afraid of spending money, but Xiao Hei has been drinking spiritual spring water for the past two days, and he's worried that some data that goes against common sense may be detected. What's more, I couldn't even kill it by eating chocolate. It does seem to be very healthy.
"Okay," Sister Fang nodded, "Then let's get the vaccine first. It looks like it's about two months old. The vaccine is a little late at this time, but it doesn't matter. Our suggestion is to get six doses first, six doses in total. Three injections, one every four weeks. After the third injection, we will give you a rabies injection. From now on, a six-in-one injection and one rabies injection every year will be enough. Take the first injection of the six-in-one injection today, and come back a week later for internal and external deworming."
Shen Shi'an said: "Thank you doctor."
"It's okay, it's okay, you're welcome, you're welcome." Sister Fang's face turned red.
"Our sister Fang is amazing," Yun Feiyang interjected, "She is a top student in the Agricultural University studying for a master's degree and a Ph.D. There is no pet in the world that she can't cure. Just put Xiao Hei in her hands, so don't worry. .”
The blush on Sister Fang's face deepened: "Where is it? It's nonsense. Well, I'll get the vaccine. Mr. Shen will wait a moment."
Yun Feiyang had just finished blowing his boss's rainbow fart, but he never expected that the "omnipotent" Sister Fang in his mouth would encounter difficulties when he turned around: Xiao Hei was all hairy and irritable, and was unwilling to let Sister Fang get an acupuncture. Even Shen It didn't help that Shi'an held his neck, and kept wailing and thrashing to prevent others from getting close.
Seeing that the little thing almost broke away from his hand and bit Sister Fang for the fourth time, Shen Shi'an sighed and said to Sister Fang: "Let me try it. Just pierce it directly from the neck and inject it under the skin, right?"
It was also the first time that Sister Fang saw such a difficult dog. She handed the syringe to Shen Shian: "Yes, Mr. Shen, be careful. After all, he is a stray dog and his temper is not as docile as a domestic one."
"I understand, thank you."
In order to prevent further irritation to the dog, Sister Fang backed out of the clinic after giving the syringe. Yun Feiyang also backed out of the door. Feeling uneasy, he quietly poked his head in again.
Shen Shi'an let go of the skin on the back of Xiao Hei's neck, smoothed the hair along the spine line with his sharp-jointed fingers, and squatted down to be at eye level with him: "Don't make trouble, can you just get the injection?"
"Ouch!" Xiao Hei bared his teeth at him fiercely.
"How about I go back and make braised pork for you. Use pork belly, half fat and half lean. It's crispy and fragrant and melts in your mouth. Pour the soup on white rice and eat it together. Eat as much as you want." Shen Shi'an said in a soothing tone. , there is rare patience and gentleness in the black gem-like eyes.
"Ouch..." The voice was a little softer this time, but it was obvious that he didn't intend to give in.
"I'll cook braised pork for you for a week."
"Ouch..."
"Two weeks."
"Woooo..."
"One month, no more."
This time Xiao Hei didn't scream, his round eyes stared straight at Shen Shi'an. There was no rage or anger in them, but a little grievance.
Shen Shi'an seemed to be blessed, and he understood its meaning in an instant: "...I promise that I will never force you to eat dog food again."
Yun Feiyang couldn't help laughing: "Oh, An'an, you're really good. It's a dog and not a human. How can it understand you? And you even started negotiating with it..."
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Hei, who had shown a fierce look not long ago, spread out his limbs and lay on the diagnosis and treatment table, turned his head and let out a soft "woof" at Shen Shi'an.
Yun Feiyang: "..."
A slap in the face is always like a tornado, so I can just shut up.
Shen Shi'an touched Xiao Hei's neck, carefully inserted the needle into the skin, and pushed the medicine in. After pulling out the needle, he rubbed its head twice: "It's so good."
Sister Fang walked in after learning that the vaccine was completed, "Oh, no one else is allowed to touch it, only Mr. Shen can touch it. It seems that Xiaohei and Mr. Shen are really destined. It is now 10:12, and we need to wait for half an hour for confirmation. Xiao Hei has no allergic reaction or strong rejection of the vaccine. Mr. Shen, sit down for a while. Do you want some water? If you are interested, how about I introduce you to canine sterilization?"
"sterilization?"
"Yes, we generally recommend sterilization for stray dogs. Although it sounds cruel, dogs actually have a different understanding of reproduction than humans. Neutering is not a very scary thing for them. On the contrary, it can effectively reduce the number of dogs. The risk of testicular cancer and prostate disease can also improve the aggressiveness of dogs and make them more docile. Research and surveys have shown that the average life span of dogs that have been neutered is much higher than that of dogs that have not been neutered. Woolen cloth."
Shen Shian, who had been unresponsive until he heard the last sentence, suddenly spoke: "Can dogs live longer after sterilization?"
"The research data shows this. My office has specific research reports and instructions on dog sterilization. It has both advantages and disadvantages. After Xiaohei has finished taking all the six-linked vaccines, it is almost time to consider sterilization. Otherwise, it is time to think about it. Sir, come with me and let me introduce it to you in detail?"
Shen Shian looked at Xiaohei.
Yun Feiyang said immediately: "Don't talk about this kind of thing in front of others. We have a cage in the hospital. An'an, put it in it and I'll watch here. If anything happens, I'll notify you immediately."
Shen Shi'an thought for a moment, nodded, picked up Xiao Hei and put him in the cage, and then followed Sister Fang out of the consultation room.
There was only one person and one dog left in the consultation room. Yun Feiyang moved a stool and sat across from Xiao Hei: "Does it feel uncomfortable?"
"Roar!" Xiao Hei bared two rows of small fangs at him.
"Tsk, you have such a bad temper. What a huge psychological shadow your wandering life has caused on you." Yun Feiyang didn't mind its attitude. When the conversation got up, he could chat with any dog: "Being picked up by An An and brought home. Do you know how lucky you are? Although he always has a cold face, he is actually good to his own people...and his own dogs. When I persuaded him to get a dog two days ago, I actually didn't have much hope, because He doesn't like to keep pets - this is not against you. He doesn't like to keep pets not because he doesn't like animals, but because your lifespan is much different than that of humans. Do you understand? He has been with you almost all his life. How sad it would be for a black-haired person to give away an old dog after passing away one after another and raising a pet that is destined to die before him."
Speaking of this, Yun Feiyang scratched his head: "I don't know if it's right to advise him to get a dog. If he doesn't get one, he will be too lonely. If he gets one, he will have feelings for you and bury you with his own hands. , how hurtful. In short, you have to fight for your reputation and try to live as long as possible and stay with him for a while, you know? Neutering is a good thing. After neutering, you will be healthy and delicious, and maybe you can break the record of the longest life span of dogs. Well, I’m optimistic about you, brother.”
Xiao Hei didn't even look at him from beginning to end. He was lying in the cage thinking about a question: "What is sterilization?"
At this moment, a doctor came in with a dog in his arms. The dog was limp all over, and its tail was wrapped with several layers of gauze. The dog owner followed behind him.
Yun Feiyang said hello: "You just finished the sterilization operation?"
The doctor nodded: "Yes, I haven't fully recovered from the anesthesia yet, so I have to keep it here for observation for a while."
The dog owner shook a small transparent bag in his hand, and the two bloody balls inside rolled back and forth with the movement: "The ones that were just cut off are still warm. I will keep them for our family treasures until they grow old." Bury them together."
Yun Feiyang smiled and was about to speak when there was a loud "bang" sound. Xiao Hei slammed into the cage. The force was so strong that he almost fell off the treatment table with the entire cage. Senhan's two rows of sharp teeth fiercely hit him. Biting the wire, he stared at Yun Feiyang with murderous eyes:
"Ouch!!!!!"
