Chapter Twenty-Five: The Calf Is Over, Silly Dog!
"Haji, I know you're the smartest. But you're a working dog, and you still have a lot to do in the future, so you need to learn to work with humans now and complete some training subjects. You see that the other dogs have gone back, how about I leave you behind and let's do a little training?...... it's not too difficult" Xiaoyu hugged Haji on his back, and kept rubbing his stomach for Haji with his right hand, making Haji enjoy it and embarrassed at the same time.
"You see, you have the highest prestige among all the puppies, if you don't train, the other dogs will learn from you, and they won't participate in the training, won't that be a bad thing? Who will catch those bad people in society in the future? And who will save those who suffer in an accident? Isn't it possible to let them be pet dogs? Empty of a working dog's body, but live like a pig? Live all day by selling cute pets? How boring is that!" Xiaoyu didn't care if Haji could listen to it or not, just like Tang Seng chattering endlessly.
"Know, know...... You're just so verbose, and you'll definitely be a talker when you grow up. If you're old, she must be a little old woman with a broken mouth......" Haji hummed comfortably while enjoying Xiaoyu's star treatment, while slandering in his heart.
He Haji naturally understands, he is just using his prestige in the dog group to give Dacheng and the others a disadvantage. As long as Dacheng and the others are jealous of him, they will find a way to send him away, whether it is to be a working dog or a pet dog, as long as they can leave this place, then Haji's plan to return to his hometown to visit his mother can be implemented.
As for the other puppies, they naturally want to be working dogs. If nothing else, just because they all have enough intelligence and ability, it's better to be a working dog than to give it to a stupid human to be a pet dog. Haji felt distressed at the thought of these clever dogs being adopted by humans and then being kept as playthings by those stupid masters, whose innate wisdom and skills were not used.
How did dogs and humans establish a friendship relationship? Naturally, they were mutually beneficial! In ancient times, both humans and wolves faced the harsh challenges of nature, and in order to survive, human beings and the first wolves gradually came together. At that time, humans needed the loyalty and ability of wolves, and wolves needed the wisdom and help of humans. Since then, the wolf has gradually changed and developed according to the needs of humans, and finally became a dog.
Throughout the history of the development and evolution of dogs, they either help humans hunt, or take care of their homes and yards for humans and guard their safety. It wasn't until later, when humans lived too richly, that some dogs were gradually raised to live by wagging their tails and begging for mercy.
It is true that dogs and humans need to love each other, but that kind of pampering, which is based on psychological comfort, will only make dogs become fools that their ancestors look down on. What is the point of surviving even if such dogs survive? Because once they are free from human support, they become incompetent stray dogs, incapable of foraging, incapable of surviving, living without any dignity, and can only die a miserable death in hunger, cold, and human disgust.
Of course, Haji didn't think about this as a human being, but when he actually became a dog, he began to think about it from a dog's point of view. Therefore, he would rather all the dogs in the world be capable dogs, able to cooperate and survive on an equal footing with humans, rather than relying on human pity to survive.
What a helpless word, although it is said that this word is used on people, but who can say that it has nothing to do with dogs? Haji is willing to let all the dogs in the world live with dignity from the bottom of his heart, although he also knows that he can't do it at all, but he can at least let the dogs in this dog farm do their best.
"Haji, do you think this is good? I'll take you to train, I know that with Haji's cleverness, these training courses must be super easy, but you still have to complete it. That way the other puppies know what to do, and that's good for them. Besides, Haji, you are so smart, why don't you show it through these training courses?" When he said this, Xiaoyu suddenly put his mouth to Haji's ear, and whispered like a child: "You should behave well and surprise the people who looked down on you at the beginning." For example, my father said that you won't live long, and Uncle Zhang also said that you are born weak, and your brain is definitely not smart. They look down on you so much, do you want them to look down on you?"
Haji was almost amused by Xiaoyu's careful thoughts. Not to mention, although Xiaoyu is not very old, she still has a lot of heart, at least she did the right thing in motivating Haji. While she may have done it under the guidance of her father, or even unconsciously using the ploy, it was for Haji that he had to do it.
Now that he has his own goals and is ready to leave the dog farm later, Haji has to show some ability and level. He needs to show a little strength in front of Dacheng and others, so that it is convenient for them to recommend himself to the relevant parties, and then it is convenient for him to leave the dog farm, and leave his future unit at the right time, and then he can smoothly embark on the return journey back to his hometown to visit his mother.
As for the exemplary role and impact of his own initiative to participate in training and show his strength on the puppies, Haji actually thinks quite clearly. These puppies will need to face the outside world alone in the future, whether they are working dogs or pets, their future is determined by humans. Since sooner or later it will be up to humans to judge and decide their future, it is of course necessary to gradually adapt to the requirements and commands of humans from now on.
The puppies did not obey the management and guidance of Dacheng and others before, mainly due to the influence of him, the eldest in the puppy group. In fact, as long as Haji has achieved the purpose of demonstrating to humans, he does not mind what kind of lifestyle the puppies adopt. He even hopes that these puppies can meet the requirements of working dogs and have a good way out in the future. After all, in human society, if you want to live the most decent and guaranteed life, you have to be a working dog. As for being a pet dog wagging its tail and begging for mercy, Haji himself would definitely not do that anyway. After all, he was a human being living in the twenty-first century, so how could he give up human dignity for the sake of a bite to eat?
So in this case, Haji is ready to be trained and then ready to become a working dog. It's just that he doesn't want to accept the training of Dacheng and others for the time being, he wants to create an image of himself who is not cooperative and not easy to mess with, so as to lay a solid foundation for him to leave the dog farm. Now that his goal has been basically achieved, and Xiaoyu has come to persuade him, of course he has to give Xiaoyu a little face. Where did Xiaoyu know this, she only knew that she coaxed and persuaded Haji according to her own thoughts, and then put Haji on the ground.
Haji stood on the ground and shook his fur, stretching comfortably. Not to mention, the feeling of dogs being caressed and massaged is really good, at least Hadji, who has the body of a Labrador, does feel it. Haji even had a judgment that the first wolves were taken care of by humans with food and caresses, so that they were eventually put on a noose, and then became a vassal of humans?
Although Xiaoyu has never formally learned the training of working dogs, she still knows a rough idea. So she took out a small ball in a decent way, ready for Haji to start learning to familiarize herself with her password, and learn to use simple passwords such as "take", "come", and "go" according to the password. Although Xiaoyu knew that this should not be difficult for Haji, she could not get past it, because no one was sure that a puppy would be able to cooperate with humans and obey human commands.
"Haji, look at this little ball, remember it. Xiaoyu showed the ball to Haji, and in order to arouse Haji's interest, he threw the ball twice on the ground, making the ball strong and trying to attract Haji's attention. It's just that the current Haji looks dull and lacks interest, so Xiaoyu can't help but worry about it.
"Haji, look, I'll throw it out, you pick it up, okay! Look at it......" Xiaoyu said as she bounced the ball to the ground. She did this so that Haji could see the trajectory of the ball so that Haji could chase after it. This is a standard puppy guidance training method, starting from fun, gradually allowing the puppy to adapt to the cooperation with humans and become familiar with human passwords.
"Haji, go! Come back, ......" Xiaoyu pushed Haji, who was sitting on the ground, from behind, and gestured with her right hand pointing forward, she wanted Haji to chase after her and take the ball back. But Haji disappointed it, and Haji looked at the ball that rolled to the side of the road, and then looked up at the light rain, but it didn't move.
Xiaoyu was disappointed, she felt that Haji had always been very smart, as if she could understand everything she said. But now it seems that Haji just has a pair of eyes that look smart. Essentially...... Doesn't Haji be a good man? Isn't it the smartest and most powerful mastiff among the nine dogs and one mastiff?
"It's over, silly dog!" Lao Zhang saw this scene not far away, and couldn't help but say a word.
As soon as he said this, Haji suddenly turned his head towards him, and then stared at him with a vicious look. Although Haji was just a puppy for a month, when he suddenly stared at Lao Zhang with this kind of eyes, Lao Zhang still felt a little hairy feeling, which made him can't help but take two steps back.
"Don't talk!" Although Dacheng was also a little disappointed with Haji's performance, he still reminded Lao Zhang not to talk nonsense. When training a dog, it is most taboo to disturb the dog's training if someone next to him makes small movements, which will distract the dog's attention.
