Chapter 9: This trick is too bad!
If Haji's defeat can make Haji cautious and at the same time resolve Lao Zhou's resentment to a certain extent, that would also be a good thing. After that, he can also talk to Lao Zhou to make his mentality correct and normal, which is what is beneficial to the search and rescue dog squadron.
With this idea, Captain Liu did not have any objections to Lao Zhou's plan. He nodded and said, "Yes, I don't have an opinion, I just don't know what Haji's attitude is." ”
Lao Zhou was not surprised that Captain Liu could agree to his suggestion, it was just a joke, who would care too much about the result? It's just that Captain Liu asked him to ask Haji about this matter is a little strange, when will it be a dog's turn to make the final decision.
But it didn't matter, Lao Zhou asked Haji half-jokingly: "Haji, what do you think?
"Wang!" Haji naturally guessed what Lao Zhou was thinking, he wanted to make himself suffer a loss, but he didn't want to lose Captain Liu's face too much. But so what? With one's own human intelligence and judgment, how can one easily fall into the trap? Yes.
"That's a promise?" Lao Zhou replied for Haji with a smile, and then asked Captain Liu again: "Team Liu, let's start here?"
"You haven't said the last round yet, you're only two levels!" Captain Liu asked.
"Hehe, Team Liu, I think it's just a joke, we're almost done. If Haji can win both games, there will be no need to compare. If Haji can win a game, there will be no competition in the future, and everyone should watch a show. "Lao Zhou is indeed doing what Haji judges, he wants to make some trouble for Haji, but he doesn't want to offend Captain Liu too much.
"Okay, let's get started. Captain Liu nodded and agreed.
Lao Zhou looked around, took a clean short wooden stick from the training equipment on the side, and said to Captain Liu: "What do you think of this?
This short wooden stick is a tool for search and rescue dog training. Ask the search and rescue dog to recognize the smell of the stick, that is, the smell of the target, and then let the dog hide the stick somewhere in the target area, and finally let the search and rescue dog go to look for it. Of course, this search process can be taken by the handler, or the search and rescue dog can go by itself, and the difficulty is naturally greater than the latter.
Don't underestimate such a training subject, the difficulty of this subject is not small. The search and rescue dog is not a human being, so it is impossible to take the wooden stick in its hand and observe it carefully, what it needs is to remember the smell on it. The subsequent burial link is also done by someone, and the search and rescue dog needs to remember the two smells of the stick and the person at the same time, and then follow the two smells to track.
If the search and rescue dog can't remember the smell of the target, it can also smell the smell source in the hand of the trainer and consolidate the memory of the smell of the target halfway. In the case that the trainer does not participate in the guide, the search and rescue dog can only rely on its own memory to find the target olfactory source, and cannot repeatedly experience the taste of the olfactory source with the help of the trainer, so the difficulty of the search has risen a lot, and it can also reflect whether the memory ability and search and rescue ability of the search and rescue dog is strong or weak.
"Okay!" Captain Liu stretched out his hand to take the sniffing source, and then asked Lao Zhou, "How is it? Do I still have Haji with me?" or let it search for itself?"
"Let it search for itself! Or let Xiao Zhang take it, you've been busy for a long time, it's time to rest." Lao Zhou said to Captain Liu with a smile.
"You!" Captain Liu said to Lao Zhou with a wry smile, and then put the wooden stick to Haji and said, "Haji, sniff!"
Haji stuck his head over and sniffed carefully. The smell of sticks, the smell of human sweat, the smell of mess in the pantry, and a faint musty smell......
It's not good to be a search and rescue dog, because the sense of smell is more than a thousand times that of humans, and you can smell a lot of things with it. It's a good ability, but it also comes with a lot of troubles. For example, a smell that humans are not very sensitive to is already unbearable for dogs, and for example, smelling a bad smell for a long time will make dogs feel dizzy and nauseous. However, this thing is still the source of smell, and the dog needs to keep sniffing it, so that the search and rescue dog can't say it. Fortunately, the wooden stick used this time is specially used for training, so there is nothing strange about it.
"Are you alright?" Captain Liu asked Haji, who sat back and gestured that it was okay.
"Who is going to hide?" Team Liu asked the onlookers again.
"I'll go!" a trainer stepped forward, took the stick, and ran across the training ground into the distance.
After about three minutes, the trainer finally returned, but the wooden stick in his hand was gone. Haji noticed that when the trainer returned, in addition to saying hello to everyone, he also made a reassuring expression to Lao Zhou.
Oh, this trainer and Lao Zhou should have a good relationship, maybe this guy will cause some trouble for himself.
"Haji, go!" Captain Liu untied the leash around Haji's neck and then made a gesture order.
Haji walked up to the trainer first, sniffed the scent, and then unexpectedly let out a menacing growl. When he had done all this, Haji turned around and ran out on the way the trainer had just returned. Walking in the opposite direction of the road he had walked again, he could also trace the smell of the stick.
Xiao Zhang was about to catch up with Haji's footsteps, but Captain Liu stopped him and shook his head at him. Xiao Zhang was also happy to relax, so he didn't follow anymore. Captain Liu looked at Haji, who was running away, and then turned his head to look at the trainer and Lao Zhou who had just gone to hide the target, smiled slightly and didn't speak. The trainer was brought by Lao Zhou, and it is normal to be a little inclined to Lao Zhou, and this competition is not a very formal thing, so it is not bad to give Haji some difficulty.
Haji followed the trainer's scent through the training grounds, circled around a few more times, and plunged headlong into the grove on the outskirts of the training ground. Haji didn't have to look for the smell of the stick, he had to follow in the footsteps of the trainer. By the time he hid something, his scent would be more of a walk around, and Haji could quickly distinguish it.
Sure enough, after walking a short distance into the grove, the smell left by the trainer suddenly became stronger, and it was obvious that he had been standing there for a while. Haji immediately stopped, and began to search the area carefully for the smell of the stick.
How would ordinary people hide this stick? When they come, they must be suspicious, and they will hide it somewhere until the end. The handler naturally knew a lot about the search and rescue dogs, and would have caused trouble for Haji in this way. Especially this guy may have a good relationship with Lao Zhou, and there is a possibility that he deliberately caused trouble for Haji.
But Haji searched around the neighborhood and found no smell of the stick, which was not a problem with Haji's sense of smell or memory, but a sign that the trainer had not hidden the stick at all.
This is also possible. The handler was familiar with the search method of the search and rescue dogs, and deliberately followed the search path of the search and rescue dogs. It is also entirely possible to hide the sticks somewhere, and then deliberately set up suspicions in unrelated places in the woods, wasting Haji's energy. If Haji had searched for too long, and Haji had not had the source of the wooden stick by his side, Haji's memory of the wooden stick would not be so clear after a long time, and the probability of failure would be higher.
Hagi had no choice but to secretly remember the location and continue to follow the trainer's scent back the way he came. He needed to find and identify the few locations where the trainer's scent was blown away by the wind, and then slowly calm down and search. The other party deliberately wanted to make trouble for him, so he couldn't find the stick in a too conventional way.
Soon, Haji found three more places where the trainer had stayed, and in one of them the trainer had urinated, and the disgusting smell made Haji want to curse the street. Of course, if he wants to scold now, he can only make a dog bark, which has no practical effect at all, so Haji has no choice but to hold back his anger secretly.
Haji thought the trainer had done something wrong and threw the stick in his urine. So he had to endure the nausea and sniff for a while, but in the end, he reluctantly confirmed that the other party was just suspicious in this place, and did not hide the wooden stick near that location.
When I went back and searched the places where the instructors had stayed for a while, there was no smell of the sticks! What was going on? Could it be that the sticks had disappeared out of thin air? This was impossible!
Haji had no choice but to expand the search area, increasing the search area where the instructor had stayed, in order to find more smells and traces. This expanded search area, Haji really made some discoveries, the last two places did not have a little smell of the stick, only the first two places had a little smell. Haji could only tell that the trainer hadn't followed the rules and had just come here with him, and then vanished. Could it be that the trainer knew magic? Of course it couldn't, but he had disposed of it in a more clever way.
Since the sticks had appeared in the second location, Haji began to focus on the search for this place. He noticed that the smell of the stick had drifted away quite a bit in the wind, some of the scents were concentrated on the nearby bushes, and some of the smells were located in the vicinity of the trees that Haji needed to stand up to smell.
Why, what did the guy do with the sticks that high? Because the smell of this height must have been placed very high by the trainer, and then the smell drifted to the branches and leaves of the bushes, and then some of the smell was retained.
