Chapter 4: The Contradiction between Haji and Xiao Zhang

These things may seem small, but they are something that the trainer has to do himself, and no one can replace them. After listening to Xiao Zhang's words, Captain Liu explained unhurriedly: "The trainer and the search and rescue dog are a cooperative relationship between comrades-in-arms, but this cooperative relationship needs to be gradually established on the basis of the trust that is slowly established. But how to build this kind of trust, isn't it gradually formed through the accumulation of daily bits and pieces, and through companionship and care?"

"Oh, I see!" Xiao Zhang reluctantly agreed. When he looked up and saw that Haji was looking at him, he couldn't help but make a grimace at Haji and unceremoniously despise Haji. The malice in that expression was very obvious, clearly meaning to look down on and resentfully Haji.

If this action is for a real dog, if you see it, you can see it, and the dog can't do anything to Xiao Zhang. But this action was done to Haji, and Haji was a guy in his previous life. So Haji not only understood this action, but also because of the unique self-esteem of human beings, Haji suddenly hated Xiao Zhang. For a long time after that, Haji and Xiao Zhang had quite a lot of contradictions, so much so that a lot of trouble happened.

Although he caused some trouble when he first arrived, Haji also settled in the search and rescue dog squadron. And his intelligence is widely known, although this understanding has an element of surprise and hilarity.

What touched Haji was that although he knew that Haji had the ability to escape from prison, Captain Liu did not make a fuss about the cage door of the kennel. He was very generous to Haji, and even brushed Haji's head and said to him: "Haji, I know you are very smart, and you open and close the cage door so fast, just like a person." But if you want to go out and play, you also have to follow some rules, after all, you are now a search and rescue dog. I don't want to treat you differently, but I have to remind you that every day when you want to go out after training, tell me, but it's forbidden to run out for no reason. If you always open the cage door and run out by yourself, and after a long time, people will have an opinion about you, and you will never be free again, you know?"

Haji understood, he was a person in his previous life, can he not understand this? Once or twice, Captain Liu can still tolerate him, and if he does this again many times, he will definitely ask for trouble. If Haji doesn't run around anymore, people will only say that Captain Liu is good at discipline and Haji is smart and obedient. If Haji continues to run around, sooner or later he will have a big lock on the cage door, and it will be troublesome to try to escape when he needs to run away in the future.

In order to be able to escape smoothly in the future, Haji decided to stay honest for a while. As for the matter of reconnoitering the external environment and choosing the time to escape, it can be carried out at any time, and it is not too late to ponder this matter when the time comes. Besides, in the future, Haji will have the opportunity to go out on a mission as a search and rescue dog, and at that time he will have a lot of opportunities to escape, so why rush at this time?

In this way, Haji stabilized in the search and rescue dog squadron and began to train like an ordinary search and rescue dog. Although Haji's comprehension and intelligence are incomparable to other dogs, Haji is now almost nine months old and already looks like a deputy dog, but his physical strength and strength are completely incomparable to any dog in the search and rescue dog squadron.

There's no way, don't look at Haji's food at Liu Xiaohui and Brother Wang's house, but his training volume can't be the same as that of the dogs of the search and rescue dog squadron. Professionalism is professionalism, and even if the dogs of the search and rescue dog squadron do not have to consciously run laps every day like Haji, they only run a few laps and walk a few times on those equipment, and the improvement of physical speed and strength is unimaginable.

What's more, those equipment have high requirements for dogs' physical strength and balance, and it doesn't seem to be much difficult to do it once in a while, but if you exercise regularly with these equipment, the training effect on body balance and agility will be very strong after a long time. Although Haji has done a lot of physical exercise, compared with the dogs of the search and rescue dog squadron, it feels like a competition between private sports enthusiasts and professional athletes, and the gap can be seen at a glance.

The most obvious is the current disparity in weight and fitness between Haji. In the eyes of others, Haji at this time is just a pampered big fat dog, don't look oily, slippery, fat and strong, but he has a pair of skins close to adult dogs, and his physical strength and explosiveness are completely incomparable with dogs of his age.

The world of dogs is about the strong, which is not different from the genes of their ancestors, the wolf family. Although Haji had a group of younger brothers when he was working at the dog base, these younger brothers behaved fairly docile to Haji when he first arrived at the search and rescue dog squadron, but when Haji arrived at the training ground, after several normal physical trainings, he was tired and panting, and the original little brothers' awe of Haji gradually disappeared.

Coupled with Haji's performance when he escaped from prison that day, many adult dogs of the search and rescue dog squadron also had some hostility and contempt for Haji. That is to say, the search and rescue dogs are intensively trained every day, although the dogs often hit their heads and faces, but there are not many opportunities for direct communication, let alone any chance of fighting, and Haji's safety is guaranteed. But when Haji was training, he heard the dogs barking with contempt more than once, which made him feel very unhappy.

Captain Liu was not surprised by Haji's question, which was all expected by him. Haji's biggest problem right now is not the intelligence and coordination, he feels that Haji has no problem at all in this regard, the biggest problem is in his physical speed and explosiveness. In addition, those content that specializes in practicing courage and balance can't be given to Haji, and the basic physical fitness can't be guaranteed, and forcing it can only make Haji injured.

So at the beginning, Haji's training was all for four- and five-month-old dogs, and it wasn't difficult at all. In fact, I want Haji to adapt to the environment of the training ground of the search and rescue dog squadron as soon as possible, quickly lose weight, and train his physical fitness.

Haji naturally understands Captain Liu's hard work, but using his nine-month-old body to practice the game that only a dog can practice for four or five months does make Haji, a software engineer in his previous life, quite embarrassed. But now that the situation is like this, Haji is helpless even if he is helpless. Haji could only withstand the ridicule and contemptuous gazes of the search and rescue dogs, clumsily carrying out the most basic training.

It's just that the dogs despise Haji, but the humans despise Haji. This person is none other than Xiao Zhang, Captain Liu's assistant. This guy seems to have a very bad feeling for Haji, as if Haji's presence has affected him, so when Captain Liu is away, he often talks about Haji's cool words on the side.

In fact, it is not surprising to think about it, Xiao Zhang, as Captain Liu's assistant, has been a firefighter for several years, but he has never been exposed to search and rescue dog training, so he doesn't know much about things here. Now his direct leadership is about to be transferred, and his future has not yet been determined. However, when the leader was leaving, he had to train such a fat and stupid dog as Haji, which undoubtedly gave him a lot of work and trouble, and it was no wonder that he was satisfied! He didn't dare to say anything in front of Captain Liu, but he was not angry in front of Haji, and it was still a regular thing to throw a few nonsense words. After going back and forth, he and Haji were pinpointed at Maimang.

Especially Captain Liu is usually very busy, and he often buses himself after guiding Haji's training, and most of the next training work is taken care of by Xiao Zhang. Xiao Zhang also saw Captain Liu's general intentions, and Captain Liu deliberately trained him in the direction of a search and rescue dog trainer! In Captain Liu's words, after a few years in the search and rescue dog squadron, he didn't even know how to train search and rescue dogs, so wouldn't it be a shame to talk about it after going out in the future?

Captain Liu's words made sense, but Xiao Zhang didn't agree with them. He has been working in the fire brigade for three years, and he doesn't know how many years to come! Is it too late to learn how to train search and rescue dogs at this time? Not to mention that he didn't like dogs from the beginning, so he didn't want to engage in search and rescue dog training. It's just that because of Captain Liu's face, he had to reluctantly do it. In this case, it is not so surprising that he was a little emotional and dissatisfied with Haji.

This is not Haji is passing the obstacle, as soon as his movements are a little slower, he is gossiping on the side: "Raising a body of fat, in addition to being useful in the soup pot, what else can you do?"

While talking, Xiao Zhang actually used the traction strap in his hand to shake Haji's ass lightly and heavily. Although it didn't hurt this time, it was simply an intolerable insult in Haji's human way of thinking! Haji immediately stopped, stood on the balance beam bridge and glared angrily at Xiao Zhang.

The other nearby trainers who were training with search and rescue dogs saw it, and shook their heads helplessly except for a wry smile. Xiao Zhang is Captain Liu's assistant, what can they say? For the sake of Captain Liu's face who is about to leave, they can't say anything! What's more, the Labrador Retriever is really a little too obsessed, so people have adopted an attitude of turning a blind eye to the contradictions between Haji and Xiao Zhang, and no one has come out to say a fair word for Haji.

As a result, Haji did not feel so good about the squadron of search and rescue dogs. But that's good, he's going to run away in the future anyway, so there's no psychological pressure.

"Look at what I'm doing, let's go!" Seeing Haji turn his head and stare at himself, and a little bit of a posture of baring his teeth at himself, Xiao Zhang's heart was also very empty. He was bitten by a dog when he was a child, so he never had a good impression of dogs. Therefore, even when he arrived in the fire squadron, he was not engaged in search and rescue dog training. However, facing Haji in front of him, although his heart was still a little weak, Xiao Zhang still raised the leash in his hand and made a move to hit Haji.
