Chapter 299: Rules
Yang Mu pretended not to care, and slowly walked towards the black panther.
This immediately alarmed the panther again.
Unlike when a person approaches it, it barks and wants to pounce, but when it sees a dog, it grins and warns first.
It does have a strong sense of territory and is very unfriendly to other dogs.
Yang Mu was not too anxious.
He unleashed his coercion and walked forward very slowly, almost one step at a time.
This made the panther even angrier.
It rushed up again, wanting to pounce and bite Yang Mu, but unfortunately its neck was tightly strangled by the iron chain.
Yang Mu stopped.
For this vicious dog with a violent personality, the first thing to grind is its patience.
So he stood there coldly, watching the panther struggle in vain until it stopped again.
His actions puzzled Tu Xiujie very much.
He asked, "Why did the old black do this?"
It was Li Bo who came forward to explain.
"There's a reason for that. ”
"Dogs are close relatives of wolves, and Tibetan mastiffs are even more wolf-like, so they obey the social rules of wolves in a sense. ”
"The wolf is a social animal, and in their world, there is a strict social hierarchy, and the strong are respected, and the social status is not the same in the wolf pack. ”
This is a principled explanation of the social order of the dog world.
Tu Xiujie was still puzzled: "What is Lao Hei's current behavior ......?"
"It is now invading the Panther's territory and wants to prove to the Panther that it is the strongest, that it has a higher social rank than the Panther. ”
"But the panther doesn't look convinced!"
"If you don't accept it, you'll fight! You know why Mi Li made you prepare for the panther to be seriously injured, right?"
After listening to Li Bo's explanation, Tu Xiujie seemed to understand something.
He asked, "I saw on the Internet, aren't many experts saying that it is not recommended to use too severe punishment measures for dogs, and that dogs should not be beaten?"
Li Bo smiled.
Obviously, he doesn't fully agree with this view.
He said first: "Do you know? In the wolf pack, the wolf king is all beaten, and sometimes he even beats you to death." Therefore, in the world of dogs, if you want to divide the ranks, you have to do the same, unless the disparity in strength is too great, and before the fight starts, one party will admit it. ”
Tu Xiujie nodded.
He felt that this seemed to make sense.
Li Bo changed his words.
"And we humans train dogs, and the reason why we don't use dog beating as a regular means is because we have a better training method than fighting. But for some dogs with a stubborn temperament and explosive temperament, beating is also a necessary means, and all ways are not absolute. ”
"Like your black panther, if you don't use force, give it a little necessary punishment, and establish authority in front of it, it is estimated that few dog trainers will be able to tame it. ”
Next is the main point.
"My next words may be a bit off-the-beaten. ”
"Generally speaking, if there is a problem with the dog, the problem is not with the dog in the first place, but with the owner of the dog. ”
"For example, the reason why your black panther likes to bite people and doesn't even listen to you is that you haven't taught it well, you haven't developed good habits since you were a child, and you're used to its bad habits. ”
Li Bo said it very directly.
In his opinion, if a dog hurts people many times, it is an unforgivable vice.
But dogs don't know the rules of the human world, and if a dog has such a problem, then the problem can only be attributed to the dog owner.
So he said it without any politeness.
This is very embarrassing for Tu Xiujie.
But he was still relatively modest, and immediately admitted very shamefully: "Yes, yes, yes, I really don't know how to raise a dog correctly, which is why there is such a problem." ”
He then asked, "Mr. Li, what should you pay attention to when raising a dog?"
He is indeed more modest, not only calling the young Mi Li a teacher, but now he wants to ask Li Bo for advice, and he also uses the title of teacher.
That's a good attitude.
Therefore, Li Bo replied: "Rules! The important thing is the word rules." ”
He then patiently explained.
"As I said earlier, in the world of wolves, there is a strict hierarchy, and the strong are respected, and the same is true for dogs. In a hierarchical society, there are many rules. ”
"In the process of getting along with dogs, if you want the dog to listen to you, then the owner must first establish his authority in front of the dog and become its leader. And the way to become a leader of a dog is to set rules for it from an early age, so that it knows what is available and what is not. ”
Tu Xiujie seemed to have an understanding.
He hurriedly asked, "So, beating is actually a way to train dogs?"
"Yes, in principle, any way that helps the dog establish the right rules is the way to do it. This is like dealing with those naughty bear children, who may simply reason with him, he will not listen, and beating him up at this time is also a way to make him remember. ”
"However, this way of dog training may lead to the disgust of some so-called 'dog lovers', so it should be used with caution. Even if you want to use it, you must have the right time. ”
Lee Bo mentions the term 'dog lover' here.
At some point, 'dog lover' became a derogatory term.
This may be related to the excesses of some 'dog lovers'.
For example, the golden retriever injury incident in Changsha.
A golden retriever was chained to the street, injuring several people, and as a last resort, the golden retriever was shot and killed by the auxiliary police on the street.
After that, some 'dog lovers' directly ignored the fact that the golden retriever bit people, and instead condemned the auxiliary police who killed the golden retriever, and even fleshed him on the Internet, which caused a lot of trouble to the auxiliary policeman's life.
Li Bo disagrees with this.
In his opinion, perhaps the auxiliary policeman's methods of dealing with the golden retriever were a little cruel and inappropriate, but what must not be ignored was the fact that the golden retriever injured several people in a row.
In the case that the owner of the dog cannot be found, in order to avoid more injuries, perhaps the auxiliary police resort to the last resort under the circumstances.
Li Bo is a canine sports practitioner and will probably deal with dogs for the rest of his life.
It stands to reason that he should be considered a true dog lover.
But he understands a truth, that is, this world is respected by human beings, and human beings are the builders of order.
If dogs want to live peacefully with people, they must first accept the rules of the human world.
In short, it's human-oriented, not dog-oriented.
Therefore, he feels that it is important for true dog lovers to take good care of their dogs and do their best for the legitimate survival of dogs, rather than using various extreme means to interfere with the words and deeds of others.
What he said just now, he can be regarded as feeling.
Next, he turned his attention to Lao Hei.
He couldn't help but sigh: Lao Hei is so smart!
He actually knew the patience to grind a vicious dog.
