Chapter 180: The Underestimated Frontier Shepherd

Lao Li Tou and Lao Wu Tou can be regarded as old brothers.

Because the two families live very closely, they are of the same age, and they are both from the mainland, and their grandchildren are in the same class in the same kindergarten, the two old men quickly became good buddies after meeting in the community.

Of course, the interaction between the elderly is different from the style of the young people.

At Lao Li's age, they prefer to speak straight.

As soon as he went out, Lao Li Tou began to count down Lao Wutou.

"I said Lao Wu, didn't you say that you wanted to raise a dog with me?

Lao Wu smiled awkwardly: "Lao Li, I think this dog is still a little too expensive!"

This was actually expected by Lao Li Tou.

As an old brother, he has long been clear about Lao Wutou's character.

"I said, Lao Wu, your son is so able to make money, and you yourself have a retirement salary, is more than 2,000 yuan really a lot for you? You are not going to bring your money into the loess, right?"

He continued to count the old Wu's head.

When the old people are together, they actually like to compare very much.

The two old men often get together and have long understood each other's situation.

He knew that Lao Wutou's economic situation was actually not bad.

Not to mention his own retirement salary of more than 2,000 a month every month, the income of his son and daughter-in-law is even higher, adding up to at least 300,000 or 400,000 yuan a year.

With his family's conditions, spending more than 2,000 yuan to buy a dog is not a problem at all.

Lao Wu Tou said: "You don't know, the cost of living in big cities is so high now, if I don't save some money, what if something happens in the family? Besides, today's children pay attention to going to famous schools, a good primary school, the annual tuition fee is at least 30,000 or 40,000 yuan, not to mention middle school and college, I still have to save some money for my grandson to go to school!"

Lao Li Tou was so angry that he didn't want to speak again.

In terms of consumption concepts, the two brothers have differences.

In Lao Litou's view, old people like him and Lao Wu who came to the big city from the mainland said that they followed their sons to enjoy happiness, but in fact they left their hometowns to sell coolies.

Three meals a day are waiting for the juniors, not to mention, they also have to clean the house and take their grandchildren to school...... It's not easy.

The most important thing is that after the son and daughter-in-law go to work during the day and the grandchildren go to school, the elderly who are alone at home are actually very lonely.

Like him, if he hadn't met Lao Wu Tou, if he could usually get together and chat, he would have been unable to live this day.

Therefore, he desperately wanted to get a dog so that he could keep him company.

He also figured it out, he was at this age, and if he didn't treat himself better, it would be too late to regret it.

Fortunately, his son and daughter-in-law were quite filial, and as soon as he proposed the idea of raising a dog, they immediately expressed their support, and also said that they would pay for the dog.

Lao Li Tou accepted it with peace of mind.

In his opinion, if his son and daughter-in-law hire a nanny, not to mention food and accommodation, they will have to pay a salary of three or four thousand yuan a month.

He doesn't take a penny for selling coolies here, so it's not too much to ask them for a dog.

Thinking about it like this, he felt worthless for Old Wu.

However, he also understands that everyone has their own ideas, everyone has their own way of living, and he can't force Lao Wu.

When my puppy comes back, I'll envy him to death!

Lao Li Tou thought so and gave up the idea of continuing to do Lao Wu Tou's ideological work.

And on the side of Mi Li, it seems that he was forced to Liangshan by Lao Litou, and it seems that it has become imperative to enter the border herding puppies.

But the rice grains are still a little bottomless.

She didn't want her puppies to be unsalable.

She felt that it was better to consult Mo Chengxian about this matter.

"Daxian, you said that Bian Mu is so smart, why don't you raise so many people?"

Yang Mu actually had an answer to this question for a long time.

After all, he himself is a border herd.

Indeed, in the entire pet world, in terms of the intelligence ranking of dogs, Bian Shepherd is indeed the undisputed first.

Its cleverness manifests itself in several ways.

One is the ability to learn.

Whether it is learning instructions or learning movements, border herding is much faster than other breeds of dogs.

There are a lot of movements, and it has to be learned a few times, and it will soon be able to master.

The second is to understand human language.

In general, most dogs can only understand the relatively short language of humans, and this is after a long period of learning.

But Bian Mu is different, even if it is a more complex human language, it only needs a few times to learn it a few times, and it can quickly grasp the meaning.

Regarding this, many people have commented that the IQ of Bian Mu is equivalent to that of a 6-9-year-old child, which is actually very reasonable.

The third is its concentration.

In human-dog interaction, many dogs play with people for about ten minutes and are unable to concentrate.

But Bian Mu is different, it can play with you for an hour or two, and you can be just as focused.

It stands to reason that there are indeed many people who raise such a smart dog.

But border herding also has its drawbacks.

It's too active, too active, and always energetic.

In terms of energy, huskies are no worse than border herders, but there is a difference between the two in terms of energy.

For a husky, if its abundant energy is not vented through outdoor sports, as a cold dog, it may focus on biting toys, tearing up the house, etc., or be depressed alone.

But border herding is different, especially before the age of two.

If a young frontier herd's energy is not fully vented, it may become pestering its master to make trouble.

With its intelligence, it can do a lot of things, and it's good to pester you and not let you go, tearing your house, biting your pants, and yelling at you, which is still friendly.

A dog friend who has raised a border herd said that a young border herd whose energy cannot be vented is purely an ADHD child with a dozen chicken blood, and he can do it in a few minutes, and it can use all his IQ on anti-human.

Therefore, the border herd is a dog that needs someone to play with it, and it is best to have a yard for it to play wild when it cannot play with it often.

In other words, the office workers in the community who live in bungalows are actually not very suitable for raising border herding.

There is also a very important reason why border herding is not so popular, that is, it suffers from appearance.

For people who don't really understand dogs, they choose to have a dog that is very important, and that is to look at the appearance.

Most people know that from the point of view of appearance, the golden retriever is warm, Erha is handsome, Lala is stupid, VIP cute, Samoyed sweet......

Only the border herd, black and white, looks like a three-flower face, far less pleasing than other dogs.

Only those who have ever had a border herding know that when you have a border herding, you will never want to have another dog again.

It can be said that this is a good dog that is underrated because of its appearance.

What Yang Mu has to consider now is whether the Black Rice Pet Home should enter the border herd?

As a person who has raised a border herd, his answer is without hesitation, that is, he must enter!

Moreover, he also came up with a new idea.

Not only must you enter, but you also have to change the way you sell, and you must sell the technical content!
