Tibetan Mastiff Notes

Chapter 21 Fighting the Wolves (11)
In terms of quantity and quality, the herdsmen chose "rather lack than excess".This statement is a bit like the selection of high-ranking employees in large companies. Although herdsmen are not big entrepreneurs or shrewd businessmen, they know how to maintain the nature of a species in their long-term grassland life.Whether it is a mastiff, a wolf, or a rabbit or a mouse, all of these require a process of evolution, continuous optimization, removing the rough and saving the fine, so that all species can adapt to this complex living environment day by day.Animals are like this, and humans who claim to be advanced intelligent creatures should understand this truth even more, and use it in their own development and evolution, self-control, self-restraint, self-elimination, self-evolution... Gesang took a deep breath , shouted happily: "Hey, finally gave birth to another one!"

I woke up suddenly, and hurried to see, Dahei finally gave birth to the last mastiff puppy successfully, it was a female, like the first mastiff puppy, it was black all over, with four yellow paws, fleshy Yes, so naive, I couldn't help but want to hug her.Uncle Duoji stopped me at the right time and said: "It's not enough now, just after giving birth, Dahei will protect the cub, so let's see it like this, and I will give you a hug in two days."

Gesang excitedly tugged at my sleeves and hopped around, urging his father and me to name the four little mastiffs.Uncle Duoji smiled and said, "Let Xiao Bing take it. Xiao Bing is more educated than us old herdsmen."

I am ashamed of Uncle Dorje's words.That's right, I have studied. I failed the Tsinghua University exam by only two points. Later, I went to serve as a soldier. I received special training and joined the peacekeeping force. I have a lot of culture and knowledge, but I always I feel that my knowledge is so poor in front of Uncle Duoji.I blushed and insisted that Uncle Duoji choose a name, but Gesang gave me a push and said, "Abba asked you to choose a name! Quickly, quickly, the names chosen by the Han people must be very nice, just take it as my name." It’s a souvenir for Dahei, when you leave, we will remember you when we read these names!” I said, “Okay, let me think about it.”

Mastiff is a noble animal, I will give these four little mastiffs the four most noble names.I racked my brains to think and think, and suddenly my mind lit up, and I said: "Look, these four names are good, the eldest is called Prince, the second is called Prince, the third is called Princess, and the fourth is Gege, haha... "

Gesang was very happy, pointed at Dahei and said, "Then Dahei is the queen!" I corrected Gesang's mistake and said, "It's not the queen, it's the queen, the queen of the mastiff clan, and the king of the prairie!"

Uncle Duoji laughed, seeing that I liked the four little mastiffs so much, he was also very happy.Dahei completed his mission, let out a long breath, lay down peacefully, and accepted our comfort.I know that once a bitch gives birth to puppies, she will not tolerate others putting her hand into its kennel. Even if her owner does that, the bitch will show some restlessness and impatience, but the mastiff will not.Mastiff is confident and self-respecting, and trusts his master unreservedly. Although I am not the master of Dahei, Dahei and I have also established a relationship beyond the friendship between master and servant after we have passed the test of life and death together .

Dahei tolerated me touching her head, but he was worried about his four little babies, so he protected her with his paws worriedly.Uncle Duoji brought a bowl of mixed food, put it next to Dahei's head, and said to me with a smile: "Let Dahei stay by himself for a while, she also needs to rest, let's not disturb her for now."

Although both Gesang and I couldn't hold back the joy in our hearts, and wanted to look at the little mastiffs more, but in the end we held back. I was so happy that I didn't know what to do, and walked back and forth inside and outside the house. .Suddenly, I found that the female wolf stood up from the den and took two tentative steps towards the door of the house. After seeing that we had no response, she boldly took a small step forward and stretched her legs. Neck, observe the movement in the room.

My heart suddenly became tense, for fear that the female wolf would cause any accidental harm to the four little mastiffs.The she-wolf didn't notice my nervousness, and she wanted to get closer to the house to see it more clearly.I picked up a stick and frightened it.When the female wolf saw that I wanted to get mad, she was startled, with her tail between her legs, dragging her seriously injured body, and then slowly walked back to her den, lay down mournfully, and hugged the four hungry little ones with her mouth. The wolf cub looked at me with pitiful eyes.

My heart softened all of a sudden, and I threw away the stick in my hand. Although I knew clearly that a wolf is an unfamiliar animal and that its ferocity is born, I saw the pitiful and mournful expression of the female wolf. Looking at me with aggrieved and helpless eyes, my heart suddenly became heavy.

When Dahei was injured, there was still someone to take care of him, but what about the she-wolf?If it hadn't crashed into Uncle Duoji's yard by accident, it would have died in the wilderness long ago.As a wolf, I hate him, but as a mother, I respect him.Putting aside the title of wolf, just as a mother who survived the crisis, this female wolf is great. She suffered such serious injuries, but she still chose to survive with difficulty for the sake of the child in her belly. In hunger, it always tries to make its children more full.

I guess: this female wolf is tentatively trying to enter the house, maybe there is some intention, as a mother, she may also know that Dahei has given birth to a cub, and once Dahei gives birth to a cub, there will be enough milk, I don’t know Can the little mastiff finish eating?Maybe my own baby can share a little too?
Seeing that I dropped the stick in my hand, the female wolf tentatively stood up from the nest, but she was afraid of my majesty and dared not go forward, looking angry and pitiful.Before I made a mistake, I decided that I couldn't pity the wolf, so I walked back to the house resolutely.Everyone was excited that Dahei gave birth smoothly, so no one paid any attention to the she-wolf. The poor she-wolf kept walking up and down the door of the den, pacing restlessly until dark.

After we had dinner, we gathered around Dahei's nest with great interest, watching the four little mastiffs crawling around. With four short legs, it scrambles around under Dahei's belly, competing for teats with its younger siblings.Good guy, the prince’s strength is really not small. It brutally occupied four nipples, biting one in its mouth, pressing two under its body, and pinned down the nipple that Gege had just squeezed to its mouth with its paws. .

Gege was born the latest and the smallest among the four little mastiffs. He couldn't compete with his older brothers and sisters. When he got angry, he had nowhere to vent. He was so wronged that he gave up eating and crawled to the other side of the red carpet On the ground, he was humming and chirping, playing the young lady's temper.Dahei lovingly pulled Gegebo under his belly with his paws, and then pushed the prince aside with his mouth, Gege finally grabbed a nipple with plenty of milk, and sucked it up.

The prince was overturned by Dahei, and rolled down from Dahei's belly with a murmur. The position is attacked.Although Dahei protected Gege, the princess's little head was firmly held down by the prince.The prince snatched a teat, opened his small toothless mouth, and bit it hard.Soon, the nipple in the prince's mouth was also occupied by the prince. The prince sucked on one side and sucked on the other, very proud of it.The prince was not as easy to bully as the two younger sisters. It took the initiative to provoke the prince, and the two little mastiffs, whose eyes were not open, dragged their four legs and wrestled together.

I watched with great interest, watching the four little guys making a fuss, with a sense of happiness in my heart overflowing on my face.Looking at the four cute little guys, and imagining that one day, I will be a father, the corner of my mouth is full of smiles, what a happy thing it is!I was so happy, lying on the ground with my ass pouted, watching the four little guys fighting while breastfeeding. The little mastiff was born with a sense of territory and a desire to fight. I thought it was amazing, and it was late at night before I knew it.

Uncle Dorji was getting old, so he went to bed early. Gesang couldn't stand the sleepiness later, so he fell asleep on the carpet. Only I still opened my eyes like copper bells, looking at the four lovely brat.The little guys are already full, and they are sleeping under the big black belly. Looking at their fleshy appearance, they are so tender and soft, without any defense, my hard heart is also being softened bit by bit .

I suddenly thought of the four wolf cubs born to the female wolf. The four cubs were only born one day earlier than the four cubs, and they were born prematurely. They were very weak and did not have enough milk to eat.They are also little babies who should be cared for by their mothers, but the treatment they receive is one heaven and one hell.Love knows no boundaries, and newborn wolf cubs are also defenseless.The female wolf may also be thinking: Why should her baby be frozen and hungry like this?

The female wolf must be feeling guilty for not being able to feed her pups. It was already late at night, but the female wolf was still looking into the house with her eyes wide open. She tried to walk to the door again and again and saw me Staring at it, he backed away again and again, humming twice in his mouth, feeling very wronged, as if he was about to cry.

I don't know what to do, bring the little wolf cub in and feed it to Dahei?Big Black Ken?The little mastiff grows fast, and the growth of the four little mastiffs needs enough nutrition, maybe her own milk is not enough, but if Dahei refuses to feed them, then the four little wolf cubs will definitely not live for a few days.

The door was ajar, but I thought of these things, so I opened the door and looked at the movement of the female wolf again.The female wolf seemed to have made up her mind, she went back to her den, and lovingly licked her four cubs over and over again.I don't understand what the she-wolf wants to do, but my intuition tells me that the she-wolf has made up her mind to say goodbye to her cubs. I have some sympathy for the she-wolf, but there is no other way.

Now Dahei is not as good as before. She just gave birth to a little mastiff, and she is very repulsed by strange smells. If I rashly take the little wolf cub into Dahei's den, it is very likely that Dahei will bite him to death. life, isn’t that the same as doing sin?I closed the door, decided not to think about these things, and had a good night's sleep. I added two pieces of dry sheep dung to the stove, and moved the stove to Dahei's side.

As soon as I fell asleep, I was awakened by the movement outside the door. Although the sound was very faint, I woke up from my dream and hurriedly opened the door to look.

[-]. Broken distress radio signal

It was still dark, and it was gray outside the house, only a thin layer of light reflected from the snow on the ground.

I was surprised to find that four thin wolf cubs were lying on the snow outside the house door and howling. They were caught by the door by the mother wolf at some point, and their bellies were exposed in the cold air. It was purple from the cold, the she wolf was not in the den, and there was a line of paw prints on the snow.I hurried out to see, the female wolf had just left not long ago, dragging her seriously injured body, so she was not walking fast, I saw a black shadow moving in the distance in front of me, limping, walking with difficulty , while constantly looking back and looking this way, such a scene, it is easy to remind people of the word "life and death".

I knew that the black shadow was that poor female wolf. Although the Duoji family saved her life, they couldn't save her child.In the face of the ruthless nature, the female wolf has no choice but to leave her child behind and find her own group by herself.If its children are lucky and survive, it is possible that it will return with its own pack to find them.

There's no way, I can't watch the four two-day-old pups freeze to death outside. I hold the four pups in my arms to keep them warm.The four little ones clearly smelled differently than their mother and struggled to get out of my control.

Seeing the prince and the prince sleeping happily in Dahei's arms, the prince was still biting a nipple in his mouth when he fell asleep, even in his sleep, he would smack his little mouth from time to time, I felt even more pitiful. Here come the four little wolf cubs.

The elderly woke up early, and Uncle Duoji was awakened by the movement in the courtyard.He put on his clothes and got up to look. He saw the empty wolf den and the four little wolf cubs in my arms. He sighed, lit a bag of dry cigarettes, and stood at the door to smoke without going into the house.

I asked Uncle Dorji, "What should I do? The mother wolf left, leaving behind four little wolf cubs."

Uncle Dorji took a deep breath, sighed, and said: "The female wolf also knows that she can't support four children. After all, this is not a place for her to stay, so she will go to find her group, little wolf." Whether the cub is dead or alive, it can only be resigned to fate."

I touched the cold bodies of the little wolf cubs, and two of them were terribly frozen, and their stomachs were also flat. There was no food in them, clear water flowed from their nostrils, and their four thin little paws twitched like cramps.Uncle Duoji bit his pipe, took the four little wolf cubs from my arms, walked into the house, and said, "Give Dahei a try, and see if she is willing to raise... oh, poor..."

Dahei had already heard the movement outside the house. She had been watching us with half-closed eyes, and now she saw Uncle Duoji walking over with four gray things in her hands, and instinctively twisted her body.These four little guys are far worse than my four beautiful babies. They are thin and small, like four gray mice, shrinking and shrinking, and they can't get on the stage at all.Now that Dahei has her own child, she is a bit repulsive to foreign aliens, but as a new mother who has just become a mother, Dahei is still full of love and sympathy for these four poor little creatures. Bow your four little babies, and leave a place for the four poor little wolf cubs.

Uncle Dorji gently put the four little wolf cubs under Dahei's belly.The little wolf cub struggled a bit at first and wanted to run away, but then he found the nipple, and once sucked the sweet milk, he refused to let go, pressed his little paws hard on Dahei's belly, and sucked hard with.Dahei smelled the smell of the four little wolf cubs again, and was a bit repelled. She poked the four little wolf cubs with her mouth, trying to push them away, but felt that the little ones were very pitiful, so she poked them for a while, and then used The paws hugged them into his arms, and after hugging them for a while, they wanted to arch out with their mouths again.I thought: Dahei must be very hesitant now. She wants to feed these four poor little guys, but she is afraid that her own children will suffer if they don’t get milk. The little wolf cub is really embarrassing for the young mother.

The four little wolf cubs are desperately grabbing the teats, feeling as if they will never eat again if they are not full now, as if the day after they are full will be the end of the world, they are desperately sucking and grabbing , awakened the other four little mastiffs.

It was the prince who was awakened first.The prince smelled the strange smell in the den, and he could never tolerate four little wolf cubs crawling into his field. He squeezed desperately under the big black belly, strode hard on the big black belly with four thick legs Crawled, and then used its paws to push down the small heads of the four little wolf cubs, forcing them to spit out the teats in their mouths.

The prince woke up too, and it joined the prince's team after fighting with the prince during the day. The two brothers worked together to expel the four little wolf cubs to the open space on the other side of the red carpet, and then the two little ones began to divide themselves. Even if the nipple is not eaten, it must be bitten in the mouth.

The princess was very domineering, and still rushed into the group of four wolf cubs, wrestled with four thin wolf cubs, and squeezed the wolf cubs out with her chubby body, and two of the thinner wolf cubs actually I was squeezed out of the red carpet and rolled onto the cold ground.

Gege is very delicate and lazy, and falls asleep when she is full. When she is woken up, she opens her chubby mouth, yawns, lies under her mother's front legs, and falls asleep again.

I felt sorry for the four little guys who lost their mothers. Uncle Duoji also sighed, picked up the four little guys, and put them far behind the big black buttocks, letting them warm up with big black body.It's a pity that the four wolf cubs have been hungry for two days. Although they have also eaten some milk now, because the mother wolf threw them into the snow at the door, they were frozen outside for too long. By dawn, he died.Another one was held down by the prince and the prince at dawn, and then died for some reason.

Of the four little wolf cubs, only one was slightly stronger. It was lucky to get under the tail of the big black, and was not found by the prince and the prince, and saved its life.In the future, when the wolf cub is hungry again, we have to move the four little mastiffs away first. After the wolf cub is full, we must take it away immediately and put it in another small den made for it, so that it can be eaten. It is by itself.Because, even if the big black does not bite it, the four little mastiffs will work together to bully it to death.

In this way, after persisting for a few days, the life of the last little wolf cub was finally saved, because it was fed the milk of the mastiff, so its physique became longer and stronger, and its coat color became longer and brighter.

It hasn’t snowed in the past few days. The first snow on the ground has been blown hard by the wind, and the snow in the yard has also been trampled hard. When it freezes in the middle of the night, it turns into lumps of ice, making it slippery to walk on. , My balance is not bad, and I have been steady, but Gesang fell several buttocks firmly.I know that Uncle Duoji has old arms and legs. I'm afraid that if he accidentally falls and breaks it, it will be difficult. Even if he goes to the hospital, he can't find a car to go to the city.
