I love small animals, chickens, ducks, cats, dogs. Dogs, in particular, are even more pampering to me. So far, a total of three small lives have been associated with me and have spent many happy times with me.
My first dog was a pure white Kyoba. That was more than twenty years ago. The little one had been in his arms for less than a month. Short limbs; round and rolling body; small and upturned tail; snow white fluffy hair, walking up and swinging left and right, like a rolling snowball, especially cute. So she had the name "Cher".
Xiao Xue'er was naughty, and did not look like a girl at all. Maybe it was the time of her teeth change, and everything in the family that she could get her mouth could have been tragically "burned" by her. Furniture, piers, slippers... None of them were spared. Xue'er's most brilliant achievement was once when there was no one at home, he knocked over a glass bottle containing six pounds of cooking oil that I had placed on the bench, and then crawled in the oil to make himself alive and let go of a Zhang Fei rebirth. By the time I got home from work, my home was already in a mess, and Cher was still having fun in the oil on the ground. Looking at her miserable appearance and the fearless look of not knowing that she has run into a catastrophe, it really makes you angry and annoyed. In addition to obediently cleaning the battlefield for her, only a bitter smile remained.
Gradually, Cher grew up. When she grew up, Xue'er came out of the sky and had a good look. The mischievous personality has also relented and become much more stable. When the girl is older, she has to find her in-laws. This is a big deal, and we must be careful. So in a thousand ways, a handsome guy who was also snow-white was caught by me. Meet, date, Xue'er and the little handsome guy actually fell in love at first sight, before they could see the heavens and the earth, a small couple could not wait to enter the cave room, leaving the "high hall" of our two sides behind and enjoying the joy of fish and water.
Two months later, the crystallization of their love came to life. Three little creatures announced their arrival with a thin cry. Don't look at Cher is a first-time mother, her motherhood is very strong. Feeding, licking, combing hair, Xiao Xue'er did a very good job without any teaching. The three little ones grew up quickly and in good health under their mother's care. But Cher was much more haggard. It is no wonder that from the pink meat dumplings at birth, to the first time she opened her eyes, to running around the ground, Cher has done her best and can be called a model mother. Watching Xue Er lose weight for her children, in addition to preparing more and better diets for her, I can't help but sigh at the greatness and selflessness of maternal love. Even a dog can interpret the holy mother's love so vividly!
After more than a month, the baby will leave its mother and start a new life of its own. This was a heart-wrenching blow to Cher. I still remember the scene when Cher went crazy looking for her child after the puppies were taken away. At that time, as a mother, I really didn't know how to comfort her, only to hold her tightly in my arms and comfort Cher's wounded heart with my caresses.
My Cher lived only three years and six months before leaving me. It was the terrible dog plague that took her life. Eight years ago, on the eve of the Qingming Festival, Xue'er swallowed her last breath in my arms. The nostalgic, helpless look in her dying eyes stung me deeply and remained in my memory forever, never to be forgotten again.
Dogs are only for a while for a person, but people are a lifetime for dogs. In retrospect, I also have irreparable guilt for Cher: because it was the first time to raise a dog, I didn't know much about it. If xue'er had been vaccinated earlier, the poor little guy would not have died of the plague! Although I tried everything I could to save her life after she fell ill, my Cher was defeated in the fight against death. It's too late to regret it!
I would like to say that before deciding to have a dog, you must think about your responsibilities, think about whether you have the ability, whether you have the patience to take care of him for a lifetime. If you can't give the dog enough love and can't be responsible for his life, no matter how much you like it, don't keep it. Life is not noble, and even the most humble life is worthy of respect and awe.
After Cher, I had two more dogs--- Gege and Pippi. I pinned my thoughts on Cher on these two equally cute little beings, and turned my guilt for Cher into more love for Gege and Pippi. I want to do everything I can to make them live a little happier, happier, and comfort my Cher, but also let my heart be calmer.
