Teddy, Bomi, Bixiong... It has become a popular breed of pet dogs in recent years, and jingba dogs are becoming more and more rare. In the 90s, it was also very popular!
Cher looks exactly like it
In the mid-to-late '90s, my dad didn't know who he wanted a jingba from. Because it was snow-white and did not have a single stray hair, we named it "Cher".
At that time, in small cities, living in buildings was not yet widespread, and my family still lived in bungalows at the northern end of the city. There is a yard at home, and Cher is with Bailey (note: it is my housekeeper dog, who wrote a Bailey article before). The difference is that Cher is free-range and Bailey is tethered.
Maybe my dad wanted to catch up with the fashion and specially raised the whole pet dog. The first time we have a pet dog, we don't have any special preferential treatment for it, but give it more freedom, it can walk around the house and outside the house, pull urine freely, and sometimes take it for a walk in the park.

Bailey was both interested in and hated Cher. For Cher's arrival, Bailey showed great interest, pulling the rope and trying to get close to Cher, and Cher was like a little fool, swinging to Bailey's basin, wanting to eat Bailey's rations, and was frightened by Bailey.
Cher is not a provocateur, even if she has been yelled at by Bailey, she has nothing to fear. Once, when he walked over to Bailey, who was eating, and wanted a piece of the pie, Bailey let out a low whimpering sound, and his nose began to wrinkle. As if she didn't know, Cher continued on her adventure. Bailey finally didn't hold back and bit into Cher's face.
From then on, Cher never dared to approach Bailey in her eating. Bailey's bite was not heavy, but Cher's eyes were still congested and infected. We gave it an eye drop for a week to cure it.
Although Cher is beautiful, she is not clingy at all, looks like a pet dog, but has the temperament of a housekeeper. Our sisters all like its appearance, always love to hold it and kiss it, it is not bothered, but we do not feel much enjoyment. In this way, it and our relationship is lukewarm.
Cher may have spent too much time with Bailey and learned the fierce side of Bailey, but it only learned one side, and did not learn the essence of Bailey as a dog.
Bailey is conscientious and the caretaker is definitely a good hand. Strangers seeing it struggling to protect its home, it is not an exaggeration to say that it can frighten the guts. But to the family, Bailey is a warm look, lifting the front foot, resting on your shoulder, sticking out his tongue to lick your face, long willing to loosen his feet; seeing the family come back from a distance, swinging his thick tail in a circle, anxious; he always likes to lie on the ground and play with you, waiting for you to tickle it...

Cher also barked at Bailey when she saw strangers coming, but she was not strong enough, obviously a dog-dog (Bailey) posture. Why is it stupid? It was because it took it out of the house and it also called at strangers, once in the park, actually bit the child, causing my father to apologize and take other people's children to vaccinate, a good toss.
Cher is very aggressive and completely devoid of the concept of trusting others like pet dogs. From then on, we kept it as away from the crowds as possible.
Later, our family had a building to live in, so we took Xue'er to the building to live. Bailey remained in the old house to the north to continue tending to the nursing home.

At that time, there were very few people who owned pets, and no one knew about the second poop to train dogs, and Cher had no teacher. We later found out that when it wanted to defecate, it scratched the wall by the door, and as soon as it opened the door, it rushed downstairs, and then ran home by itself when it was finished.
Urinating is not enough, it can only be solved at home. Because no one walks it. For a new resident of a building who has been raising a watchdog, our knowledge of pet dogs is too limited in the context of a city with few pet dogs.
After Cher went upstairs, her temper grew stronger. Give it a bath, it hides in the corner and yells at us, it clenches its teeth, and if you forcibly hold it, it will pounce on you and bite you. But it was afraid of my dad, and my dad really beat it. Unfortunately, my dad rarely helped us carry it into the tub.

Many times, it was our sisters who put on thick gloves, used tactics, or forcibly carried it into the bathtub. The bathing process was also very unpleasant, and it pulled its face and looked loveless. When I washed it and put it on the ground and wiped it with a towel, it ran away with a cigarette and did not let anyone get close.
It also has a very strange feature, in the winter of the north, the building heating is very sufficient, wearing short sleeves indoors does not feel cold, but go out to put on two or three layers of clothes. When Cher saw us putting on our coats when we went out, she began to scream, and even approached us step by step, and I felt very scared, afraid that it would bite me.
At that time, as long as I changed clothes and went out, I was afraid of it appearing, and I didn't know how to be scared like this by a pet dog.
Cher has given birth to two litters of cubs. The first nest was given away by my dad. There was a small stray dog in the second litter, and my mother named it Stupid. Clumsy is not a purebred dog, does not look like Jingba," has yellow and black coat, ears that can't stand up, short and thick calves, and runs around the house.
Clumsy is not as high and cold as Cher, but it likes to be clingy. Unfortunately, I was not impressed with it, because I was already studying in a foreign country at that time. My dad left it because it was the cuteest, and he hoped it would be a companion for my mom.
My mom said that when she watched TV, it sat on my mom's lap and lay on her stomach, and when my mom ate melon seeds and peanuts, it followed suit, and the technology was very skilled.
Clumsy is a bit like this puppy
My mother had a hard time sending a few of our sisters out to study and work, and the meaning of having a dog was different, and I could see that my mother really liked it.
Cher didn't know what the circumstances were sent away, I only knew that it was sent to my aunt's house. I leashed it up when the watchdog called.
The last time I saw it, it was like years after I left my hometown. I saw it lying in front of the nest, its eyes were cold, and its coat was a little dirty. When I saw me, I didn't see the warmth and familiarity it had for me, just didn't bark.
To be honest, at that moment, I felt a little sad in my heart, my father died, and he left behind fewer and fewer things, pets, less and less. I have also had the experience of living together with Cher, although it is short, but for dogs, should not it be an eternal memory?

However, it is as if it does not know me, but it is as if we did not know me, has it forgotten our original home and the breath of our bodies? It is precisely because I know that its nature is cold, so there is no more thinking, let it go!
Stupid was later given to her colleague by my mom. Later, her colleague gave it to someone else, because it was stupid and in heat, and my mother's colleague felt that it was "improper" and always wanted to run outside, resulting in a feeling of disgust and dislike of it.
Nowadays, we have no experience in raising small dogs, nor have we corrected their roles, and we have raised thick branches and leaves, so we do not understand some of their habits and characteristics at all, and even have many misunderstandings. Just like people, generations live more delicately than generations, and the fate of dogs becomes better from generation to generation.
Thanks to my dad's pets, my childhood and life were enriching. Really, be kind to the small animals, they are relying on and trusting humans with all their strength, and hope that every small animal will be happy and happy in life!
