Black Tiger (Loyal Dog Story)

■ Text/Wang Zhenhua

The black tiger is a beautiful puppy, black and shiny coat color, a healthy body, a tiger's head and a tiger's brain, and it is cute. The name is also worthy of the name, called "Black Tiger", which indeed has the courage and spirit of a small tiger.

The black tiger was given to a friend by someone else, and the friend felt that the dog was troublesome, and he couldn't bear to throw it away, so he sent it to my house. To tell the truth, I didn't like small animals before, and I was even more reluctant to serve them, but for the sake of face, I had to take them in.

It so happened that I rented a courtyard in the suburbs that year and did the building materials business, so I took the black tiger there, guarded the house, and did not waste my efforts to raise it.

The black tiger is full of spirit and dedication, night and day, as long as someone enters the hospital, it must be the first informant. When people come into the house, they will also follow up, keep a close eye on it, never slacken off, and always perform their duties conscientiously.

Black Tigers also have times when they get into trouble. The second brother is in the countryside and does not come often, and the black tiger is relatively unfamiliar. I was busy taking care of the business, so I signaled my second brother to come into the house. The second brother did not treat himself as an outsider, and opened the drawer to find a cigarette. The black tiger that followed up screamed at the second brother "Wang Wang". The second brother got angry and flew up a foot, and the black tiger swirled the dog's waist sharply, quickly dodged it, and then quickly counterattacked, jumped up, aimed at the second brother's calf, and bit it fiercely. In order to comfort the second brother, I beat up the black tiger. The black tiger's eyes were filled with tears of grievance, and he curled up in the corner of the room, and a whimpering cry came from his throat.

It cost hundreds of yuan to vaccinate the second brother, plus her wife herself hated dogs, so she carried me behind her back and sent the black tiger to a friend who liked dogs.

The door of the friend's house was open, and the wife led the black tiger inside. Unexpectedly, there was a big wolf dog lying in the yard, unchained, and saw his wife, like an arrow, swooping over. The wife was stunned, covered her eyes, and screamed. However, the wife felt that the wolfhound did not bite her, and fixed her eyes on it, and it turned out that the black tiger behind her stepped forward, jumped forward, and fought with the wolfhound. The black tiger simply hits the stone with a pebble, and the difference in body, where will be the opponent of the ferocious and huge wolf dog. The black tiger dodged left and right, and his body was still scarred by the wolfhound, but there was still no hint of timidity or retreat. The friend came out and stopped the fight.

The wife who had originally come to deliver the dog hurriedly bid farewell to her friend and returned home with the black tiger. The wife carefully cleaned, disinfected, medicated, and bandaged the black tiger's wounds.

Under the careful care of his wife, the black tiger recovered quickly, and his position in the family also increased day by day. My wife ordered me to build a new dog shed for the black tiger in the yard, so that I would no longer be able to stand guard and be free from the wind, rain and sun. Food is also often improved, and sausages and bones are no longer a luxury.

The loyalty of the black tiger often makes people who call themselves friends ashamed of themselves.
