Why would a dog dealer buy a dog that is more than ten years old? This problem is something that many people have encountered and find very confused!
In the countryside, almost every household will choose to raise a Chinese pastoral dog, maybe this is a heritage, maybe an ancient habit, but when you go to the countryside, we can see a dog that wags its tail to welcome you.
However, although there are many dogs in the countryside, there is one kind of dog that is very rare, that is, old dogs that are more than ten years old.
At this time, everyone was very confused, why would a dog that was more than ten years old be extremely rare in the countryside with so many years?
In fact, there is a little disadvantage in raising dogs in the countryside, that is, almost most of the rural dogs are mainly free-range, and after eating breakfast in the morning, they will slowly run out to play somewhere in the village until the owner calls it, or they will go home to rest after playing enough.
And this also limits the life of dogs to some extent, because in the countryside, dogs are prone to three accidents!
1. Dogs are prone to injury or even death when playing on the road.
Many rural dogs like to hang out on the road, sometimes in groups of three or five walking on the road, instead of before, it is fine, are bicycles slowly leisurely, but in a few years, cars from the previous luxury goods have become a must for every household.
Parents like today are very careful that their children can't walk on the road, because even in the village, there will be fast cars passing by.
People will encounter danger, then the dog is naturally also, always walking on the shore, where there are not wet shoes, playing on the road for a long time, naturally easy to encounter danger, all say that the car and horse are ruthless, a careless dog will lose his life, after all, no matter how good luck, it is rare to not encounter an accident in ten years.
2. Every year, outsiders will come to the village to secretly take dog medicine away.
Some dogs are very sensible, and after seeing the situation of their companions in car accidents, they understand the danger of the road, so they can try not to walk on the road, but they can't stand the persecution of people with hearts.
Most of the dogs in the village are docile, looking at the people who come and go outside every day, as long as they are not close to their own homes, the dogs basically do not bark, usually encounter strangers that is, bark, rarely go near, if someone wants to touch, the dog will also be very well-behaved to give you a touch.
But almost every year, people will use various utensils to medicine dogs in the village, such as filling the meatballs with poison, or using anesthesia needles, but also with rope nooses, etc., so many dogs in the village have lost their young lives.
3. The natural life expectancy of dogs in rural areas is not high.
The life span of dogs in the village is often very limited, on the one hand, the dog's diet is relatively casual, most dogs are eating the owner's leftovers all year round, which is like irritating onions, ginger, garlic and even peppers, including salt and other ingredients that dogs are not suitable for excessive intake.
So basically many rural dogs look very old when they are seven or eight years old, whether it is the white hair on the face or the waddling pace.
Coupled with some things that eat randomly outside, dogs are more likely to get sick, so dogs that can naturally live for more than ten years are basically the types that have a particularly good physique.
It can be said that old dogs that are more than ten years old are basically rarely seen among free-range dogs.
So why would a dog dealer come to buy a dog that's been around for more than a decade? What is the status of a ten-year-old dog in the hearts of rural people?
Ten years old dogs are actually very few free-range dogs, most of them are watchdogs with chains, farmers almost do not play and interact with dogs, that is, every day to the dog's meal, and then go to feed the dog.
Therefore, the general owner's family has limited feelings for dogs, which is why some people will choose to sell the old dogs that have been raised for ten years for less than a thousand yuan.
Sometimes people will take their dogs to the market to sell.
What is the general use of a ten-year-old dog being bought?
1. Dogs become old and mature, and dogs are gradually becoming humane when they are old, which has a good effect on teaching some hound puppies.
Some people will go out of their way to buy some older hounds as guides for puppies, because if they are the parents of dogs, they will be more pampered in education, but not strict enough, so at this time they will buy an old, although physical strength can not keep up, but full of experience of the earth dog to teach puppies.
After all, the earth dog that can live to be more than ten years old is very intelligent, not only can understand the meaning behind the behavior of many people, but also understand the efficacy of many herbs, but also know what things can not be eaten, have a very keen intuition for the judgment of danger, this is what many dogs exchange for their lives, and it is not simple to teach, it can be described as a real word, false transmission of thousands of books!
Of course, it is some old hunters who will do this now, and now the mountains are closed to breeding forests, and the mountains are protected by animals, and few people will choose to do this.
2. Ten years old dogs may have "dog treasure", and if you buy a dog with dog treasure, the price of ten dogs will be earned back!
What is "Dog Treasure"? Dog treasure is a stone-like thing that grows in a dog's stomach. Most of them are spherical or elliptical, generally 1 to 5 cm in diameter, with a grayish-white or gray-black surface, slightly shiny, and have multiple class circular protrusions. The texture is firm and delicate, and scratches are visible at the beginning of the nail. The section is white or toothy white, concentric ring-like layers, near the center is loose, but most can not be separated, slightly fishy, slightly bitter taste, chewing has a powdery and sandy feeling. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that it has the function of lowering headwinds, opening knots and detoxifying. Indications for the treatment of chest and rib distension, esophageal cancer, stomach cancer, nausea, boils, etc., is an important raw material for a variety of good medicines. Dogbao is a traditional Chinese medicine material in China, and has been known as the "Three Treasures" since ancient times, along with Niuhuang and Ma Bao.
Many sick people are offering high prices for "dog treasure", after all, it is rumored that dog treasure has been offered a price of one gram and five hundred in some places, driven by such interests, which makes many people choose to attack dogs in the countryside.
And more than ten years of dogs basically rely on stealing and robbing is impossible, after all, the dog is old, then spend some money to find a dog owner to buy, although many people will not sell, but some economically underdeveloped places, may work a year to earn tens of thousands of dollars, then a dog can sell a thousand yuan, this may be the family children's school tuition or the purchase of some agricultural tools.
We cannot say whether such a choice is good or bad, but a willing to fight and a wish to suffer is a helpless choice.
3. But the most, more than ten years of dogs are still bought after being bought as meat dogs.
The number of the first two is very small, and now the acquisition of dogs is more or more as meat dogs, and people in some places will specifically buy some old dogs in order to satisfy their appetites.
Dogs have worked hard for their owners to take care of the home for a lifetime, and at the end of the day, they will be sold for a good price, which may be the fate of pastoral dogs.
We are sad about it, but we can't do anything, this is a helpless choice made under economic conditions, we can only say that we have enough food and clothing to know honor and disgrace, and to talk to people who are still struggling for basic life and say that we love, it seems too pretentious.
But people with that level of economy, like the rural areas in some developed areas, basically for the family dogs, they are raised until the dogs die naturally, and even bury the dogs together in the family cemetery.
If your dog is over ten years old and someone is willing to pay a big price to buy your old dog, what will you choose?
But if it were me, give me 100,000 and I wouldn't just give up my dog like that!
