The prototype of the famous comic character Snoopy is the Beagle. Although Snoopy and Beagle are not very similar in appearance to fur color, many real fans can recognize Snoopy's true form even if they are full of Gaussian blur and mosaic.

The girl who just came in was obviously a big fan of Snoopy and screamed in surprise as soon as she entered the door.

A little brat like Xiao Qianqian had never read Snoopy's comics or animations, and he didn't know what the big sister was calling out, and she was still crying and trying to buy the beagle home.

Zhang Zian recognized that the new girl was the morning runner who passed by the pet door in recent mornings. She was tall, wearing a sports hood and tights, and a seemingly professional sports anti-smog mask, covering most of her face, pressing her hat to her forehead, and wearing protective glasses. She basically couldn't see what she looked like. She could only tell from her curved eyes that she was a kind girl.

She was shocked to realize her loss of composure and immediately bowed to everyone at a 45-degree angle to apologize, "I'm sorry, sorry! I was so excited to see Snoopy! I've caused you trouble! I'm sorry!"

Even if he screamed, he wouldn't have apologized like this, right? It's not something worth apologizing. Xiaoxue is already very polite, but the girl's etiquette seems to be a bit too thoughtful, which makes everyone a little uneasy.

"Uh... it doesn't matter, are you here to buy pets?" Zhang Zian asked.

"Ah, yes, I want to see it. I like snoopy very much!" she gestured, still bowing slightly while speaking.

As the saying goes, it’s not a surprise for many people to give her a lot of tributes, but she has too many tributes, which makes everyone feel very strange. Ordinary people don’t say that, so Zhang Zian asked tentatively: “I’ll take the liberty to ask where are you from?”

The sports girl took off her protective glasses and mask and said apologetically: "When I first met, my name was Suzuhara Mai, and I was an international student from Fusang. When I was in Fusang, I heard the speech of Mr. Wu Mingzhen and knew that there was a very famous pet shop in Binhai City. I really wanted to come and have a look. I happened to have studied Chinese, so I applied for an exchange student at Binhai University and would stay in China for one semester."

Huh?

Zhang Zian and Xiaoxue were both very surprised. It turned out to be an international student from Fusang. No wonder they had never seen her run in the morning before.

"You speak Mandarin very well," he exclaimed, "I didn't even hear you were a foreigner."

"Yes, Mandarin is very good!" Xiaoxue also echoed.

"Thank you." Suzuhara Mai said respectfully.

"I am Zhang Zi'an, the owner of the store here, welcome. Actually, I want to ask... I saw you running in the morning a few days ago, why didn't you come in until today?" Zhang Zi'an said.

She smiled and said, "I'm sorry to be unsure if it's here, and I'm sorry to disturb you. Today I saw other customers in the store, so I mustered up the courage to come in..."

Zhang Zian said with peace of mind that it was because you ran too early, so how could there be guests so early?

What surprised him even more was that Suzuhara Mai only learned about Qiyuan Pet Shop through Wu Mingzhen’s speech!

Wu Mingzhen is the president of the Changqiao Pet Exchange Promotion Association, who has been to the store once before. He has a lot of pet knowledge and is very knowledgeable about the ancient works such as "The Sutra of the Cats" passed down. Since that time, he has communicated with Zhang Zi'an several times online, invited each other and gained a lot.

When he left, he claimed that he would help Zhang Zi'an promote overseas and even invited Zhang Zi'an to hold a meeting overseas. However, Zhang Zi'an did not take it too seriously and just treated it as a polite person. Unexpectedly, he really attracted foreign customers, and this girl was still an exchange student at Binhai University.

Qian Bowen's description of his former dog aroused a big discussion among netizens in the live broadcast room, and even ignored the Fusang girl who had just entered.

"A situation like him shouldn't have a dog at all!"

"It's okay to keep dogs, such as Samoyed, it's okay. My Samoyed often doesn't yell from morning to night. When I first bought it, I thought it was a mute..."

"The beagle is really a big deal. My uncle used to raise a beag, which made him think about life all day long, and my grandfather almost got called out of a heart attack!"

"Actually, I have a way to use a small thing to prevent the dog from barking!"

"What kind of gadget? Stop sucking your appetite, hurry up!"

"Do you know the electric shock collar? This thing is a magical tool! After putting it on the dog, you can activate it by whispering and biting it. It can adjust the intensity of the electric shock, and it can also control the electricity remotely from hundreds of meters. You don't need to pull a rope when walking the dog..."

"Is it so amazing?"

"I won't lie to you, several dog owners nearby use this thing, it's very useful!"

"I have used the electric shock collar, and the principle seems to be to discharge the vocal cords when they vibrate. It is not as magical as you said, so it is somewhat useful..."

After reading the discussions among netizens, Xiaoxue asked curiously: "Standard Manager, what is an electric shock collar? Everyone said that this thing can stop dogs from barking and biting, is it true?"

"What?"

Qian Bowen heard Xiaoxue's words and felt that it was good to have such a convenient thing. If it was really useful, even if it was more expensive, he would buy it back for the middle of the night. If the dog barked again, he would not have to get out of bed. Just press the remote control on the bed to shut up the dog. How convenient!

The beagle dog in his house used to beat, scold, and hungry because of its swearing. It was completely useless. Instead, it screamed even harder. If the electric shock collar is effective, it will really solve the big problem.

"Don't! Snoopy is very pitiful!" Suzuhara Mai blocked in front of the display cabinet in panic, as if worried that Zhang Zian would really put an electric shock collar on the Beagle.

She looked sad and repeated in a low voice: "Snoopy is pitiful...snoopy is pitiful..."

Seeing that her expression was different, Zhang Zian also noticed that she was not saying "the dog is pitiful", but specifically referring to "the beagle is pitiful". Has she raised a beagle before? Or had she ever had a close contact with a beagle?

Qian Bowen interrupted his reverie and asked earnestly: "Manager Zhang, do you have an electric shock collar here? Is this thing really useful?"

He was really annoyed by the barking of dogs, and was almost at the bottom of his patience. He suddenly heard a solution that seemed to be a folk remedy and went to the hospital in an emergency, as if he had caught a life-saving straw.

Zhang Zian shook his head, comforted Linhara Mai first, and said, "Don't worry, I don't have an electric shock collar here, nor will I wear an electric shock collar on the dogs in the store. This thing is evil, and a gentleman like me disdained it."

Suzuhara Mai was relieved. The netizens in the live broadcast room were heartbroken and could not bear to see this unscrupulous study abroad girl being deceived. They called on Xiaoxue to tell her the nature of Zhang Zi'an's pretending, fraudster and sexual harassing criminal.

Zhang Zian explained to Qian Bowen again: "I have heard of electric shock collars. As for whether this thing can stop dogs from barking and biting... To be honest, this depends on dogs and cannot be generalized. Electric shock collars may indeed have some effects, but don't deify them too much. In the final analysis, it is just an auxiliary training prop and cannot be abused. What is abuse? Just as the netizen said just now, don't take a leash when walking the dog, wait for it to run far away. This is abuse. You should know that after you power it, you may have the opposite effect as expected. It may run away or even lose it because of fear, rather than running back."

Some netizens agreed: "I agree with the store manager and put it in mind. I don't agree to wear an electric shock collar on the dog. If anyone feels that it's enjoyable to be electrocuted, why not go to Professor Yang to try it out, and make sure it's so cool!"

Zhang Zi'an pointed to Zhan Tian and said, "The real scientific training method is like the instructors at the police dog base to train police dogs. They both attach equal importance to favor and power, and have clear rewards and punishments. Do you think that the electric shock collar can train police dogs? It is impossible, it's just that people want to be lazy."

Qian Bowen smiled bitterly, "Shop Manager Zhang, I don't want to train a dog like a police dog. I don't have the ability. As long as I can stop barking... Is there any good way?"

"Of course there is a method. Didn't you just ask why the beagle dog in my shop doesn't bark even if it doesn't train it?" Zhang Zi'an said.

This question has been bothering Qian Bowen since just now. Why did he work hard to train his own dog but it was useless and barking more than dogs in pet stores?

Xiaoxue and Vivi listened attentively.

Zhang Zi'an raised his chin and signaled them to observe Xiao Qianqian who was squatting on the ground and cheating.

"Actually, the more the dog is, the more clingy the dog is, the more I hope the owner will pay more attention to it, and I wish I could be with the owner 24 hours a day and play with the owner, but this is obviously unrealistic. We have to work, study, and do housework. It is impossible to accompany the dog 24 hours a day, which has a gap with the dog's expectations. The dog does not understand these, it only hopes that the owner will pay more attention to it. So how can it gain the owner's attention? It's very simple, it's barking."

Qian Bowen, Xiaoxue and Weiwei seemed to understand something, but they didn't fully understand it.

Zhang Zian continued: "Except for a few dogs, most dogs are very smart. When they come to a new family, they will test their owners and establish future codes of conduct based on this. So, when you buy a dog home, if it likes to bark, this is what you should do not punish it, nor reward it with snacks, or even don't look at it. If it is willing to yell, let it yell and treat it coldly. Soon it will understand that this fact cannot attract the attention of its owner with its yell, and it has no meaning except wasting physical strength."

"Is it very similar to a child?" he laughed. "Children use crying and cheating to attract the attention and sympathy of adults. This is a negotiation method. If adults make concessions and meet their requirements, their subconscious will realize that they can use crying to force adults to make concessions next time, as long as they cry louder."

Qian Bowen, Xiaoxue and Weiwei, as well as netizens in the live broadcast room, were all enlightened by Qian Bowen's previous practice. When his little friend called, he ran to feed him or told him not to yell. For the beagle who is extremely relative, even if the owner scolded him and beat him, it would be better than the owner sniffed him and ignored him. As long as he shouted, he could see his master, so it became increasingly fierce, hoping to attract more attention from his master, and it was successful.

When Xiao Qianqian heard Zhang Zian's words, he stopped wiping his tears blankly.

Zhang Zi'an showed up and pointed at Zhan Tian, ​​"Basically, I would take this retired police dog out for training every morning. Before you entered the store, it rubbed my legs, meaning why it wasn't going out today. I told it that it was foggy outside today, so wait. So it quietly lay down and wait for me, because it understood that my decision could not be changed, and barking and cheating were meaningless."

He raised his hand and signaled to all the display cabinets for the puppies. "These puppies were also very yelling when they first came, especially the beagles. When other dogs bark, they bark, and the barks louder than anyone else, but I ignore them. They bark as soon as they are willing to bark. Except for daily feeding, cleaning and walking dogs, I don't care about them even if they bark their throats. Don't worry about them because they are sick and uncomfortable. When they are sick and uncomfortable, they should be weak, so how can they have the strength to bark?"

Qian Bowen looked at his son thoughtfully. Is Zhang Zi'an just teaching him how to raise a dog? No, Zhang Zi'an was clearly vaguely suggesting how he should educate his children.

If Zhang Zian was right, the same might be true of Shishi and Liu Sanlang's Labrador. They paid too much attention to it. When it screamed, it ran to care for it and make it happy, causing it to develop the bad habit of barking and disturbing the people.

He said to Xiaoxue's camera and netizens in the live broadcast room: "I have said before that raising a cat is like opening a harem, the better. Raising a dog is like raising a son, not too much. Because cats can be tolerated, they have little destructive power and rarely go out, but dogs cannot do it, dogs must be trained. But don't misunderstand that the so-called training not only refers to training in the conventional sense, but appropriate cold treatment is also a training method, and it is also a very important training method. If you don't want to raise your dog into a vicious dog that disturbs the people, you must learn to ignore it when it barks. Only when it is quiet, you can play with it and feed it."

"How is it, do you understand?" He smiled at Qian Bowen, "As long as you train well, you don't need props like electric shock collars."

Qian Bowen grabbed Zhang Zi'an's hand and was so excited that he was incoherent, "Shop Manager Zhang, thank you so much! I... I used to...ah... I really regretted it!"

He tried his best to train the dog, but because of his poor training, he had a counterproductive effect. At this time, he suddenly realized his confidence, which was destroyed by the Beagle dog, was restored.

Zhang Zian pulled out his hand and shook his head and said, "I can only tell you the theory that this is not easy to operate. You need to discuss with your family. When the beagle barks, everyone must take an ignorant attitude, including the guests. Even if anyone is soft-hearted and reacts to its screams, it will be encouraged and scream even more... I still don't recommend that you raise beagles. It would be fine if you were the only one, but your wife and children were there..."

Beagle is a special one. This kind of dog is so close to being beaten than to win the attention of its owner. Men can hold it hard, but it is easy for women and children to listen to their screams. Once they are soft-hearted, all their efforts will be wasted, and bad habits will not be easy to change.

Qian Bowen hesitated again. He was confident that he would not repeat the same mistakes, but could his wife and children bear it? He knew very well how his wife and children spoiled dogs. However, even if he had already fed dog food before meals, as long as Xiao Guai pounced on his legs during lunch, they would still pick up the ribs from the dining table and feed it to him...

"I want Xiaoguai! Dad! Can we buy Xiaoguai?" Xiaoqian jumped up from the ground, next to the beagle's display cabinet, and said to his father.

"Did you hear my uncle's words just now? Raising this kind of dog is a technical job. It doesn't care about it when it barks, and feeds it when it doesn't bark and play with it. Can you do it?" Qian Bowen asked back.

"It's certainly possible, guaranteed to be able to do it!" Xiao Qianqian answered without hesitation.

Even Xiaoxue and Weiwei could see that Xiaoqianqian had no brains at all, and was just perfunctory. After buying the dog home, he would forget this sentence.

Qian Bowen knew that his son was willful and naughty, but he still had a thought, because the beagle in the store had been almost handled by Zhang Zi'an Leng, not as yelling as the one in his house before. Maybe he could give it a try?

Netizens in the live broadcast room advised him not to be stupid. He should not take the naughty child's words seriously. Buying the beagle back will definitely harm others and oneself. I regret it at that time, but it's a pity that he can't see these barrage.

"This kind of dog seems to be quite difficult to raise. If you want to buy a dog, you should change it to another dog..." Xiaoxue advised tactfully.

Seeing that the momentum was wrong, Xiao Qianqian grinned and wiped the corners of his eyes and whimpered: "No! I want little beloved! Woo-woo~ I want little beloved! If I don't buy it for me, I won't leave. At worst, I can buy it with my own New Year's money! Woo-woo~"

His trick was so good that he thought that as long as he cried and made a fuss, his father would meet his request. However, he wiped his tears for ten minutes, but no one advised him not to cry.

Xiao Qianqian looked out from his fingers puzzledly. His father was asking Zhang Zi'an for some knowledge and tricks on raising dogs. Xiaoxue was introducing different kinds of cats in the store to Weiwei. Mai Suzuhara stared at the beagle intently, as if she was recalling something, and no one paid attention to him.

What's going on? Why is this trick not working?

He was surprised and even forgot to continue crying.

Seeing that he stopped crying, Qian Bowen turned around and smiled, "Okay, then you can buy it with New Year's money. But aren't you planning to buy Swith with New Year's money? If you buy a dog, you can't buy a game console. You can only continue to play with your classmates' game console."

Xiao Qianqian was stunned. My father seemed to be serious this time.

Swith appeared in his mind, and he had to buy games after buying a game console. The New Year's money was already very nervous.

Dogs or sweeps, that's a problem.
