Pet Clinic Story

In the middle of the night, Situ Yue was fast asleep with Zhou Shuyang in his arms, when the ear-piercing cell phone rang suddenly.

Both of them were taken aback. Situ Yue let go of Zhou Shuyang, picked up the phone and looked at it, and immediately connected, and said a few words on the other end.

"Okay, I'll be there right away." Finally he replied and hung up the phone.

"What's the matter?" Zhou Shuyang asked sleepily, "Someone invited you to spend the night together, sir?"

"What are you talking about!" Situ Yue slapped him and said with a smile, "Hurry up, there is a night emergency."

Zhou Shuyang asked in surprise, "Ah? Who is it?"

Situ Yue said succinctly: "Old He, Yingniu is about to give birth, caesarean section." He got out of bed first and changed clothes quickly.

Lao He is the owner of a kennel in Zhongcheng, and also a resident customer of Yang Yue. His kennel is located in the suburbs and has a wide variety of breeds, including two female English bulldogs. One of them was conceived two months ago. Make an appointment with Situ Yue in advance to have a caesarean section when the time comes.

Due to the special size of the British bulldog, it is almost difficult to give birth naturally. 90.00% of them need caesarean section, and the number of pregnancies is not many, with an average of four in a single litter. , eight, each alive and well.

The survival rate of British bulldog puppies is extremely low, especially the newborn puppies, which are often exhausted when they are taken out of the mother dog's stomach, which leads to their high prices. After all, the number is scarce and the cost of feeding is also very high. high.

Zhou Shuyang turned over and got out of bed, put on his clothes, and complained at the same time: "Why are you born in the middle of the night?"

"Many animals give birth in the middle of the night." Situ Yue put on his shoes and explained, "It's probably safer during this time period. After all, most large beasts come and go during the day."

The two rushed to the clinic, and Old He of the dog farm was already waiting at the door with his bulldog. Seeing them coming, he couldn't help being startled, wondering why the boss came with him.

But Lao He didn't care too much, just smiled apologetically, and said politely: "Yo, Boss Zhou is here too? I'm really sorry to disturb you in the middle of the night."

"It's okay." Zhou Shuyang didn't explain, took out the key to open the door, and said, "Come in quickly, and let Director Situ take a look at the situation."

The three of them entered the clinic. Lao He carried the bulldog onto the treatment table and introduced the situation to Situ Yue: "Based on the date of mating, it should have been born after birth. I saw that it fell asleep without any movement at night, but who would have woken up in the middle of the night and found it No, look at the back, the amniotic fluid is coming out."

Situ Yue examined it carefully and said, "It's a bit late, so hurry up and operate, or the puppy in my stomach will suffocate."

Old He nodded hurriedly, Situ Yue gave the bullfighting anesthesia, and the three of them went into the operating room together, Situ Yue was the chief surgeon, Zhou Shuyang was the second, and Lao Liu stood aside and waited for the puppy to be dealt with in time when it was pulled out.

Situ Yue opened the female dog's abdomen, then cut open the uterus with a scalpel, and took out a cub, which was only about ten centimeters long, covered in sticky liquid, and closed its eyes.

He handed the puppy to Lao He, and Lao He picked up the toilet paper prepared on the side, carefully wiped off the amniotic fluid in the puppy's mouth and nostrils, and then kept rubbing the puppy's back with his hands. A grandma's call.

"I'm alive! I'm alive!" Old He was ecstatic, then turned over and looked at him, his face collapsed immediately, and he said sadly: "Damn it, it's a young man!"

Hearing this, Zhou Shuyang and Situ Yue immediately looked at each other tacitly and made eye contact.

Situ Yue: My lord...

Zhou Shuyang: Hehe, little Gong.

Another puppy was taken out, and Old He did the same thing. After a while, a weak barking sounded, and Old He said "Amitabha" to the sky, and then he looked slowly. His face was overjoyed in an instant, and he exclaimed: "Damn, haha Thank you Bodhisattva for blessing!"

Zhou Shuyang: "..."

The third one came out, Situ Yue subconsciously looked at it, frowned slightly, but didn't say anything, handed the puppy to Old He, and Old He rubbed it for a long time, the puppy was like a noodle, limp all over, and moved Also do not move.

After thinking for a while, Lao He gave the puppy mouth-to-mouth artificial respiration, his face flushed, and the puppy still had no signs of life.

"Damn it!" He threw the puppy into the trash can and cursed, "Damn it, what a bad luck!"

Zhou Shuyang: "!!"

"Boss He!" Zhou Shuyang was unhappy, and said coldly, "Don't throw it around, please? Find a place where no one is around, dig a hole and bury it."

"Oh yes, I forgot." Lao He took out the dead puppy and said loudly, "I'm sorry for the pollution-free disposal, Boss Zhou."

Fortunately, the last one survived, and it was also a female dog. Old He was full of sorrow and joy. After a while, he was happy that he gave birth to two female dogs, so he could sell more money, and then he complained that one died. Live in broken thoughts, like mosquitoes in summer.

Situ checked more carefully and confirmed that there were no cubs in the womb, so he told Lao He, but Lao He didn't give up and asked, "Really? Director Situ, have you cleaned everything up?"

"Well, sure." Situ Yue said lightly.

"Damn!" Lao He scolded again, "There are only four children, so few!"

Zhou Shuyang: "..."

Situ Yue began to clean the uterus of the caesarean female dog, and was about to sew it up, when he suddenly found something, he lowered his head and looked carefully, and after a while, he frowned deeply, and asked in a deep voice: "Old He, how many times has this dog been born?" ?”

"Four times, what's wrong?" Old He wondered.

Situ Yue didn't answer, just continued to ask: "It looks like it's only four years old, if it's four times...you don't have a litter match?"

"No." Old He took it for granted, "The breeding season of bullfighting bulls is already short, and they can't give birth at the age of six. I will breed every other litter. I can only have three litters in six years. I don't have to pay for it!"

Situ Yue was a little surprised. When he was working in the capital, he used to come into contact with regular kennels. The bulldogs there had to have a caesarean section every time, and they could only mate at least one year later. Otherwise, the wounds on the uterus and abdomen would not heal at all. , very harmful to dogs.

But the pet industry in Zhongcheng is not well developed, the kennels are not formal, and the phenomenon of overbreeding is not uncommon. After all, everyone's primary purpose is to make money, and they don't care about the dog's health.

"Its uterine wall is already very thin." Situ Yue warned: "And there is still serious empyema. It is best to remove the uterus this time to avoid future troubles. Otherwise, if this continues, this dog Even if it's useless."

"This is impossible!" Old He vetoed, "It is only four years old, and it can have at least two litters. I have raised it for so long, but it didn't make me much money in total."

"I'm going to die!" Zhou Shuyang interrupted.

"No, no!" Old He said disapprovingly, "The other one in my house has already had six litters, nothing happened, it will go into heat again soon, very good!"

Zhou Shuyang had a stinky face and stopped talking. Situ Yue knew that he couldn't persuade Lao He, so he sighed softly, carefully cleaned the inner wall of the bitch's uterus, and kindly stuffed expensive imported anti-inflammatory drugs into it, and carefully sewed it up.

After everything was done, Lao He paid the money and thanked him, first threw the mother dog into the trunk, then carefully put the three puppies into the cardboard box, including the dead one, and drove away.

Seeing the shadow of the car disappearing in the night, Zhou Shuyang sighed deeply, and said melancholy: "What a crime!"

"The sorrow of being a breeding dog." Situ Yue said helplessly.

"So isn't it promoting on the Internet?" Zhou Shuyang said, "Use adoption instead of buying and selling, and don't let dogs become a reproductive tool for making money."

"You're thinking too simply." Situ Yue said, "Adoption replacement business is just a slogan. It's simple to say, but it's very difficult to actually operate. It's very deep, you don't understand."

"Oh? Let's hear it." The two walked back to the clinic, Zhou Shuyang asked.

Situ thought about it more and said, "I won't be able to tell for a while. It just so happened that I received an invitation a few days ago. I will take you with me when the time comes. You will understand."

"What invitation?" Zhou Shuyang asked in confusion as he began to pack his things.

"An invitation from the Zhongcheng Small Animal Protection Association." Situ Yue replied, "Let us participate in a public welfare event, provide free medical treatment for small animals in the shelter, and participate in a seminar on how to promote adoption. When the time comes, the staff of the association will There will be many volunteers.”

Zhou Shuyang asked: "Why didn't I hear you say it?"

"I haven't decided whether to go or not." Situ Yue said, "So I didn't agree at the time. Now it seems that it is really necessary to go."

"In fact, there is no original sin in breeding." Situ Yue continued, "Excellent breeders can ensure that a dog breed can be continued and improved, and at the same time ensure that a certain number of purebred dogs circulate in the market. It's the informal kennels that are breeding out of control that are harmful."

"Breeding is impossible to completely ban. This is equivalent to asking game companies to stop their operations. It is unrealistic. The more resistance, the more it will cause some unscrupulous kennels to breed useless dogs or even hybrid dogs in large numbers, resulting in more people like today. The pain this pit bull is facing."

"The correct approach should be to guide and support those regular kennels. The industry must formulate relevant regulations, standardize breeding, and uniformly issue pedigree certificates, implant chips, and make each dog orderly and traceable. Slowly, there will be no Bad kennels with strong strength will be phased out, leaving only those regular ones.”

In the end, he concluded: "Although this cannot fully guarantee the rights and interests of breeding dogs, it is certainly much better than the current situation. Foreign countries have already done it, and domestic still has a long way to go."

"The law on the protection of small animals has not been perfected for a long time." Zhou Shuyang said helplessly, "Every time a meeting is held, deputies to the National People's Congress propose drafts. After so many years, there is still no system to come out."

"Human rights protection still needs to be improved." Situ Yue said, "Animals are naturally out of the wheel for the time being. There is no way. The national conditions are such that we need to give the superiors some time. What's more, even if a formal bill is introduced now, based on the overall moral level of the current society, it is also unreasonable. It's hard to promote."

"You're right." Zhou Shuyang sighed, "Humans don't care about it. Who cares about small animals? The Buddha said that all living beings are equal. I don't think so."

"There is no absolute equality." Situ Yue said, "The law can only protect the rights and interests of the majority of people. The so-called true equality is just a candy to appease everyone."

The two were emotional all the way, Zhou Shuyang started the car, and dragged Situ Yue home exhaustedly.

A few days later, Lao He hurried to Yangyue again with another bulldog.

Something big happened this time!

The bulldog started to heat more than ten days ago, and today is the mating day. As a result, not long after the male dog rode on it, the female dog let out a scream and collapsed limply on the ground.

Lao He was so frightened that his eyes were blackened, and he immediately brought the bulldog to Situ Yue for help. When he arrived at the clinic, the female dog was already dying.

After the examination, Situ Yue said in a low voice, "The uterus is ruptured and bleeding profusely, there is no hope."

"No way?" Old He was struck by lightning, tremblingly said: "How could this happen?"

"I told you last time," Situ Yue explained, "Frequent laparotomy and lack of rest will cause the wall of the uterus to become thinner. How can it withstand such a heavy male dog? Now its uterus is bleeding profusely, causing Multiple organs failed, and the gods couldn't be saved."

As if confirming Situ Yue's words, the bitch suddenly gasped a few times, and then spewed out a mouthful of blood, surviving the mucus in her mouth, and died immediately.

Lao He shook his head, as if it was a pity, Zhou Shuyang also confiscated his money, and the two watched him walk away dejectedly holding the dead bulldog.

Well, it's also a relief!

Zhou Shuyang thought silently in his heart: I hope you can return to Planet Wang and never enter the six realms of reincarnation again.
