Pet King

If one were to say that a Rottweiler was a hero of strength, then a Doberman was a hero of agility.
The differences in their appearances were very easy to see.

Except for the dark brown on the mouth, nose, chest and limbs, the Doberman’s whole body looked like a smooth black brocade, which could only be described by the word “sleek.”

Zhang Zian was not the only one who recognized the Doberman.
Even Hei Zi, who did not recognize dogs, exclaimed, “Isn’t this the zombie dog from Resident Evil?”

For domestic dog fans, the first contact with the Doberman was often through the Resident Evil game or movie.
Whether in the game or in the movie, the Doberman infected by the zombie virus impressed the players and fans.
In addition, the dog’s hearing and smell were enhanced by the T virus.
Once one was found by the zombie dog, it was an endless pursuit.

In the game and the movie plot, the Raccoon City police station bought in a group of Dobermans to be police dogs, but they were infected by the virus.
Although Dobermans were very rare in local police stations and armies, in other countries, it was a very popular breed of dog.

Zhang Zian lightly tapped Hei Zi and said, “There’s no need to hesitate.
If there’s a chance, just directly take one of these.”

Hei Zi hesitated.
“There’s no need to look at the rest?”

“There’s no need.
For your solo survival in the wilderness, the Doberman is the most suitable guard dog.
There’s no other,” Zhang Zian said confidently.

The audience in the live broadcast room was split into two groups.
The males were all exclaiming about how handsome the dog was, and most of the female audience felt that the dog was very fierce and very scary.

Snowy belonged to the latter.
She felt that this dog was an especially fierce dog and did not seem easy to get close to, and she started to miss Uncle Jin’s little husky.  ( Boxno vel.
co m )

The feeling that the little husky gave people was that it was alright to kick it a bit, and although these few Dobermans were young, the feeling that they gave people was that if you kicked them, they would bite you.

Zhang Zian explained to Hei Zi, “The most unique part about the Doberman is that it has a very high sense of awareness, and it is so sensitive it can sense emotions.
As soon as there is any movement, it will react.
While this could be problematic in the city, it’s a good quality to have in the wild.”

Hei Zi himself was thin, and seeing the Doberman that was also leanly built, he liked it a lot.
But after seeing the strongly built Rottweiler, he felt that the Rottweiler was quite good too.

“Better than the Rottweiler?” he asked.

Zhang Zian answered, “Besides its sensitivity to danger being stronger than a Rottweiler, the two also have another difference.
The Rottweiler does not like to bark.
If it is angered or feels like it is threatened, it will instantly jump and bite the other.
It’s a dog that is used as an anti-riot dog overseas, and it’s not as good as the Doberman in being a police dog, because the Doberman will first bark twice to warn the other party before it jumps and bites… I feel that it’s better for it to bark twice, what about you?”

Hei Zi understood his meaning.
Whether it was in the wild or the city, it was never good to instantly jump and bite.

“In addition, the Rottweiler also has a minor drawback,” Zhang Zian added.
“Because of the shape of the mouth, they like to drool.
As long as the mouth is open, it may drool, and some people may be concerned about this.
Of course, the Doberman is not without shortcomings.
For example, biting is in the Doberman’s nature.
If the husky, golden retriever, and Samoyed are the three giants of demolition, the Doberman’s destructive power can top all three!”

“That’s not a problem.
I often treat the wild as my home.
If it has the ability to, let it destroy that,” Hei Zi smiled, not caring at all.

“If you can accept its shortcomings, then it is the most suitable partner for you,” Zhang Zian said.
“The Doberman is called the One Man Dog abroad, which means that he only recognizes one master.
Even if he and his wife raise him together, he will have a clear difference in familiarity and alienation and only regard one of them as his life.
Once it admits that you are its owner, it will play the nature of the guard dog, pestering you all day and wanting to stay with you.
The difference between the so-called guard dog and the ordinary dog is that when someone invades your house, the ordinary dog may rush towards the gangster, while the guard dog will protect you as the first priority, rather than fighting with the gangster.”

Zhang Zian’s description of the relationship between the Doberman and the owner made Hei Zi listen with great fascination.
Who wouldn’t want to own something that belonged only to him? There was no doubt about the loyalty of the Doberman.

“Alright!” Hei Zi nodded his head excitedly.
“I’ll listen to you and buy the Doberman!”

However, there was another difference between these puppies and the Doberman in Resident Evil.
Their ears were still soft, not as handsome as those in games and movies that had their ears upright.

Their tails had been cut off from the second segment of the tailbone at birth, leaving only a short segment, but the layman could not see it, and Hei Zi was in need of a dog with a broken tail.

The owner of the young dogs had brought them here because she’d wanted to find the bald roving doctor to cut and tie its ears so that the ears would stand up handsomely.
That way, it could sell for a good price.
After all, everyone recognized a Doberman with cut ears.

“I want to check—how are you selling this Doberman?” Hei Zi walked over and asked the lady.

She looked at him, not really wanting to bother with him, and used a strong local accent to say, “Sell! Of course I’m selling it! Dobermans are very expensive.
Do you want to buy?”

Hei Zi nodded.
“I want to buy one.”

“Then you pick one yourself.” The woman made her way to the side to haggle with the bald roving doctor.

Hei Zi turned his head back and looked towards Zhang Zian with a gaze that was asking for help.
He wanted Zhang Zian to choose one for him, but Zhang Zian shook his head slightly, saying, “When choosing pets, you need to base it on your affinity.
It’s you who is buying a pet and not me, so it’s better that you choose one yourself.”

“But…” Hei Zi was still a bit hesitant.
He already knew that the dog market was very complicated, and although he did not lack money, he did not want to spend a lot of time and effort before he found that the dog he’d chosen was not suitable.

“Don’t worry, I’ll help you check it,” Zhang Zian said, encouraging him.

“Alright…”

Hei Zi walked up to the cage, and the few Dobermans were all staring at him.

How to choose?

He was also very troubled.

Then he touched his trouser pocket and remembered that there was a bag of beef jerky in there.
Wildlife enthusiasts like him regularly carried chocolate bars or beef jerky with them for occasional use.

The pants he was wearing today had a bag of beef jerky, and he’d forgotten to take it out when he’d washed his clothes.
He took it out to take a look.
Because the container was very tightly sealed, there were no openings, so the beef jerky probably could still be eaten.

“Come.
I’ll let you eat beef jerky.”

He tore open the bag and stuffed the beef jerky into the cage to observe their reactions, wanting to choose the toughest one of the lot.

Hei Zi did not know, but behind him, when Zhang Zian saw his actions, he shook his head silently.
