This morning, my mother took her child and her dog to play in the yard.
The dog was bought home in June. In front of the child's school, a middle-aged man selling dogs appeared before the holidays. There are several newborn puppies in iron cages, and a group of children can be seen watching them every day after school.
The child is 12 years old. He particularly likes small animals and is pestering him to buy them all day long. She had raised little rabbits, little goldfish, little hamsters, little turtles, and little chicks, but because of her lack of experience, she ended up...
She had always wanted to raise a puppy. But what my mother is most afraid of are these little animals, especially cats and dogs. This time the child saw the little dog at the school gate again. His heels seemed to be stuck there and he would not move for a long time.
After spending two days with her mother, she promised a bunch of obedient people that she would be responsible for all the dog's affairs, and exchanged 20 yuan of pocket money for a black-bodied, brown-hoofed puppy, named "Cherry."
The child loved it so much. In the first few days, he fed Cherry milk and water, cleaned up its toilet, and hurriedly took it to the pet hospital when it caught a cold, which made the mother doubt her own eyes.
The most endearing thing about a cherry is its eyes, which stare at you with watery eyes, making people unable to bear to refuse. But there is also a headache, which is defecation anywhere. When the temperature continued to exceed 36°C for several days, the room was always filled with the smell of dog feces. Although it was cleaned up in time, it still made my mother want to vomit.
More than a month has passed since the end of June. When I bought it, because of my mother's sincere objection, the child brought the cherry back almost as quickly as he handed the money and hugged the dog. The origin of the dog was nowhere to be found, except for a child cooing that it was about a month old.
Dogs grow very fast, their claws become sharper and their teeth become sharper. She likes to pull at the hem of clothes and skirts, chew on shoes and socks, and jump on the sofa. The brittle bones, placed in a small bowl, will be destroyed in the blink of an eye. When happy, he licks people's toes and climbs onto people's knees.
This worries my mother more and more. The dog is cute and cute, but it doesn’t know that its claws and teeth can accidentally injure its owner, especially in summer.
After discussion, the mother and the child’s father planned to send the puppy back to the grandma’s house in the countryside as soon as possible, where it might be more suitable for it.
But just this morning, at the beginning of the article, an accident happened.
Because I only gave Little Cherry some milk in the morning, I was afraid that it would be hungry, so while playing in the yard, I went to the supermarket and bought three hams.
The child tore off the skin of the ham, broke off a section, squatted down and fed it to Coyotito's mouth. At this time, Cherry may be really hungry, and she jumps and bites the sausage in the child's hand.
I heard the child say, "Mom, my finger is bleeding!" Sure enough, drops of blood were dripping down near the fingernail of her left hand.
Mom was a little panicked. There was a pharmacy not far away, so she quickly took her there. Disinfected with alcohol, squeezed and pinched the blood from the wound, and felt confused. The drugstore saleswoman said, hurry up and get a rabies vaccine, no one can tell you about this. There is no cure for rabies attacks.
He quickly went home to discuss the matter with the child’s father. As soon as he heard about the bleeding, he took the child directly to the Municipal Center for Disease Control and Prevention for an injection.
While the father and daughter were getting injections, my mother checked online. There are all kinds of suggestions, which makes people feel more anxious.
The child came back and said that today was the first shot. There are five injections in total, at 1, 3, 7, 14, and 28 days. Why are you calling me five times? Isn’t one shot enough? Are there any serious side effects? My heart clenched tightly.
I really regret that I didn’t firmly oppose my children’s raising of dogs. If I continue to do so, I will suffer chaos.
