Adorable Pet Daily Life Ch. 148

The girl was on the verge of breaking down, just like someone whose family member was about to die, completely heartbroken.

But after listening to her story, Shen Luo understood why she was falling apart.

She had come to B City to build a future with her boyfriend, leaving her hometown behind. But like so many stories, her boyfriend strayed, they broke up, and she was left all alone, struggling in this city by herself. The Pomeranian was her only family.

"Back then, I cried every single day. I didn't want to go to work, didn't want to eat, didn't want to sleep. He would crawl into my arms, wriggling around, and I knew he was trying to distract me, to make me happier, so I wouldn't be so sad."

Hearing this left Shen Luo with a heavy heart.

She had picked up the Pomeranian as a stray. Her boyfriend hadn't really liked the dog, but she insisted on keeping him. Maybe the breakup had something to do with the dog, but she had never regretted it.

The dog's original owner had even come back looking for him before, and the girl had paid money to settle the matter. When she was broke, the Pomeranian stayed by her side, gnawing on plain mantou with her, never complaining. After going through so much together, of course she couldn't let him go.

All Shen Luo could say was, "We'll definitely do everything we can to save him. And our hospital does have successful recovery cases. Just keep going to work. Treating this illness costs a lot of money."

It wasn't that Shen Luo was trying to ask her for money. He was really worried the girl might collapse. Having something to hold on to in her heart was at least a good thing.

Parvovirus was extremely dangerous, but it wasn't without a chance of being cured. Judging by the symptoms, this Pomeranian had the enteric form of the virus, with severe vomiting and diarrhea.

After Wang Bo quickly made the diagnosis, Wang Wei immediately went and cleaned a room, putting the Pomeranian inside and forbidding any other animals from entering or leaving. Parvovirus didn't spread through respiration, but when it did spread, it was quite formidable, and it was even more problematic if other healthy dogs got it.

The Pomeranian was put into its own separate ward, and Wang Wei got busy disinfecting the entire hospital.

Shen Luo had the girl stay with the Pomeranian. The dog was listless and weak. Because its digestive tract was the problem, it would vomit and have diarrhea no matter what it ate.

Shen Luo convinced the girl to go to work, and when she came back, she looked at the Pomeranian and said, "You have to hang in there. Look, she's so worried about you."

The Pomeranian's round eyes were a bit vacant. It looked at Shen Luo and only reacted after a long moment.

There was nothing Shen Luo could do for the weak Pomeranian, and the information the dog was transmitting due to its pain was so distressing that Shen Luo started getting a headache after being there for a while. He couldn't take it, so he simply left.

Shen Luo asked Wang Bo about the Pomeranian's condition. Wang Bo said, "It's still relatively optimistic right now. Let's just keep a close eye on it."

"How confident are you that you can save it?"

"Boss, you've known me for a few years now. You know it's hard to say with these things. We'll just do our best."

Shen Luo could only sigh helplessly. Wang Bo really never said how confident he was, but he generally tried his best to save every pet.

Wang Wei was still disinfecting the shop. The cats had all climbed up to the cat tree, and the dogs were all sent outside to play.

Just then, an old man walking a dog passed by and said to Shen Luo, "Xiao Shen, those three in the park are your dogs, right? They're quite something!"

Shen Luo was completely baffled. "What three dogs?"

The old man said, "You don't know? There are three dogs performing tricks in the park!"

Shen Luo: ...He wasn't a psychic with far sight and far hearing, so how would he know that!

Shen Luo ran to the grassy area in the park and saw a crowd of people gathered, applauding.

Pushing his way through the crowd, Shen Luo saw Ah Hua squatting on the ground, with her two front legs tucked in front of her chest, as if she were standing upright. Taro was rolling around on the ground, while Brother Pi was bouncing up and down, and upon closer inspection, he was even doing flips!

Shen Luo didn't feel proud; instead, he felt like he was losing face big time. What the hell were these guys going crazy over now!

At that moment, Brother Pi made a mad dash, stepped onto Ah Hua's back, and stood directly on top of her head! Because the top of Ah Hua's head was a small area, he could only stand on his two hind legs, with his front paws in the air.

At this, the crowd around them began to applaud. "Great! Awesome!"

Brother Pi then barked twice at Taro. Taro whined back, and while others might not have known what it meant, Shen Luo understood. Brother Pi was actually telling Taro to climb onto his own head and stand there! They were going to make a totem pole!

Damn it, not every dog was as much of an acrobat as Brother Pi!

Shen Luo cleared his throat twice. The three dogs all looked over at the same time. Ah Hua was startled and froze, wobbling a bit. Brother Pi almost fell off.

When Brother Pi saw Shen Luo, he also shrunk his neck, jumped down from Ah Hua's head, and ran over with a cheerful, wide-mouthed grin, trying to get past this incident with a cute act. But Shen Luo wasn't that easy to placate.

Shen Luo stepped forward and grabbed Brother Pi's dog ear. "What are you doing? Got nothing to do, huh? If you've got nothing to do, I'll send you to Boss Li's place tomorrow to dig sand!"

"Awoo wooo..." Brother Pi pretended to be pitiful.

"Boss Shen, I think your dogs are performing for money, aren't they?"

"Street-performing?!" Shen Luo himself was shocked—seriously, these guys even knew how to street-perform?

He turned his head and sure enough, someone had put a disposable plastic bowl on the ground, and inside were a few coins—ten cents, fifty cents, one yuan. People were clearly just doing it for fun.

"When we throw in money, they get even happier and perform harder. I think they're street-performing, right?" said a guy who looked like a college student.

What else could Shen Luo say? He felt like that was exactly what Brother Pi and the others meant!

Shen Luo walked over, picked up the bowl, stuffed all the money into his pocket, and said, "What, am I starving you guys or not giving you water? You actually went out and performed for money? All of it's confiscated!"
