A legendary story about why dogs lift one leg to pee.

It is said that thousands of years ago, both male and female dogs were squatting when urinating.

It was not until the Tang Dynasty that the situation changed. ...

Everyone has heard of Emperor Taizong! His old man keeps a pair of Beijing dogs. On one occasion, Emperor Taizong went to Huashan to worship heaven and brought this pair to. ...

Halfway through the sacrifice, the bitch suddenly felt anxious and ran behind a tree to solve it.

This is a very disrespectful act when offering sacrifices to heaven, which angered the jade emperor.

The Jade Emperor ordered Lei Gong to hit a thunder, and the thunder hit the tree just right. The tree fell and killed the bitch. The male dog was very scared when he saw it. ...

From then on, every time the male dog urinates under the tree, he will put out a foot and push it hard against the tree.

In case the tree falls by itself. ...

Biography of Mr. Guigu

There is a ghost valley temple next to Qingxi Mountain and Shenlai Peak, and there is a big grave behind it. It is said that it is the place where Mr. Guigu's parents are buried together.

According to legend, a man and a woman love each other, but they are separated by family discord. Years later, the man died of grief and was buried by the roadside. That woman carries water from the grave every day and can't help but stop crying in front of it.

Soon, she saw a seedling growing on the grave, so he watered the seedling every day and slowly grew a new seedling. She cut the ripe millet home and cooked the rice. Unexpectedly, after eating this millet, I felt sick and vomited for several days. Please ask the doctor to feel your pulse. She is pregnant.

The family couldn't help her and kicked her out of the house.

She built a straw house and stood on her own feet.

I conceived in October and gave birth to a son. I thought I was pregnant after eating millet in the grave, so I named the child Guigu.

Guigu is very smart and will be good at reading when he grows up. His mother sent him to a local private school in the hope that he could grow into a great man. He is also her only hope.

Guigu is very filial and listens to her mother's arrangement. I visited several famous teachers, studied many art books, and made great progress in Taoism through the guidance of immortals.

Guigu said to his mother: I don't like politics, but I only like to save people by medical methods.

Mom said that it doesn't matter. Anyway, I am old, and the future depends on you.

Guigu went up the mountain to collect medicine and treat people around him. When the poor get sick, they send medicine to treat them, which is very respected by the villagers. They all call him Guiguzi or Mr Guiguzi.

Mr. Guigu's medical ethics and skills are getting better and better, and the treatment of some intractable diseases is very magical.

People who come to see a doctor every day sit in a room. There are many patients, but he is equally meticulous. My mother was very happy when she saw it. Although she is old, she also helps her son weigh, make medicine and take medicine.

One day, a county magistrate came and arrested Mr. Guigu with an iron drill.

Mr. Guigu said: I didn't commit a crime.

The messenger said: I arrested you to treat the princess!

Mr. Guigu said: You see, so many patients are waiting. It's not too late to go after you get well.

The policeman said with a crooked face: the princess's illness is important and can't wait!

I can't say anything. I sent someone to take Mr. Guigu away.

The police were afraid that Mr. Guigu would escape, so they put him in prison and detained him, and then reported to the county magistrate.

It turned out that the county master had scabies and impetigo on his leg, which was extremely itchy. He has been treated by many famous doctors for more than a year and still hasn't improved. The princess played for the officers for ten days, and if she couldn't find a good doctor, she played 50 boards. The poor man is often beaten. I heard that Mr. Guigu's medical skill is amazing this time, and I can't wait to catch Mr. Guigu.

The princess was very happy after hearing the report of the officers, and shouted: Take Mr. Guigu to see a doctor quickly.

Send someone to pick someone up in the cell, but Mr. Guigu is treating the prisoner. If a poor man is angry, he will whip Mr. Ghost Valley.

Mr. Guigu seized the policeman's hand with a whip and resisted angrily. The policeman said with a smile, although I am an ant in front of the princess, I am a dragon outside the yamen.

Mr. Guigu is helpless because he is just an ordinary person.

Mr. Guigu looked at the princess's sick leg and said slowly, Your leg can't be solved by medicine.

The county magistrate was disappointed again, and his face was full of anger: according to you, my leg can't be cured?

Mr. Guigu said unhurriedly: Well, there is only one way to change legs.

The magistrate's face softened and said, Go to the prison and pick a strong man's leg for me.

Mr. Guigu said: All the prisoners in the prison are pale and weak, and all of them are sick, so they are not worthy to change their master's legs.

The county magistrate touched his head and said, well, whose leg is suitable?

Mr. Guigu pointed to the policeman and said, This poor brother has the best legs.

Hearing this, the policeman fell to his knees with a bang and said, Sir, my legs are useful!

The county magistrate said with a smile, isn't it more useful for your leg to become my leg? Cut it off!

Mr. Guigu sawed off the sick leg of the princess first, then sawed off the poor leg and put it on the princess. After several rubs, the princess stood up and looked at her new leg, which no longer hurt. I'm so happy.

Mr. Guigu said: I dare ask the princess, what is the crime of the people in prison?

The county magistrate said: two of them are murderers and arsonists, and the rest are trivial matters.

Mr. Guigu said: Don't talk about the two murderers and arsonists, and be lenient with the rest. Otherwise, sir, your leg will get sick and there is no cure. Even spread to the whole body, hopeless. . Put it down, accumulate some virtue.

The princess dug her head and said, well, listen to your husband.

People are lying on the ground crying. The princess said, Sir, I'd better cure the poor man's leg. He must run for me. You can find a leg among prisoners.

Mr. Guigu said, Look at him, too. However, those prisoners' legs don't fit. Find a strong dog.

Another busy messenger brought a rhubarb dog.

Mr. Guigu sawed off the dog's leg, connected it to the police, and rubbed it a few times. The police stood up, ran a few steps, jumped a few times and acted freely. He took a look at his trouser legs. Although no one has beautiful legs, he walks and runs more flexibly than human legs. He also smiled.

Mr. Guigu asked again, sir, what about the prisoners in the prison?

The county magistrate said to the police, let's go. Everyone has been released except those two murderers.

The policeman said, ok. Then he ran to deal with it.

Seeing rhubarb dog howling, Mr. Guigu said: A dog is also a life, and it also has its full-time job. Can't destroy this natural thing.

Mr. Guigu grabbed a lot of yellow mud, folded it into the shape of a dog's leg and put it on the dog. After a pat, the yellow dog ran away and looked back at Mr. Guigu. So later, in order to take care of the mud leg, the dog had to raise the leg.

When Mr. Guigu came home, his mother had died.

Mr. Guigu buried his mother safely, and according to his mother's teachings, he buried her with his father who died young.

Later, Mr. Guigu made great efforts to study strategy, art of war and mathematics. In his later years, he trained a large number of all-powerful figures, such as Sun Bin and Pang Juan, Su Qin and Zhang Yi. Later generations respectfully called him Guiguzi.

There is a story similar to the above. The hero is a living Buddha, who played in TV series.

More scientifically, puppies, regardless of gender, are squatting when urinating. By eight or nine months, male dogs will start to lift their legs to pee. Some people say that the male dog lifts his leg to pee in order to attract the female dog to show his gender. This may be reasonable, but I believe in two statements: one is Mark Theory. Dogs are afraid of getting lost when they go out of town, so they lift their legs and pee in some obvious places to make a mark. The second is the theory of enclosure. Peeing on your own urine in a certain area is to tell other dogs that this is its territory and idle dogs are not allowed to enter. All the bitches in this territory are his, and other dogs are not allowed to expect anything casually. The higher you pee, the more places you have, which means your sphere of influence is bigger, so you should lift your legs hard.

There is also a small question: does the dog lift his left leg or his right leg when urinating? It is observed that most people lift their left legs, and a few lift their right legs, which may be "right-handed". Whether it is the left leg or the right leg, one thing is certain, that is, only one leg can be lifted. If the left and right legs are raised at the same time, someone must be pulling its tail.

Because dogs pee in different ways, people introduce this action into human life. It is said that there is a dance called "dog peeing", which I have never seen before, so it is hard to talk nonsense. But there is a kind of "dog pee" food that I have eaten. That was six years ago. A group of us went to Qinghai Lake to play. On the streets of Xining, we saw a kind of cake called "dog peeing", which was thin, yellow and crisp, with eggs and tiny green crumbs. It is said to be a local wild vegetable. Although the name of this kind of cake is not very pleasant to hear, it tastes crisp and delicious, and there is a faint smell of wild vegetables. Why is it called this name? Because when making this kind of cake, it must be evenly oiled along the edge of the pot and spread around the paddock, and the local stoves are generally built very high, and the cake makers often tilt their legs to grease it, hence the name "dog urine".
