I was so moved by a dog that I cried like a dog

Text/Golden Erin

I have uninstalled Douyin a long time ago, but today my lover showed me a dog with more than 2 million fans on Douyin. After a few videos, I couldn't help but shed tears.

This dog’s name is “Brother Stick” because he likes to pick up sticks and bring them home every time he goes out for a walk. He was originally a stray dog. Not long after the dog owner picked him up, he took him out of Tianjin and lived in London due to work reasons. After that, the dog owner took him to travel to more than 20 countries and even applied for a dog passport for him. , celebrate his birthday with him every year, and take photos with him in front of the landmark buildings in every scenic spot.

Dog owners tell about their travels from the dog’s perspective, about the owner in the dog’s eyes, and about the world in the dog’s eyes. The dog owner said that he does not like to communicate with people, and the dog also likes to be quiet and keep each other company. For the dog owner, this dog has far exceeded the status of a pet, but is a family member. The dog owner will shave Brother Gun and give himself a haircut on the same day. They sleep on the same bed. Brother Gun has the same status as the dog owner. Even the dog owner brushes Brother Gun's teeth every day according to the doctor's instructions.

In addition to Brother Gun and the dog owner, the video shows more beautiful scenery abroad. In a quiet environment, one person and one dog accompany each other, and the world feels warm and quiet.

I don’t know why, but watching Brother Gun stick out his tongue and laughing, watching him travel to various countries, and watching videos of dog owners accompanied by sensational music, I couldn’t stop crying. , there is a place in my heart that feels very warm and touching.

First of all, I have never had a pet that could run around on the ground since I was a child. The ones I could keep were all in cages or swimming in tanks. What impressed me most was when I was a kid and I hugged a kitten from a neighbor’s cat. No matter how much I threw the sofa cushions and glass cups at home to the ground, and how I acted like a spoiled brat, I still gave the cat away without the parents’ consent. Returned to the master's house. Therefore, I can only watch this kind of animal that runs around from a distance, but cannot play with it. I don’t know how to get close to it, let alone how to feed it. I don’t know if it’s because of my childhood unwillingness, but in short, I feel deeply moved in my heart.

Secondly, I think maybe my erotic ability is really too strong, especially when compared with the photo of Brother Gun as a stray dog, I felt like I instantly became a dog’s perspective. I saw his helplessness at a young age, his fragile pity in the wind and rain, and his luck in meeting the dog owner, and from then on, one person and one dog depended on each other. In this dog's eyes, his gratitude and attachment to his owner must be even deeper.

Thirdly, when I think that the life span of dogs is much shorter than that of humans, I feel that this kind of relationship is precious, but I am also afraid that it will disappear one day. The dog owner at that time must be miserable. .

Maybe, it’s because they can travel and live in beautiful scenery, but we haven’t traveled for more than a year, and we cry to death. .

But fortunately, the dog owner is still recording Brother Gun’s life in this way. Perhaps cherishing the present is the truest meaning of life. Because we are afraid of losing, we dare not have it. This may be the most painful regret in life. Hope they both get better and better.

p. s. My wife has a rest today. We had a meal with friends at noon and went for a run together in the afternoon against the sunset. Due to the weather in Beijing in March, I stopped running for half a month. When I resumed running, my pace dropped a lot. But fortunately, in addition to doing abdominal crunches every morning, I have also added one minute of plank support every day. If I stick to it for 20 years, I should be able to get out of the waistline, right? !
