The Rise of the Ranch King

Chapter 6 6. Saving Wayne the Big Dog

On the way back in the afternoon, I went to a pet rescue center.

He discovered that places like the city of Helena were called pet adoption centers, and in remote river valley towns, they became rescue stations.

Just like its name, after entering, I found a dozen dogs of different types chasing a basketball in the yard. The dusty scene reminded Lin Feng of his childhood life.

There are also a few practicing tree climbing, and the base of the large redwood tree in the yard is almost bald.

Of course, there are also some kept in cages, such as a grinning Rottweiler, which startled Lin Feng when he walked past it!

It feels more like a dog market here because it's so run-down.

Strangely, when he focused his attention on the dogs, he seemed to be able to hear their heartbeats.

Lin Feng thought it was a hallucination, probably because he didn't sleep well last night.

The person who received him was a young girl who was very happy to learn that Lin Feng wanted to adopt a dog.

It can be seen that she is very dedicated and knows the origin and living habits of each dog.

Lin Feng wants to select a sick dog and bring it to the small world for experimentation. Those with good spirits are not included in the selection, which means that the more the dogs want to express themselves, the more they will be eliminated.

The world is so cruel, no matter how hard we try, it will be in vain if we go in the wrong direction.

After walking around, the little girl was puzzled. It seemed to her that she had already introduced the best dogs in the entire rescue station, but the man in front of her was not interested at all.

"What's wrong with it? It looks very lethargic."

Lin Feng asked, pointing to a ball of "fluff" in the corner of the yard.

At first I really thought it was a ball of fluff, until it raised its head and looked around and realized it was a fluffy dog.

The girl looked a little sad, "His name is Wayne. He is a six-month-old Caucasian dog. He had been in a serious car accident before and one of his legs was lame."

The Caucasian breed should be a large dog. The one in the yard looks obviously stunted, about the same size as a small native dog.

Lin Feng pointed at Wayne, "That's it, I'll adopt him."

The girl was surprised, "Are you sure? Wayne will be euthanized the day after tomorrow."

"Euthanasia? Why?"

"According to the regulations of the rescue center, stray dogs that have not been adopted for twenty days will be euthanized, because the place is small and there is no way to keep them living for a long time."

"It has been there for four weeks and has long since expired, and it is difficult to adopt out because of its lameness."

It turns out that this kind of organization also has to consider costs, and it will go bankrupt sooner or later if it blindly shows charity.

Perhaps the girl was afraid that she would regret it, so she quickly asked: "Sir, is the adoption you just mentioned true?"

Lin Feng nodded again, "Sure and sure, I have a ranch, and letting Wayne live there is definitely better than going to heaven to report."

The girl was very emotional, her eyes were red, and she was about to cry.

"Wayne~Wayne~"

She called softly, and the Caucasus slowly came over with its lame legs upon hearing the sound.

Lin Feng thought to himself that if the small world could make the little guy lively and active, it might really be able to cure his father's uremia.

When Wayne arrived, he squatted on the ground across the fence and looked at the two of them. His eyes were very sad. Maybe he knew that he wouldn't live long. All animals are spiritual.

"You can touch it, its fur is very soft." The girl smiled sweetly.

Lin Feng stretched out his hand. It was a normal thing at first, but the moment his hand touched Wayne's forehead, he instinctively withdrew it as if he was shocked by an electric shock.

The girl quickly explained, "It's static electricity. Wayne's hair is very dry."

Lin Feng knew very well that it was not static electricity. He knew the feeling of being shocked by static electricity. It's very strange, there is an indescribable force flowing in my chest, right at the location of the weathervane brand. When he looked up at Wayne again, he immediately made a judgment about the little guy.

His consciousness told him that this was a Caucasian cub, originally from Russia, and a super-large dog with high loyalty. The joint edema of the hind legs was obvious, the front legs were bent and trembling, and he suffered from joint rheumatism and severe rickets.

Lin Feng noticed that Wayne could lift his legs up but did not dare to step on the ground. His eyes were dull and he did not like walking.

"Does Wayne suffer from rickets?" Lin Feng asked tentatively.

The girl shook her head and couldn't tell because the rescue station did not have professional veterinarians and they were not good at this.

Lin Feng continued to stare at Wayne with concentration, and this time he heard his heartbeat that was fast and slow. It seemed that he would not survive long even if he was not "euthanized". He was a poor little guy.

He turned his attention to the group of dogs fighting in the distance. He could also see some information, but it was not as comprehensive as Wayne's. It seemed that he needed to touch it first.

I don't know when I had this magical ability. Maybe there was something hidden in the birthmark, which was inadvertently activated by Castella's red-hot iron.

It seems that I made the right choice to take over the ranch, otherwise there would be no "wonders" like Small World happening.

Lin Feng was very excited. He couldn't wait to go to the livestock auction in the town and use his magical ability to detect the breeding cattle there. It was as exciting as opening a transparent blind box.

"gentlemen?"

The girl interrupted his sweet dream.

Next to go through the adoption procedures, Lin Feng was taken to the backyard, which is the first contact area between the adopter and the dog to be adopted.

After hearing that Wayne had been adopted, all the staff at the rescue center came, curious about who took him away.

"I hope you can treat him well. Wayne is very pitiful." The stationmaster said sadly: "I picked up Wayne. He was run over by a large truck. Fortunately, he was strong enough to survive. Little Guy spends most of his time curled up in a corner sleeping with no friends or family.”

"We don't want to euthanize any dog, but you have seen the situation at the rescue station. There is no way."

Lin Feng nodded and said he would take good care of Wayne.

"Are you married?" the girl from before said suddenly.

Lin Feng was stunned. He was so handsome that he would be confessed to by a woman in front of her face.

The girl immediately explained that this was a necessary process for adoption and that an adopter survey was required.

What a waste of excitement.

In addition to marital status, you also need to inquire about the living environment and a series of tedious questions, including whether there is a fence in the yard, how high the fence is, how many people in the family usually take care of pets, etc.

Lin Feng frowned and took out his mobile phone, showed them the photos of the ranch and the wooden house, and asked: "What do you think? I think it's okay."

The webmaster looked at it and smiled bitterly, "It's quite acceptable, sir."

The whole process was a bit like facing the scrutiny of your future mother-in-law on a blind date. After almost twenty minutes, you could finally leave with Wayne.

Not long after leaving the rescue station, Lin Feng opened the small world and took the dog into it.

Wayne was very lethargic. He curled up into a ball and fell asleep again without even glancing at the surrounding environment. Lin Feng carried the bucket and wanted it to take a few licks, but the little guy was indifferent.

There was also raw meat prepared long ago in the small world, and he was not going to feed it dog food.

There are abundant food sources in the grassland. As long as you are not lazy, you will definitely not starve to death.

If Wayne survives, he will be needed to take care of the ranch in the future. Eating raw meat will stimulate his wild nature.

After settling down the dog, Lin Feng had to go to the livestock market in the town, eager to know how magical his new ability was.

As an original pastoral area, the cattle and sheep market in River Valley Town is famous throughout the United States. Even ranchers from Alberta, Canada come here to buy and sell livestock, and it is usually very lively all day long.
