The first thing after Tang Mingyue got up, she ran to see the little milk dog. It slept very sweetly and ate milk once a night. It was quite good. After breakfast, she made some milk powder and fed it to drink.
After it peed, Xiao En and I took it out together.
The two of them were going to buy milk powder for the puppy today and take it for a checkup. There was no pet shop in the town, so they had to go to the nearest prosperous county town, which took more than an hour to drive.
They followed the navigation and were directed directly to a large supermarket. After getting off the car, Tang Mingyue put the little puppy into her bag. It was well-fed and well-behaved and only wanted to sleep.
After entering the supermarket, the two went to the milk powder section and were dumbfounded.
"How...how to choose?" Tang Mingyue asked Xiao En, looking at the dazzling milk powder shelves.
How did Xiao En know? After thinking about it, he said: "Ask the salesperson."
There was a salesperson in each goods area. He shouted, and a middle-aged woman came over and asked enthusiastically what brand of milk powder they wanted to buy.
"Is there any difference?" Tang Mingyue asked humbly.
"There are some differences. Different brands have different formulas. Each brand of milk powder has its own unique features. For example, some add DHA, some focus on ARA, some add prebiotics, and various nutrients.
The proportions are also different." The salesman talked eloquently.
Xiao En:……
Tang Mingyue:......
Both faces were confused.
What are DHA, ARA and prebiotics?
As soon as the salesperson saw that they didn't understand, he knew they were new parents. He smiled and said, "It's normal for you young parents to not understand this. Choosing milk powder is very important for your children. Not only should you choose a suitable brand, but you should also choose according to your age group."
Different stages of milk powder. Babies aged 0-6 months should choose the first-stage infant formula milk powder with lower protein content. Babies aged 6-12 months should choose the second-stage infant formula milk powder with higher protein content. Those over 1 year old should choose infant formula.
Three stages of milk powder. How old is your baby?"
Xiao En:……
Tang Mingyue:......
They don't know exactly how old the puppy is.
"Well... we're not sure either." Tang Mingyue felt that it was impolite to not talk to her all the time, so she replied.
Seller:……
I have seen parents with big hearts, but I have never seen parents with such big hearts that they can’t even figure out how old their children are.
"We brought it here, how about you help us take a look?" Tang Mingyue saw that the salesperson seemed to understand very well, and asked for help.
Seller:……
Did you bring the child? Where is the child? Why didn't she see it? She didn't even know when the child was lost.
Just as she was thinking this, Tang Mingyue had already opened the bag and took out the puppy.
"Look at this little thing. How big is it?"
Seller:??
A question mark on his face.
This is a dog.
After a long time of commotion, these young people came to buy milk powder for the dog.
No wonder I don’t know anything when I ask three questions.
The salesman himself laughed first: "You didn't explain clearly, so I misunderstood. You have to go to a pet store to buy milk powder for dogs. We don't sell dog milk powder here."
"Is there anyone selling dog milk powder?" Tang Mingyue was surprised.
"Of course, you can find out when you go to the pet store and ask." The salesperson affirmed.
Tang Mingyue gained more knowledge and thanked her: "Sister, thank you."
"You're welcome." The salesman waved his hand and said, "Put it back quickly. Pets are not allowed in the supermarket."
Tang Mingyue nodded and hurriedly put the puppy back into the bag.
Although they had to go to a pet store to buy dog milk powder, they still had to buy a can of baby milk powder and a new bottle to return to Qiaqia when they got home.
Fortunately, Xiao En remembered what the milk powder box Tang Mingyue brought back last night looked like. With the help of the salesperson, they quickly found the brand, selected a milk bottle, and left quickly.
After walking out of the supermarket, the two of them started laughing. This was really a mistake.
Then they went to a pet hospital. The hospital was not small. It was a comprehensive service hospital. They could bathe and beautify the pet, see a doctor, and provide foster care. It also sold pet supplies and had a complete business.
The two of them caught the attention of the front desk as soon as they entered. After all, they were handsome men and beautiful women, and they couldn't be ignored even if they wanted to.
"Welcome, what do you need?" the front desk greeted them warmly.
"We want to do a check-up on it." Tang Mingyue said and took out the puppy again.
The receptionist knew it was a hybrid dog at first glance. She looked at it carefully and asked, "Did you pick this up?"
"Yes, so I want to do a check-up on it." Tang Mingyue said.
The receptionist nodded clearly: "Then I will take you to see the doctor first and let the doctor write an order."
The two followed the front desk to see the pet doctor. The doctor had just examined a cat and saw them coming in with a puppy in their arms. He started asking: "How old is it? What breed? What are the symptoms?"
"Dr. Li, they picked this up and wanted to do a health check." The front desk explained.
The doctor yelled, stretched out his hand and said, "Let me take a look first."
Tang Mingyue handed the little puppy to the doctor.
The doctor directly put the puppy on the table, did a simple physical examination, and then judged: "It should be a cross between an Alaskan dog and a Samoyed, about more than a month old. Is it normal to eat, sleep, and defecate?"
"
"It's all normal. I can sleep especially well." Tang Mingyue replied.
The doctor nodded: "She should be healthy. Let's do another biochemical test. Canine distemper, microscopic diseases, etc. can all be detected."
Neither Tang Mingyue nor Xiao En had any objections.
The doctor wrote the order, Xiao En went to pay the money, the doctor drew the puppy's blood, sent it to the laboratory for testing, and then waited for the results.
The results came out very quickly. Half an hour later, the doctor told them that the puppy was healthy, but that it was too small to feed, and gave them some precautions.
The two of them made a note of it humbly and didn't bother to go to other places to buy things, so they bought all the supplies here, which made the receptionist even smile.
She just took a peek at the watch on Xiao En's wrist. Although she didn't know how much it cost, she knew the brand and it all started with at least seven figures.
After struggling all morning, it was already noon when the two returned home with the puppy. The puppy was hungry again and began to grunt. Tang Mingyue volunteered to feed the dog and asked Xiao En to cook.
Xiao En went to the kitchen and asked her to mess around outside.
Tang Mingyue made up half a bottle of goat milk powder for dogs, and then put it on the newly purchased changing pad. After a while, the little dog started to poop and pee, and after a while it fell asleep again.
"Hey." Tang Mingyue thought it was funny. When she saw it falling asleep, she put it on a small mat and took out the dirty changing pad and threw it away.
