The second day of the competition arrived. Li Youran brought Leopard Ball to the scene early in the morning and took the time to conduct warm-up training on its adaptability to the venue and equipment.
Leopard Ball is in good condition and very excited.
Qiu Guoqiang also came early, and the two met and practiced together on the field.
At nine o'clock in the morning, the main members of the Wolf Dog Association entered the venue and the meeting continued.
After yesterday's game, the audience already had their own goals to pursue, and their emotions were even higher. There were endless sounds of horns and cheers in the stands.
The referee came on stage, made a silent gesture, and then explained that today is the last day of the competition. The items are practical subjects, with a total of four sub-categories:
Tracking, identification, crossing obstacles, chasing and biting. The first three sub-items are worth fifteen points each, and the last one is worth twenty-five points, totaling seventy points.
Li Youran and Qiu Guoqiang each led their dogs and stood opposite the podium. The group of contestants today was very deserted, with only twenty excellent wolf dogs left for the final competition.
In the first tracking, the staff first brought two wooden dumbbells to the nose of the contestant, who sniffed them, then left, took a zigzag route, took the two wooden dumbbells 100 meters away, and hid them in scattered places.
Several cardboard boxes on the ground are searched by wolf dogs. Those who complete the task satisfactorily will receive full marks. If one error is made, two points will be deducted. If the error is made more than four times, zero points will be awarded for this project.
The contestants are required to complete the task first, and the dog owner can follow them eight meters away, but they are not allowed to give any prompts.
The first one to appear was contestant No. 009 Black Tiger. After sniffing and identifying each other, as required, the dog owner and the wolf dog turned around and turned their backs to the field. After the staff hid the wooden dumbbells, Black Tiger started tracking.
He was lucky at first. He sniffed the smell and searched all the way. He accurately found the first wooden dumbbell hidden under the carton and handed it to the owner. This move won a round of applause.
But the second wooden dumbbell was in trouble. He flipped two cartons in succession, but they were both empty. The dog owner's face suddenly became ugly. Fortunately, Black Tiger found the target in the third carton. Finally, he got ten
one cent.
Other players came on stage one after another, but the score difference was uneven. Two players were eliminated with zero points, and the highest score was 13 points.
It was Leopard Ball's turn. With his keen sense of smell and high fighting spirit, he found both targets at once and got full marks.
"Okay. Leopard Ball."
“That’s awesome!”
"This nose is so good that it is no worse than an active police dog."
The audience cheered.
No. 042 Agni appeared on the scene and performed equally well, completing the mission in one go.
"Fire, you are the best."
"Don't even look at what my father does. He is a famous meritorious dog. How can his genetics be so different?"
Fans of Agni also cheered loudly.
Lake No. 058 also performed well, with full marks. The audience naturally gave it applause without hesitation.
After all twenty players completed the competition, the scores were tallied. In this event, five players received full marks.
At this time, Leopard Ball's total score has reached fourteenth, Lake has risen to tenth, and Agni is still first.
The second sub-item is object identification, which still tests the player's sense of smell, but is more difficult than the first item because smell interference is added.
The staff will hold medical gauze stained with the same odor as the target object, hand it to the wolf dog for sniffing, and then ask the dog owner to take the wolf dog to the identification area. There are eight plastic boxes, only one of which is the target object. The other seven are
They are interference sources composed of strong-smelling substances such as chili peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, gasoline, perfume, and alcohol.
This project not only tests the olfactory sensitivity of wolf dogs, but also tests their ability to withstand odor stimulation. The time limit is three minutes, and three points will be deducted for each error found, and zero points will be awarded if it is too late.
At the beginning of the competition, the contestants were in a state of embarrassment. Some were sneezing repeatedly, running in circles, barking and refusing to get close to the plastic box, and even jumping up and kicking the box over. The dog owners were greeted and scolded.
, the shouting in the stands, the whole scene was chaotic.
Fortunately, the staff were of good quality and quickly maintained order, guided the audience, and quickly returned the overturned boxes to their places, so the scene calmed down.
When it was Leopard Ball's turn, Li Youran patted it twice on the neck and said:
"Leopard Ball, it's up to you. Remember, you are the best."
Encouraged, Leopard Ball raised his head, excited, and headed towards the competition area under the guidance of Li Youran.
First, I sniffed the gauze in the hands of the staff, then came to the identification area and started looking for the target object.
Sneeze, sneeze, the strong smell stimulated it, making its body tremble and it sneezed twice in a row.
"Leopard Ball, hold on." Li Youran called.
Leopard Ball suppressed the discomfort in his nasal cavity and tried hard to find the target in the mess of strange smells. Twenty seconds and forty seconds passed, but he still couldn't find it.
Leopard Ball fans in the stands became anxious. Just as another section of the audience started to make sarcastic remarks, Leopard Ball dragged out the seventh plastic box with his mouth and raised his head and shouted twice.
The staff stepped forward to confirm, then raised the green sign indicating correctness, and the referee immediately reported a full score.
Whoosh, whoop, whoop, applause.
Leopard Ball returned to Li Youran, sticking out his tongue excitedly. The latter rubbed its neck with both hands to encourage it.
The identification event was very difficult, and many contestants capsized, making the Leopard Ball with perfect scores even more dazzling.
It was Agni's turn to appear, and he still showed the excellent qualities and rich experience of the descendants of meritorious dogs. He found the target smell source in forty-five seconds. He did not disappoint the fans who supported him.
Lake's performance in this event was slightly inferior, but it was still quite difficult. He found a mistake once and scored 12 points.
At the end of this project, only three contestants got full marks.
At this time, Leopard Ball's total score has reached ninth place, Lake has risen to eighth place, and Agni's number one position remains unchanged.
The third event is the highlight, crossing obstacles.
The obstacle is composed of a high jump frame, two 1.8-meter-high wall panels and a fish scale board. The dog owner or handler guides the wolf dog to cross it at once without traction. Mistakes in the middle will
Points will be deducted based on the number of times.
This event tests the players' jumping ability, body coordination, balance and skills. It is also very entertaining and attracts cheers from the audience.
The contestants began to appear in order. The height of the high jump was set at a moderate level, and they could basically be jumped over in one jump. The 1.8-meter-high wall panel was a bit difficult, and many contestants had to climb over twice before passing.
The fish scale board is adjusted to 65 degrees. Because the surface texture is relatively smooth, it is not easy to grab. As a result, many players have encountered obstacles here, climbing and sliding once or twice, and screamed in panic.
Dog owners shouted loudly from the side to encourage their dogs to face the difficulties.
The audience also shouted the names of the wolf dogs and cheered them on.
But most of the players performed poorly at this level.
