When taking Dabai to St. John's, Qin Shiou understood why many people in the town had moved away from the small island, because the traffic here was so inconvenient!

When he went to St. John's before, he was basically fine. When Winnie gave birth, he was anxious to death, but Winnie secretly told him that it was just acting, so he was not in a hurry when he was on the boat. ¤,

But this time when Dabai was sick, Qin Shiou was really anxious, so he felt that the island was so far away from the land, and it took him so long to reach the city port.

Xiong Da was even more anxious. He was squatting on the deck, pulling on the guardrail with his thick bear claws, looking helplessly at the city of St. Johns looming in the distance, his fat face was full of sorrow...

This is the first time it went to St. Johns, because it doesn't like to take a boat, but this time Dabai was sick. When Qin Shiou took Dabai aboard, Xiong Da had to climb aboard no matter what, and even stayed with him at the beginning of the boat. By Dabai's side.

After watching the city of St. Johns for a while, Xiong Da will run back to the cabin from the deck, and when he finds Xiong Da, he will yell softly twice, as if comforting him, and seems to be speeding up the progress of his boat, and then he will run to the deck again , looking anxiously at the land.

Friendship lasts forever, and Qin Shiou was deeply moved. True friendship can transcend the distance between species, just like Xiong Da and Dabai.

After the ship docked at the port, Bigfoot Reyek was waiting on the pier with a van. He was startled when he saw Xiong Da disembark, and said, "Oh, God, no wonder you want me to drive a van over here, I thought you were transporting seafood, but it turned out to be Shanzhen."

Qin Shiou smiled bitterly and said, "Sorry buddy, I'm not in the mood to joke now. One of my children is sick, and I have to take it to the pet hospital."

Reyek is very reliable. He was the driver himself, and he had seen the route in advance. When Qin Shiou and Wei Ni got into the car with the big white bear, they immediately stepped on the accelerator and rushed out. Except for a few red lights, the whole journey was smooth and went straight to the 'Celtic Animal Hospital'.

Celtic Animal Hospital is the oldest and most authoritative veterinary hospital in St. Johns. Founded in 1952, it is the first professional canine and feline hospital in Newfoundland. It is responsible for companion animals in the St. Johns area. Entry-exit medical examination work.

The building area of ​​this animal hospital is more than 5,000 square meters. It has specialist consultation rooms and general consultation rooms, physical examination and immunization rooms, operating rooms, inpatient foster care department, laboratory department, injection room, pharmacy, pet product supermarket, pet grooming department and other departments.

compared to human hospitals. The working process of animal hospitals in Canada is more reasonable. The workload of veterinarians is relatively heavy. Most of the sick animals sent to the clinic can be diagnosed and treated on the same day. Because these animal hospitals are private hospitals, the pressure of competition is high, and doctors and nurses have to pay more , you have to work harder.

so,

In the St. Johns area, many veterinarians are better paid than human doctors. This has also led to the prosperity of the veterinary industry. Some young people who have a good impression of small animals will give priority to the veterinary medicine industry when they enter university.

Reyek helped to register an expert number, and Qin Shiou and others arrived at the hospital not long after. It was their turn to enter the examination room.

Seeing Winnie come in with a possum in her arms, the middle-aged doctor laughed and said, "It's rare to see such a little guy as a pet. May I ask what happened to it?"

"My child suddenly vomited some foam and undigested food, and he was also very weak." Said. Winnie put Dabai on the doctor's desk, and Dabai looked around curiously, trying to get up. She stroked it quickly, and Dabai rubbed her head against her hand as if to comfort her, then he got down obediently.

Seeing this scene, the well-informed middle-aged doctor was also taken aback, and said: "Oh, don't worry, let me take a look. In addition, I must praise, your child is so well-behaved, he is not like North America. A mouse is as smart as a Labrador."

"We also have two lovely Labradors." Winnie laughed.

"Tiger and Leopard, little stars in the pet world, am I right?" said the middle-aged doctor, "Mr. Qin, Miss Wei Ni."

Qin Shiou and Wei Ni nodded. It is not surprising that veterinarians know them. Huzi and Leopard are well-deserved stars in their industry.

The middle-aged doctor looked at Dabai's pupils, forced it to open its mouth to look at its mouth, and listened to its whole body with a stethoscope.

Dabai obviously didn't like this kind of encounter. When the doctor put away the stethoscope, he immediately turned over deftly, quickly jumped off the table and hid behind Qin Shiou.

The middle-aged doctor smiled and said, "I have to express my doubts, Miss Wei Ni, looking at your pet's current actions, it is not weak at all."

Winnie said anxiously: "No, doctor, it was really in a bad state before, and it got better after my husband fed it some warm water."

The doctor reassured her not to worry, saying that it was just a joke, and then he made an order for the two of them to have a detailed examination for Dabai, and come back to him when they get the results.

Qin Shiou's impression of veterinarians was that of the veterinary station in his hometown, where there were only some horrible needles and tubes and various veterinary medicines.

This time he came to the Celtic Animal Hospital, which opened his eyes. The nurse asked him if he would have a detailed systemic examination. Qin Shiou said yes, and then the nurse gave him a bill for 1,400 Canadian dollars!

In Canada, where almost all the people are included in the medical insurance, the inspection fee of 1,400 yuan is not low, but Qin Shiou didn't care, he paid by card, and then gave Dabai the inspection.

No wonder it costs so much money. The inspection process is very complicated. The machines used include endoscopes, automatic biochemical analyzers, X-ray fluoroscopy systems, animal electrocardiographs, and comprehensive dental treatment machines. Later, Doppler color ultrasound was even used. Instruments, digital X-ray imaging systems, Qin Shiou has never seen these things in human hospitals.

The examination results were sent to the doctor by the nurse. After working for a long time, Qin Shiou and Wei Ni returned to the consultation room with Dabai who was dying.

Winnie hugged Dabai distressedly, Qin Shiou regretted bringing him to the hospital, mother Xipi, don't Dabai be tossed to death here, looking at the way it is now, possums have been tossed a lot.

Dabai couldn't be tossed about for nothing, so after entering the consulting room, Qin Shiou asked anxiously: "Doctor, what's the matter with my child?"

The doctor didn't answer directly. He put down a stack of test sheets and said, "Do you guys remember what I said when we first met—it's rare to raise North American possums as pets nowadays."

Weini and Qin Shiou nodded, and the doctor said, "The reason is that the North American possum is a short-lived animal. In the wild, their lifespan is two years. In a comfortable home, it is three to three years at most. Four years."

"According to the laboratory data, there is nothing wrong with this opossum, but it is old. Maybe, its life has entered the countdown..." (To be continued...)
