China News Service reporter Li Aiping
Sit, lie down, stand... Wearing a police uniform, Yu Keying holds a rubber ball in her hand and gives orders to the 6-year-old police dog "Simba". A minute later, with the help of his colleagues, "Simba" smelled dangerous goods behind the car and signaled to Yu Keying that he had "discovered the situation."

After the training, Yu Keying was affectionate with "Simba", and her colleagues laughed and said, "It's not much different from how a mother treats her child." She slowly sent "Simba" into the kennel and took out a ham sausage as a reward.

On the 30th, at the police dog base of the Dongsheng District Branch of the Ordos City Public Security Bureau in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, Yu Keying told reporters that she has been with police dogs for 13 years since graduating from college. “Now police dogs have become an indispensable part of my life. They They are my relatives, even my children.”

As a police dog trainer, Yu Keying was injured on the thigh by a dog when she was a child. "After that, whenever someone mentioned the dog, I felt uncomfortable all over."
But fate took a twist. Yu Keying, who studied taekwondo at Inner Mongolia Sports Vocational College, was specially recruited by the Dongsheng District Public Security Bureau to join the public security team in 2010, and has been associated with police dogs ever since. Now, she tries not to say the word "dog" when speaking.
Yu Keying first came into contact with police dogs when she was trained by a master. She was very envious of the actions the police dogs made under the command of the master. Because she loved this job, she soon began to train police dogs independently.

The first police dog she trained was "Mary" who was just six months old. At first, "Mary" was disobedient and occasionally acted coquettishly and lost her temper. But after a month, as the relationship between humans and animals deepened, "Basically when the command is given, it immediately knows what to do."

In a sense, Yu Keying, who had just started working, regarded "Mary" as her best friend and child. Occasionally when I am in a bad mood, I will talk to it, "When I finish talking, I will feel better."
In the company of "Mary", the most difficult thing for Yu Keying to accept was its accidental injury. "A piece of glass cut Mary's leg on the training ground. When we went to the pet doctor for treatment, the doctor gave her too much anesthesia. She didn't wake up for a long time. At that moment, I completely collapsed." Speaking of this scene, Yu Ke Ying's eyes were filled with tears.
In the 13 years she has been with police dogs, Yu Keying has trained a total of 4 police dogs. But she was passionately devoted to "Mary", "It is as unforgettable as first love. I bathe it, and when it has a fever or cold, I accompany it to the pet hospital." "Because police dogs cannot eat salty food, during the Spring Festival, did I ask my mother to wrap it up? Salt dumplings for the festival.”
Two years ago, Yu Keying felt a lot of reluctance in her heart when she saw the "Mary" whom she had raised honorably retired. What followed was that the pet doctor recently gave the final notice about "Mary's" condition. "At that moment, I really wanted to cry without tears."
"The doctor told me that her (referring to 'Mary') 13-year-old age is equivalent to a person living for more than 80 years. When I heard this, I felt a lot relieved." Yu Keying told reporters that now she thinks about many things whenever she has the opportunity. Accompany "Mary" so that she can receive the warmth of her family in her last days.
In the process of accompanying police dogs for 13 years, Yu Keying said that she and police dogs have been deeply intertwined. If possible, she is willing to only work in this profession for the rest of her life. “Being able to live in harmony with police dogs is a kind of saying. Unexplainable happiness." (End)
