日前，中国刑事警察学院的警犬技术学院通过官方网站发布《淘汰犬出售公告》，表示将以竞拍的形式出售已考核淘汰的受训犬。该条公告一出，吸引了众多网友围观。

 

A police training academy in northeastern Liaoning province is looking for permanent homes for over 50 canines² that failed the exam to join the official canine¹ team, where they would work as sniffer dogs to detect drugs and bombs, among other contraband³. The animals are scheduled to be auctioned⁴ online, allowing prospective⁵ bidders⁶ to adopt a new pet as long as they pledge a lifetime of commitment and care toward the animals.

辽宁省的一所警察培训学院正在为50多只警犬队落选狗狗寻找归宿，警犬可以担任嗅探犬，探测毒品和炸弹等违禁品。这些狗狗将在网上被拍卖，竞购人将有机会领养一只新宠物，只要他们对狗狗许下关爱一生的承诺。

 

据悉，此次拍卖的淘汰犬一共有54只，包括德牧、马犬等品种，落选原因五花八门，有年龄超标的、胆子太小的、兴奋性低、不立耳等等。

 

The 54 dogs, most of them German Shepherds, that did not qualify to work with the police team will be auctioned on July 7, according to an announcement made by the Criminal Investigation⁷ Police University of China in Shenyang on Tuesday. The animals were deemed unfit for the force for not meeting the police’s stringent⁸ size, strength, personality, or age requirements for canine members, or due to poor performance during the selection process.

根据位于沈阳的中国刑警学院6月22日发布的公告，这54只不符合警犬标准的狗狗将于7月7日进行拍卖，其中大部分是德国牧羊犬。它们因不符合警犬严格的体型、力量、性格或年龄要求，或在挑选过程中表现不佳而被认为不适合加入警队。

 

所有狗狗起价均为200元人民币，每次出价加价为50元及其整数倍。警犬技术学院对竞购人提出了严格的责任要求，参与竞价并获得淘汰犬人需做书面承诺。

 

According to the auction’s rules, the starting bid for each dog is 200 yuan ($30) but participants must first watch a video about their favored animal before being able to bid. They are also required to take them home the same day and sign a written commitment stating that they will follow the local regulations and will not resell the dogs or transfer ownership.

根据拍卖规则，每只狗的起拍价为200元，竞购人必须先观看一段狗狗的视频，然后才能出价。竞购人还必须在当天将狗带回家，并签署书面承诺，声明他们将遵守当地法规，不转售或转让狗狗的所有权。

 

"(The owner must) treat the adopted dog kindly⁹ and feed and manage it properly until its natural death, and assume full responsibility if they fail to fulfill¹⁰ this promise," the announcement reads.

公告中写道：“（养犬人须）善待认养犬只，对其进行妥当饲养管理，直至自然死亡，如未履行此承诺承担全部责任。”
