shaggy dog story

This shaggy dog story is just a particularly weird example of the new wealth of modern China.

在印证当代中国新生财富的诸多例子中，这条长毛狗的故事只是特别怪异的一个。

Adapted from Jack London's wilderness-adventure novel, The Call of the Wild tells the shaggy dog story of a domestic St Bernard/ Scotch Collie cross called Buck who is taken to the frozen north during the Klondike Gold Rush.

改编自杰克·伦敦的同名野外冒险小说，《野性的呼唤》讲述了一条毛发杂乱的家养圣伯纳犬和苏格兰牧羊犬混种狗，巴克的故事，它在克朗代克淘金热期间被带到了寒冷的北方。

Initially, the farmer had posted his close encounter on a Chinese website, together with a shaggy dog story about how he had captured the alien while setting traps for rabbits.

最初，这个农民在某网站上贴出了他如何近距离接触外星人的事迹，同时还写了自己如何在设置捕兔器陷阱时抓到外星人的经过，故事非常冗长杂乱。
