Although adorable, and often quite feisty, you wouldn't expect to see a Chihuahua or Yorkshire Terrier patrolling the streets.

In April 2025, he helped provide security at the Weifang International Kite Festival, and since then, he has gained quite a following.

During the patrol, the corgi couldn't resist the urge when he spotted and grabbed a child's delicious sausage from their hand.
Fuzai and his trainer tried to find the mother and child after the patrol, but had no luck.
Back at the station, Fuzai received stern treatment. His trainer posted a sincere apology online and said that stricter food refusal would follow.
