A DOG JOKE

POST # 408





To finish off my blogposts for the month of May, I thought I would end with a joke, that Dora-dog happened to hear, from one of her four-legged friends while we were out for a walk the other day.   I will have to keep this one in mind to tell people in the future.     OK, so here goes.



TALKING DOG FOR SALE

A guy is driving around the back woods of Montana and he sees a sign in front of a broken down shanty-style house:  'TALKING DOG FOR SALE'

He rings the bell and the owner appears and tells him the dog is in the backyard.

The guy goes into the backyard and sees a nice looking Labrador retriever sitting there.
'You talk?' he asks.
'Yep', the Lab replies.

After the guy recovers from the shock of hearing a dog talk, he says,
'So, what's your story?

The Lab looks up and says, 'Well, I discovered that I could talk when I was pretty young.
I wanted to help the government so... I told the CIA.

In no time at all, they had me jetting from country to country, sitting in rooms with spies and world leaders, because no one figured a dog would be eavesdropping.  I was one of their most valuable spies for eight years running...

But the jetting around really tired me out, and I knew I wasn't getting and younger so I decided to settle down.  I signed up for a job at the airport to do some undercover security, wandering near suspicious characters and listening in.

I uncovered some incredible dealings and was awarded a bunch of medals.

I got married, had a mess of puppies, and now I'm just retired.'

The guy is amazed.  He goes back in the house and asks the owner how much he wants for the dog.

'Ten dollars,' the guy says.

'Ten dollars?  This dog is amazing!  Why on earth are you selling him so cheap?'

'Because he is a bullshitter.  He's never been out of the yard!'


grateful for every breath,

Paul
The Thoughtful Wanderer
