Three dogs were sitting in the waiting room at the
vet's, discussing why they were there. The first dog,
a poodle, told his woeful tale.
"My owners bought the great new sports car with
leather seats. They took me for a ride in it one day,
and I was so excited, I couldn't help myself. I wet
all over the backseat. I'm here to be put down." The
other two dogs nodded sympatheticly, then the second,
a Kelpie, explained his situation.
"A brand new Persian rug had just been placed in the
loungeroom, and it was very expensive. My owners made
a big fuss of it, when it came. Then, once when I was
in the room, I had an incredible urge to roll all over
it. So I did, and ended up getting quite a bit of my
fur over the mat. My owners were very annoyed, and
sent me here to be put to sleep." The other two dogs
nodded, and the first dog asked the third, a German
Shepard, what he was there for.
"My owner has this habit of cleaning the house in the
nude, and once when she was cleaning under the sofa, I
just couldn't help myself. I jumped on and had the
ride of my life." The other dogs tut-tutted.
"So you're here to be put down too?" he asked. The
Shepard shook his head.
"No, just to get my nails clipped!"
