"Three Dogs"
Three dogs were gathered outside the local meat
market salivating over the side of beef in the window;
a banker's dog, a criminal's dog, and a farmer's dog.
They were discussing ways to get their paws on the
side of beef.
First, the banker's dog says, "Why don't we go in and
offer to pay for the side of beef on an installment plan,
interest rates are low right now and I know I can get
us a good deal."
The criminal's dog says, "No, that would take too
long...why don't we just run in there, you distract him
and I'll grab it and run."
Finally, the farmer's dog says, "I have a better idea.
Why don't we just sit out here and whine ... They'll
give it to us."

"A Smart Dog At The Butcher's"
A man is conversing with his neighborhood butcher,
when a small dog trots in, holding some money in his
mouth. The butcher says, "What'll it be today? Beef?"
The little dog shakes his head.
"How 'bout chicken?" The dog shakes his head 'no' again.
The butcher says, "Chops?" The dog wags his tail wildly.
"Pork chops?" Dog shakes his head.
"Lamb chops?" The tails wags frantically again.
"Okay, lamb chops..." The butcher cuts the meat, takes
the money from the dog's mouth, and puts the wrapped
chops in the dog's mouth, and the little dog trots off.
"That was amazing!" says the man.
"Oh, he comes in here every other day or so," says the
butcher. The man says, "I have to follow that dog and
see where he lives!" He runs out, spots the dog trotting
up the block. He follows him till the dog runs up a flight of
steps to a house, gets on the porch, raises up on his hind
legs, and rings the doorbell with his nose! A man comes
to the door, takes the meat from the dog, then WHACKS
him on his head as he yelps by.
The man watching is outraged. He storms up to the house,
and rings the doorbell. When the dog owner appears, the
man says, "You know, mister- that's absolutely the smartest
dog I've ever seen. He goes to the butcher shop for you,
ORDERS the meat, PAYS for it, BRINGS it home, RINGS
the damn doorbell, and you BEAT HIM?????"
"Yeah," says the man, "That's the third time this week he
forgot his blasted key!"
