Dog Follies

"License"

During a county-wide drive to round up all unlicensed
dogs, a patrolman signaled a car to pull over to the
curb.

When the driver asked why he had been stopped,
the officer pointed to the big dog sitting on the seat
beside him.

"Does your dog have a license?" he asked.

"Oh, no," the man said, "He doesn't need one; I
always do the driving."

"Dog Follies"

I had worked late, and my Labrador was so overjoyed
to see me arrive home that he jumped up just as I
leaned down. Our heads collided, and I sported an
impressive shiner for several weeks.

I had to repeat frequently to co-workers and friends
how I came by it, and one day on the elevator, a
secretary whom I hadn't seen for some time looked
at my black eye and exclaimed,

"My goodness, what happened to you?"

"The dog did it," I wearily replied.

A man standing next to us looked over at me and
said knowingly, "Ahh, you must own a boxer."
