SOMETHING AMUSING ON A RANDOM TUESDAY...and if you can't take a joke...you are at the wrong blog!

A man had heard that a certain bar kept excellent beer and had a talking dog
So he went round to the bar


He called for a beer - and it was excellent
So he asked the owner about the dog


"Sure I've got a talking dog" the owner said
"Can I see him?" said the man
"Sure - he's round the back" said the owner


The man went round the back and there was a very old and rather dirty dog
The man looked at the dog and said out loud "ah well, this dog does not look as though he can speak - I'lll go and complain!"
"Why complain?" said the dog
"Wow, you can speak" said the man
"Of course" said the dog, in a disparaging manner
"Where - how - did you learn to speak?" said the man - who was now rather flustered as he realised he was conversing with a dog
"Well" said the dog - "I was once a police dog and learnt how to speak from my handlers. I was then seconded to the Florida (change the town if needed) Undercover Police. I would walk around, listen to all the criminals - go back to the Police Station and report to my handler. Arrests increased by 300% and crime became a thing of the past"
"That's fantast....." said the man, who was interrupted by the dog.
"I've not finished" the dog said, with a little growl
"I was then transferred to the FBI and then the CIA - working in so many countries that I have lost count! - But now I am retired"


The man went back into the bar and said to the owner "that's a fantastic speaking dog - is he for sale?"
The owner immediately said yes
"How much?" asked the man
"$20" came the reply
"Why, oh why, is the dog so cheap - after all he can speak and the stories he tells are so interesting?"
"Because" responded the owner "he talks a load of crap!"
