Sharp-Witted
A man , who was already in the butcher shop ,finished his purchase and noticed the dog. The butcher braced his foot against the counter and asked the dog what it wanted today.
The dog put his paw on the rectangle glass case in front of the beef ,and the butcher said ," How many pounds ?" The dog barked twice, so the butcher carved two pounds beef and made a package. He then said ," Anything else ?" The dog pointed to the pork chops ,and the butcher said , " How many" The dog barked four times to communicate the message ,and the butcher wrapped up the four pork chops.
The dog walked around behind the counter , so the butcher could get at the purse and take out the appropriate amount of money before tying the tow packages of meat around the dog "s neck.
The man,who had been watching all of this ,decided to follow the dog . The dog walked for several blocks and then walked up to a house where it began to scratch the door.
As the owner opened the door , the man called to the owner ," that is a really smart dog you have there ."
"He is not really all that smart," the owner retorted ," this is the second time this week he neglected to take the key with him."
