Silly Dog! How Could You Do That?

A butcher is in his shop busily serving customers when all of a sudden he notices a dog

He shoos him away, but later he notices the dog is back again.

So he goes over to the dog and notices he has a note in his mouth

He takes the note and it reads: “I need 12 sausages and a leg of lamb, please

The dog has money in his mouth as well.” The butcher looks inside and, lo and behold, he finds the money for the order there

So he takes the money, and puts the sausages and lamb in a bag, placing it in the dog's mouth

The butcher is very impressed, and since it's close to closing time, he decides to shut up shop and follow the dog.

So off he goes

The dog is walking down the street, when he comes to an intersection

The dog puts down the bag, jumps up and presses the button for the walk signal

Then he waits patiently, bag in mouth, for the lights to turn

They do, and he walks across the road, with the butcher following him all the way.

The dog then comes to a bus stop and starts looking at the timetable

The butcher is in awe at this stage

The dog checks out the times and then sits on one of the seats provided

Along comes a bus

The dog walks around the front, looks at the number, and goes back to his seat

Another bus comes, again the dog goes and looks at the number, notices it's the right bus and climbs on.

The butcher, now open-mouthed in shock, follows him onto the bus.

The bus travels through the town and out into the suburbs, the dog looking at the scenery

Eventually he gets up, and moves to the front of the bus

He stands on two back paws and pushes the button to stop the bus

Then he gets off, his groceries still in his mouth.

Well, dog and butcher are walking along the road, and then the dog turns into a house

He walks up the path, and drops the groceries on the step

Then he walks back down the path, takes a big run, and throws himself against the door

He goes back down the path, runs up to the door and throws himself against it again.

There's no answer at the house, so the dog goes back down the path, jumps up on a narrow wall, and walks along the perimeter of the garden

He gets to an open window, barks several times, walks back, jumps off, and waits at the door.

The butcher watches as a big guy opens the door, and starts laying into the dog, yelling at him and swearing at him.

The butcher runs up and stops the guy

“What in the world are you doing? The dog is a genius

He could be on TV, for heavens sake!”

To which the guy responds: “Clever?! This is the second time this week that he's forgotten his key.”
