Woman brings a Limp Duck to the Vet / Dogs in Cars / Dog Food Pic / Binky



Remain Calm Adopt a Dog
Today’s Joke:



A woman brought a very limp duck into a veterinarian’s office. As she laid her pet on the table, the vet pulled out his stethoscope and listened to the bird's chest.  After a moment or two, the vet shook his head sadly and said; "I'm sorry, mam, your duck is dead."  

The distressed woman wailed; "Are  you sure?"  "Yes, I am sure. The duck is dead." replied the vet.  "How can you be so sure?" she protested. "I mean you haven't done any testing on him or anything. He might just be in a coma or something."  The vet rolled his eyes, turned around, and left the room.  

He returned a few minutes later with a black Labrador retriever. As the duck's owner looked on in amazement, the dog stood on his hind legs, put his front paws on the examination table, and  sniffed the duck from top to bottom.  He then looked up at the vet with sad eyes and shook his head.  The vet patted the dog on the head and took it out of the room.  

A few minutes later he returned with a cat. The cat jumped on the table and also delicately sniffed the bird from head to foot. The cat sat back on its haunches, shook its head, meowed softly, and strolled out of the room.  The vet looked at the woman and said; "I'm sorry, but as I said, this is most definitely, 100% certifiably, a dead duck."  

The vet turned to his computer terminal, hit a few keys and produced a bill, which he handed to the woman. The duck's owner, still in shock, took the bill.   "$150!" she cried; "$150 just to tell me my duck is dead!?"  The vet shrugged; "I'm sorry. If you had just taken my word for it, the bill would have been $20, but.....with the Lab Report and the Cat Scan, it's now $150.

Difference between insurance company actuary and mafia actuary / Ricochet



Remain Calm Adopt a Dog
Today’s Joke:

What's the difference between an insurance company actuary and a mafia actuary?

An insurance company actuary can tell you how many people will die this year; a mafia actuary can name them.

Great video that was shared with me. The story is about Ricochet a dog raised to be a service dog finding a new purpose in life via surfing.

Missing Binky



Remain Calm Adopt a Dog

Today's Joke:




A blind man with a seeing eye dog at his side walks into a grocery store. The man walks to the middle of the store, picks up the dog by the tail, and starts swinging the dog around in circles over his head.

The store manager, who has seen all this, thinks this is quite strange. So, he decides to find out what's going on. The store manager approaches the blind man swinging the dog and says, "Pardon me. May I help you with something."

The blind man says, "No thanks. I'm just looking around."

The first dog my wife and I adopted was named Binky after the Life in Hell comic strip by Matt Groenig (creator of The Simpsons). She was a Brittany Spaniel / Lab mix. She was very smart, loving and I miss her dearly...That was my inspiration for today's drawing.

Binky
