Subject: Vet Charges

A man brought a very limp dog into the veterinary clinic.

As he laid the dog on the table, the doctor pulled out his stethoscope,

placing the receptor on the dog's chest. After a moment or two, the vet

shook his head sadly and said, " I'm sorry, but your dog has passed away. "

" What? " screamed the man. " How can you tell? You haven't done any testing on

him or anything. I want another opinion! "

With that, the vet turned and left the room. In a few moments, he returned

with a Labrador Retriever. The Retriever went right to work, checking the

poor dead dog out thoroughly with his nose. After a considerable amount of

sniffing, the Retriever sadly shook his head and said, " Bark " (meaning dead

as a door nail).

The veterinarian then took the Labrador out and returned in a few moments

with a cat, which also carefully sniffed out the poor dog on the table. As

had his predecessors, the cat sadly shook his head and said, " Meow " (meaning

he's history). He then jumped off the table and ran out of the room.

The veterinarian handed the man a bill for $600. The dog's owner went

postal. " $600! Just to tell me my dog is dead? This is outrageous!! " The

vet shook his head sadly and explained. " If you had taken my word for it,

the charge would have been $50, but with the Lab work and the cat

scan........... "
