Dead Duck
A woman brought a very limp duck into a veterinary
surgeon. As she lay
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 so sorry, your pet has passed away."The distressed owner wailed, "Are you sure? "Yes, I'm
sure. The duck
is dead," he replied. "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 moments 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 at the vet with sad eyes and
shook his head.
The vet patted the dog and took it out and returned a
few moments later
with a beautiful cat. The cat jumped up on the table
and also sniffed
the bird from its beak to its tail and back again.
The cat sat back on
its haunches, shook its head, meowed softly, jumped
down 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." Then
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'd taken my word
for it, the bill
would have been $20. But what with the Lab Report and
the Cat Scan, it
all adds up."
