Vets
Dead dog
A man rushed into the vet's office carrying his dog, screaming for help.
The vet rushed him back to an examination room and had him put his dog down on the examination table. The vet examined the still, limp body and after a few moments, told the man that regrettably his dog was dead.
The man, clearly agitated and not willing to accept this, demanded a second opinion.
The vet went into the back room and came out with a cat. He put the cat down next to the dog's body. The cat sniffed the body, and slowly walked from head to tail, poking and sniffing as it went. Finally it looked up at the vet and meowed.
The vet looked at the man and said, "I'm sorry, but the cat thinks that your dog is dead too."
The man was still unwilling to accept that his dog is dead. So the vet brought in a black Labrador. The Labrador sniffed the body, slowly walked from head to tail, and finally looked at the vet and barked.
The vet looked at the man and said, "I'm sorry, but the Labrador thinks that your dog is dead too."
The man, finally resigned to the diagnosis, thanked the vet and asked how much he owed. The vet answered, "$650."
"$650 to tell me my dog is dead?" exclaimed the man.
"Well," the vet replied. "I would only have charged you £350 for my initial diagnosis. The additional £300 was for the cat scan and lab tests."
