The Talking Dog for Sale
A man sees a sign outside a house that reads: “Talking Dog for Sale - $10.” Intrigued, he knocks on the door.
The owner invites him in and points to a dog sitting on the couch.
The man asks the dog, “So, what’s your story?”
The dog looks up and starts speaking:
“Well, I discovered I could talk when I was just a pup. I wanted to help the world, so I joined the CIA. They’d fly me all over the globe. I’d sit in rooms, eavesdrop on top-secret conversations, and report back. No one ever suspected a dog. I was their top agent for years. But after a while, the traveling got to me. I retired, settled down, and now I volunteer reading to kids at the library. Life’s good.”
The man is stunned. He turns to the owner and asks, “Why on earth are you selling this incredible dog for just $10?”
The owner shrugs and replies,
“Because he’s a liar. He didn’t do any of that stuff.”
