A woman brought a limp duck into a veterinary clinic . As she laid her pet on the table, the vet pulled out his stethoscope and listened to the birds chest .
After a moment or two , the vet shook his head and sadly said " I`m sorry your duck has passed away ".
The distressed woman wailed "Are you sure?" . .
" Yes I am sure. Your duck is dead", replied the vet ..
"How can you be sure" ? she protested . " I mean you have`nt 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 ducks owner looked on with 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 him 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 the computer terminal , hit a few keys and produced a bill , which he handed to the woman . The ducks 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 " . . . .
HA that is good. Yes, I liked it, the bride liked it, and I'm sure when we send it to friends, their going to like it too.
I'm sure our vet is going to like it.
A good one.
This is so funny. Thanks for sharing.
