A man going into a
small shop sees a sign on the door saying "Beware of the Dog". Going in a
bit cautiously, he sees a Greyhound asleep in the middle of the floor.
"Hi" he says to the shopkeeper, " is that the dog you're warning about?"
"Yes, that's him alright" says the shopkeeper.
"Well he doesn't look dangerous, does he?" replied the man. "Why do you
have that sign up?"
"Before I put that sign up" said the shopkeeper, "people kept tripping
over him".
Some race horses
staying in a stable. One of them starts to boast about his track record.
"In the last 15 races, I've won 8 of them!"
Another horse breaks in, "Well in the last 27 races, I've won 19!!"
"Oh that's good, but in the last 36 races, I've won 28!", says another,
flicking his tail. At this point, they notice that a Greyhound has been
sitting there listening.
"I don't mean to boast," says the Greyhound, "but in MY last 90 races,
I've won 88 of them!" The horses are clearly amazed.
"Wow!" says one, after a hushed silence. "A talking dog."
