< A man runs into the vet's office carrying his dog, screaming for
help.
< The vet rushes him back to an examination room and has him put his

dog
< down on the examination table. The vet examines the still, limp
body
< and after a few moments, tells the man that his dog, regrettably,
is
< dead. The man, clearly agitated and not willing to accept this,
< demands a second opinion. The vet goes into the back room and
comes
< out with a cat and puts the cat down next to the dog's body. The
cat
< sniffs the body, walks from head to tail, poking and sniffing the
< dog's body and finally looks at the vet and meows.
<
< The vet looks at the man and says, "I'm sorry, but the cat thinks
that
< you're dog is dead, too." The man is still unwilling to accept
that
< his dog is dead. So the vet brings in a black lab, the lab sniffs
the
< body, walks from head to tail, and finally looks at the vet and
barks.
< The vet looks at the man and says, "I'm sorry, but the lab thinks
your
< dog is dead too."
<
< The man, finally resigned to the diagnosis, thanks the vet and
asks
< how much he owes. The vet answers, "$650."
<
< "$650 to tell me my dog is dead?" exclaims the man.
<
< "Well," the vet replies, "I would only have charged you $50 for my

< initial diagnosis. The additional $600 was for the cat scan and
lab
< tests."
