Puppies at the Vet
A client brought a litter of Golden Retriever puppies to the local veterinary clinic for inoculations and worming. As the look-alike pups tumbled over and under one another in their box, the experienced vet realized it would be difficult to tell which had been treated and which hadn’t. So the vet turned on the water tap, wet her fingers and gently moistened each dog’s head as she finished giving it the necessary shots.
After the fourth puppy, the vet noticed her hitherto talkative client had grown silent and was looking rather reverent. As the animal doctor sprinkled the last pup’s head, the owner leaned forward and whispered, “Thank you so much. I hadn’t realised you baptised them, too.”
