I walked into a pub last night to see a dog playing poker with a gang of blokes.Bloody hell that's got to be the cleverest dog i've ever seen
You must be joking said one of the men every time he gets a good hand he wags his bloody tail.
You remind me of this, originally posted here (I now discover) eight years ago...
A guy is driving through Hartlepool and sees a sign in front of a house
that reads, "Talking Dog For Sale." He rings the bell to inquire and
the owner tells him the dog is in the backyard. The guy goes into the
backyard and sees a Labrador Retriever sitting there.
"You talk?" he asks.
"Yep," the Lab replies.
"So, what's your story?"
The Lab looks up and says, "Well, I discovered that I could talk when I
was pretty young. I wanted to help the government, so I told MI5
about my gift, and in no time at all they had me jetting from country
to country, sitting in rooms with spies and world leaders, because no
one figured a dog would be eavesdropping. I was one of their most
valuable spies for eight years running."
"But the jetting around really tired me out, and I knew I wasn't
getting any younger so I decided to settle down. I signed up for a job
at the airport to do some undercover security wandering near suspicious
characters and listen in. I uncovered some incredible dealings and was
awarded a batch of medals."
"I got married, had a mess of puppies, and now I'm just retired."
The guy is amazed. He goes back in and asks the owner what he wants for
the dog.
"Ten quid," the guy says.
"Ten quid? This dog is amazing. Why on earth are you selling him so
cheap?"
"Because he's a liar. He never did any of that stuff."
