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 is, regrettably dead. The man clearly agitated and not willing to accept this, demands a second opinion. The vet goes in the back room and comes out with a cat which he puts 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 the dog is dead too." The man is still unwilling to accept that his dog is dead and demands further examination. The vet brings in a black Labrador. 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 is finally resigned to the diagnosis, thanks the vet and says "How much do I owe you?" The vet answers,"$650". "$650 to tell me my dog is dead?" exclaimed 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."
