A Second Opinion

A Second OpinionA man runs into the vet’s office carrying his dog, screaming forhelp. The vet rushes him back to an examination room and has himput his dog down on the examination table. The vet examines thestill, limp body and after a few moments tells the man that hisdog, regrettably, is dead. The man, clearly agitated and notwilling to accept this, demands a second opinion.The vet goes into the back room and comes out with a cat and putsthe 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 andfinally looks at the vet and meows. The vet looks at the man andsays, „I’m sorry, but the cat thinks that your dog is dead too.“The man is still unwilling to accept that his dog is dead.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 thinksyour dog is dead too.“The man, finally resigned to the diagnosis, thanks the vet andasks how much he owes. 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 formy initial diagnosis. The additional $600 was for the cat scanand lab tests.“
