Two Show Dogs



Two neighbors - a large, burly man and a small, timid man - shared one
thing in common.  They both had show dogs that they prized highly.  The
burly man owned a large St. Bernard and the timid man appropriately owned a
yipping little Chihuahua.  

One day, the St. Bernard came up missing.  His owner was in great distress.
This had never happened before.  During his search and worrying, the large
man was suprised to answer his door to find his small neighbor standing on
the porch.  

"Sorry to bother you ssssir!", the smaller man nervously studdered.

"What do you want!!!", the larger man snapped at his neighbor.

"Well, I'm sorry to say, my dog killed your dog."

"What??????"  The St. Bernard's owner couldn't beleive what he was hearing.
He was well familiar with the neighbor's Chihuahua.  He new that
"Ferdinand", or any other Chihuahua (or pack thereof), could not have
killed his massive "Avalanche".  That confused the larger man so much that
he had forgotten his anger and stress, and he actually calmed down enough
that his neighbor showed signs of relief.  Wondering what his neighbor was
trying to tell him, he inquired further.

"What do you mean when you say that your dog killed my Avalanche?"

"Just what I said. my Ferdinand killed your Avalanche just a few minutes
ago."

"So, exactly how do you propose that your scrawny little dog killed my St.
Bernard?"

"Well sir, you see.........er.....um....your dog choked to death on my
dog!"
