One day,Fred and Pete go out hunting and Fred tells Pete,
"My dog Riley is the smartest ,best hunting dog ever.I say "go get em"and he goes into the reeds,counts the ducks,and comes back and tells me how many there are by barking"
Pete says"your full of it!There is no dog that smart!"
To prove his claim,Fred sends Riley out into the reeds,and Riley comes back A few minutes later and barks 6 times...A few seconds later,6 ducks go fliing off .Fred sends Riley out again,thistime Riley comes back and barks four times,and four ducks fly away..
Pete says"I have to have that dog,iI will give you $5000 for him."
Fred says "Sold!" and gives Pete the dog..
A month goes by and fred runs into Pete and asks"So,how is my old Riley working out for you?"
To which Pete replies,"I had to get rid of him..I took him out hunting,sent him into the reeds like you showed me,only when he came back,he jumped on me and started swinging this stick he had in his mouth at me!I thought he was Rabid or something!"
Fred says"YOU IDIOT,He was triing to tell you that there were more ducks than you could shake a stick at!!!"
