In Tennessee, a guy sees a sign in front of a house: "Talking Dog for
Sale." He rings the bell and the owner tells him the dog is in the
backyard. The guy goes into the backyard and sees a black mutt just
sitting there. "You talk?" he asks. "Yep," the mutt replies. "So, what's
your story?" The mutt looks up and says, "Well, I discovered this gift
pretty young and I wanted to help the government, so I told the CIA
about my gift, and in no time 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 eight years running. The jetting around really tired me out, and I
knew I wasn't getting any younger and wanted to settle down. So I signed
up for a job at the airport to do some undercover security work, mostly
wandering near suspicious characters and listening in. I uncovered some
incredible dealings there and was awarded a batch of medals. "Had a
wife, 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. The owner
says, "Ten dollars." The guy says, "This dog is amazing. Why on earth
are you selling him, so cheap?" The owner replies, "He's such a liar. He
didn't do any of that shit."
