The Dead Duck

[WCURoverD90]

A woman brought a very limp duck into a veterinary surgeon. As she

laid her pet on the table, the vet pulled out his stethoscope and

listened to the bird's chest. After a moment or two, the vet shook his

head sadly and said,"I'm sorry, but your duck Cuddles has passed away."

The distressed owner wailed,"Are you sure?"

“Yes, I am sure,” he replied. “The duck is dead."

“How can you be so sure, " she protested. "I mean, you haven't done

anything to treat him or anything. He might be in a coma or something."

The vet rolled his eyes, turned around and left the room, and returned

a few moments later with a black Labrador retriever As the duck’s

owner looked on in amazement, the dog stood on his hind legs, put his

front paws upon the examination table and sniffed the duck from top

to bottom. He then looked at the vet with sad eyes and shook his head.

The vet patted the dog on the head, took it out or the room, and

returned a few moments later with an old cat. The cat jumped up on the

table and sniffed delicately at the bird from head to toe. The cat sat back

on its haunches, shook its head, meowed softly and strolled out of the

room.

The vet looked at the women and said,"I'm sorry; but as I said, this is

most definitely, 100% certifiably, a dead duck."

Then the vet turned to his computer terminal, hit a few keys and

produced a bill, which he handed to the women. The duck's owner,

still in shock, took the bill.

“$1500.00." she cried, “$1500.00 just to tell me my duck is dead !!”

The vet shrugged, "I'm sorry. If you'd taken my word for it, the bill

would have been $20.00, but with the Lab report, and the Cat scan,

it's $1500.00
