A woman brought a litter of golden-retriever puppies to
the veterinary clinic for inoculations and worming. She loved the
puppies so much that she couldn't keep from remarking about their cute
habits.
As the look-alike pups squirmed over and under one
another in their box, the vet realized it would be difficult to tell the
treated ones from the rest. He turned on the water faucet, wet his
fingers, and moistened each dog's head when he had finished.
After the fourth puppy, he noticed his talkative client
had grown silent. As he sprinkled the last pup's head, the woman leaned
forward and whispered, "I never realized they had to be baptized."
