A busy butcher notices a dog in his shop and shoos him away. Later, the dog is back again.

Approaching the dog, he sees that the dog has a note in hismouth. The butcher takes the note, and reads, "Can I have 12 sausages and a leg of lamb, please."

In the dog's mouth is a ten dollar bill. The butcher takes the money, puts the sausages,lamb and change in a bag, andplaces it in the dog's mouth. Since it's closing time, the butcher follows the dog.

The dog walks down the street to a crossing where he jumps up and presses the crossing button. The dog waits patiently, bag in mouth. When the lights change he walks across the road, with the butcher following.

At a bus stop, the dog checks out the timetable. The pop-eyed butcher sits watching the dog as they wait for the bus.

Whenever a bus comes the dog walks in front of the bus, looks at the number, and goes back to his seat. Finally the right bus comes. After checking the number the dog climbs aboard. The open-mouthed butcher follows him onto the bus.

The bus travels across town and out to the suburbs. Eventually the dog gets up, moves to the front of the bus, and standing on his hind legs, pushes the button to stop the bus. Groceries still in his mouth, the dog gets off with the butcher following.

They walk down the road until the dog approaches a house. He walks up the path, and drops the groceries on the step. Then he walks back down the path, takes a big run, and throws himself -whap!- against the door. Nothing happens. Again he goes back down the path, takes another run, and throws himself -whap!- against the door. There's still no response at the door, so the dog goes back down the path, jumps up on a narrow wall, and walks along the perimeter of the garden. He gets to a window, and after banging his head against it several times walks back, to wait at the door. The butcher watches as the door opens revealing a big guy who lays into the dog, really yelling at him.

The butcher runs up to intervene. "What the heck are you doing? This dog is a genius. He could be on TV, for God's sake!"

To which the guy responds, "Clever, my eye. This is the second time this week he's forgotten his key!"
