POODLE ON SAFARI


A wealthy old lady decides to go on a photo safari in Africa, taking her faithful poodle named Cuddles, along for the company.One day the poodle notices a leopard heading rapidly in her direction with the intention of having lunch.

Noticing some bones on the ground close by, the poodle immediately settles down to chew on the bones with her back to the approaching cat.

Just as the leopard is about to leap, the old poodle exclaims loudly, “Boy, that was one delicious leopard! I wonder if there are any more around here.”

Hearing this, the young leopard halts his attack in mid-strike, a look of terror comes over him and he slinks away into the trees.

Meanwhile, a monkey who had been watching the whole scene from a nearby tree, figures he can put this knowledge to good use.  So he catches up with the leopard, spills the beans and strikes a deal for himself with the leopard.  The young leopard is furious at being made a fool of and says, “Here, monkey, hop on my back and see what’s going to happen to that conniving canine!”

Now, the old poodle sees the leopard coming with the monkey on his back and thinks, “What am I going to do now?”, but instead of running, the dog sits down with her back to her attackers, pretending she hasn’t seen them yet, and just when they get close enough to hear, the old poodle says: “Where’s that darn monkey? I sent him off an hour ago to bring me another leopard!”
