My favourite dog joke of all time.

Man goes to the cinema to watch Lord of The Rings.

In front of him he notices a man sitting in the front row with his faithful dog sat on the seat next to him.

About halfway into the film he notices this man's dog actually appears to be responding to what's happening in the film

During the exciting parts the dogs ears are up and his tail is wagging. At the scary moments the dogs ears are firmly folded back and his tail is between his legs.

The man spends most of the rest of film watching this amazing dog as he goes through every emotion in response to what's happening on the big screen.

When the film is over he decides he must speak to the dog's owner and ask him about his incredible canine.

He corners him in the lobby.

"Excuse me sir. I couldn't help but notice your dog actually seemed to be watching and enjoying that film. I find that amazing."

"Aye, it's amazing alright." says the dog's owner. "He really didn't like the book at all."

lol

This is dog-related, but it has lightbulbs in common with Kerriebaby's post that started this thread. I can't believe it hasn't been posted before, but I can't find it in search under 'lightbulb'. Tell me if anyone has seen it on the site before and if so I'll remove it.

How many dogs does it take to change a light bulb?

1. Golden Retriever: The sun is shining, the day is young, we've got our whole lives ahead of us, and you're inside worrying about a stupid burned out bulb?


2. Border Collie: Just one. And then I'll replace any wiring that's not up to code.


3. Dachshund: You know I can't reach that stupid lamp!


4. Rottweiler: Make me.


5. Boxer: Who cares? I can still play with my squeaky toys in the dark.


6. Lab: Oh, me, me!!!!! Pleeeeeeeeeze let me change the light bulb! Can I? Can I? Huh? Huh? Huh? Can I? Pleeeeeeeeeze, please, please, please!


7. German Shepherd: I'll change it as soon as I've led these people from the dark, check to make sure I haven't missed any, and make just one more perimeter patrol to see that no one has tried to take advantage of the situation.


8. Jack Russell Terrier: I'll just pop it in while I'm bouncing off the walls and furniture.


9. Old English Sheep Dog: Light bulb? I'm sorry, but I don't see a light bulb!


10. Cocker Spaniel: Why change it? I can still pee on the carpet in the dark.


11. Chihuahua: Yo quiero Taco Bulb. Or "We don't need no stinking light bulb."


12. Greyhound: It isn't moving. Who cares?


13. Australian Shepherd: First, I'll put all the light bulbs in a little circle...


14. Poodle: I'll just blow in the Border Collie's ear and he'll do it. By the time he finishes rewiring the house, my nails will be dry.
