The Karate Dog

By HollywoodPet.net | Sun, 23 Dec 2007

A man who traveled a lot decided to get his wife a big dog for protection. At the pet store he looked at all the bigger dogs until finally the salesperson ushered him into a back room. "I have just the dog for you. He is a lot more expensive but I think he is just the dog you need. This is a highly trained watch dog that is one of a kind."

The salesperson opened the room. The man saw a Chihuahua sitting on the floor. The man protested. "This dog can't protect my wife. That little dog couldn't hurt a flea."

"There is more than meets the eye.", the salesman said. "This dog is a martial arts expert. All you have to say is the word, karate", he whispered. "And the dog goes crazy karate chopping and kicking any attacker." The salesman continued to whisper. "Here is the other trick. Stop means go and go means stop. His commands are backwards so no one else will know how to control him."

The salesman held up a cardboard box. "Karate the box!" The Chihuahua immediately chopped and kicked the cardboard box all over the room. "Go, Go!", the salesman yelled. Immediately the little dog stopped. The same thing happened with their wooden office chair. The little dog leaped into action and karate chopped the chair and kicked it until it flew all over the room. The man was impressed and paid the very high price for the dog.

When he got home, his wife wouldn't even look at the dog when she found out the fortune he had paid. "He is a karate expert, I am telling you", said the man. His wife looked at the tiny crate and began to laugh. She finally looked at the little dog's face and burst into tears of laughter. "You are a fool!" she said. The man stormed out of the house. The woman opened the crate and shook her head as she looked at the dog. "Karate my foot!", she said. The Chihuahua sprang into action. The woman yelled, "Stop, Stop."
