While out walking one day, a young boy met a redneck riding along with a dog and sheep and began a conversation. "Hey, cool dog you got there. Mind if I speak to him?" asked the boy.
"Stupid kid," said the redneck. "Dogs don't talk."
The little boy ignored the redneck and talked to the dog anyway. "Hey dog, how's it going?"
"Doin‚ all right," replied the dog to the redneck's amazement.
"Is this guy your owner?" asked the boy.
"Yep," replied the dog.
"How does he treat you?" asked the boy.
"Real good. He walks me twice a day, feeds me great food, and takes me to the lake once a week to play." With that, the boy asked if he could talk to the redneck‚s horse.
"Stupid kid, horses don't talk," replied the redneck. The little boy ignored the redneck and talked to the horse, anyway. "Hey horse, how‚s it going?"
"Cool," replied the horse.
"Is this your owner?" asked the boy pointing to the redneck.
"Yep."
"How‚s he treat you?" asked the boy.
"Pretty good, thanks for asking," replied the horse. "He rides me regularly, brushes me down often, and keeps me in a shed to protect me." At this point, the redneck was totally amazed that the boy could talk to his dog and horse.
"Mind if I talk to your sheep?" asked the boy.
"The sheep's a liar," answered the redneck.
