Joke
An effusive client brought a litter of golden-retriever puppies to my veterinary clinic for inoculations and worming.
She loved them so much, she couldn’t keep from remarking at their cute habits.
As the look-alike pups squirmed over and under one another in their box, I realized it would be difficult to tell the treated ones  from the rest.
I turned on the water faucet, wet my fingers, and moistened each dog’s head when I had finished.
After the fourth puppy, I noticed my hitherto talkative client had grown silent.
As I sprinkled the last pup’s head, the woman leaned forward and whispered,” I never realized they had to be baptized.”
