A lady enters a vet surgery with a limp duck in her arms.
The vet examines the duck, takes out his stethoscope and listens intently and announces to the lady that the duck is indeed dead.
The lady is very upset at this announcement, and pleads with the vet to re-examine her duck, he listens again but is very sorry the duck is absolutely dead.
Not satisfied, the lady asks him again 'maybe he's in a coma or just fainted or something'.
The vet looks for a moment at the lady, leaves and room and returns with a black labrador. The labrador places it's front paws on the table, sniffs the duck from stem to stern and then walks sadly and calmly from the room shaking his head.
The vet leaves the room again and returns with a ginger tom cat, the cat walks around the duck lying on the table, sniffs it all over, then jumps off the table and stalks from the room slowly shaking his head from side to side.
See, says the vet, your duck is dead. He then hands the bill to the lady, it readys $150! She is astounded at the high price and explodes at the vet.
He calmly explains if she'd accepted his prognosis it would have been $40, but as she wanted more proof, the lab report and the cat scan cost an extra $110!!!!!!!!!!!
