: A Baptist preacher and his wife decided they needed a dog. Ever
: mindful of the congregation, they knew the dog must also be Baptist.
: They visited an expensive kennel and explained their needs to the
: manager, who assured them he had just the dog for them. The dog was
: produced and the manager said, "Fetch the Bible." The dog bounded to
: the bookshelf, scrutinized the books, located the Bible, and brought
: it to the manager. The manager then said "Find Psalms 23". The dog,
: showing marvelous dexterity with his paws, leafed thru the Bible,
: found the correct passage, and pointed to it with his paw. Duly
: impressed, the couple purchased the dog. That evening a group of
: parishioners came to visit. The preacher and his wife began to show
: off the dog, having him locate several Bible verses. The visitors were
: amazed. Finally, one man asked, "Can he do normal dog tricks too?"
: "Let's see" said the preacher. Pointing his finger at the dog, he
: commanded "Heel!" The dog immediately jumped up on a chair, placed
: one paw on the preacher's forehead and began to howl. The preacher
: turned to his wife and exclaimed "Good grief, we've bought a
: Pentecostal dog!"
