A man was amazed to see a dog buying meat for his owmer in a butcher's because not only did he appear to check the quality of the meat, but he noticed that the butcher short-changed him and growled until he was given the right money. Intrigued, the man followed the dog from the shop and saw him help an old lady across the road with hershopping. The man then followed the dog to his owner's house and couldn't believe his eyes when the dog stood up on his hind legs to ring the doodbell. The dog's owner came to the door ,took the shopping from the dog and kicked him into the garden. The man watching was horrified and called out to the owner, "I can't believe you kicked that amazing dog - he does your shopping, checks your change and even helps old ladies across the road!` 

"I know,` the owner replied, "but that's the third time this week he's forgotten his keys.`
