A Very Patient Pooch
(Originally in English)
There was a barber in a developing country who had a little
shed at the roadside to cut hair, and a certain man used to
come in regularly for haircuts. One day he noticed that a dog
was always sitting underneath, near the chair where the
customers sat for their haircuts. So the man asked the
barber, "Is that your dog?" And the barber replied, "No, he
always comes every day. It's not my dog. I don't know
whose dog it is." Then the customer asked, "So if it's not
your dog, you never feed him, right?" And the barber said,
"No." And the customer said, "Then why does he always
come here every day?" And the barber answered, "He's
waiting in case an ear comes off."
