Puppies For Sale...
A store owner was tacking a sign above his door that read
"Puppies For Sale." Signs like that have a way of attracting
small children, and sure enough, a little boy appeared under
the store owner's sign. "How much are you going to sell the
puppies for?" he asked.
The store owner replied, "Anywhere from $30 to $50."
The little boy reached in his pocket and pulled out some
change. "I have $2.37," he said. "Can I please look at them?"
The store owner smiled and whistled and out of the kennel
came "Lady", who ran down the aisle of his store followed
by five teeny, tiny balls of fur.
One puppy was lagging considerably behind. Immediately the
little boy singled out the lagging, limping puppy and said,
"What's wrong with that little dog?"
The store owner explained that the veterinarian had examined
the little puppy and had discovered it didn't have a hip
socket. It would always limp. It would always be lame.
The little boy became excited. "That is the puppy that I want to buy."
The store owner said, "No, you don't want to buy that little
dog. If you really want him, I'll just give him to you."
The little boy got quite upset. He looked straight into the
store owner's eyes, pointing his finger, and said, "I don't
want you to give him to me. That little dog is worth every
bit as much as all the other dogs and I'll pay full price.
In fact, I'll give you $2.37 now, and 50 cents a month until
I have him paid for."
The store owner countered, "You really don't want to buy this
little dog. He is never going to be able to run and jump and
play with you like the other puppies."
To his surprise, the little boy reached down and rolled up
his pant leg to reveal a badly twisted, crippled left leg
supported by a big metal brace. He looked up at the store
owner and softly replied, "Well, I don't run so well myself,
and the little puppy will need someone who understands!"
We ALL need someone who understands!

Nice. At first I thought that was a real story, I was like, "wouldn't the little boy get in trouble for buying the puppy without the parent's permition" and "How come the store owner would let the boy have the puppy for $2.37 (If it could run and play) if he was charging $30 - $50" |
