Lock Jaw
Published Dec 16, 2004
In one small rural town the sheriff also fulfilled the role of the town's animal Vet.
One night the phone rang, and his wife answered.
An agitated voice inquired, "Is your husband there?"
"Well, do you need him as the sheriff or the vet?" the wife asked.
"Both!" was the reply.
"We can't get our dog's mouth open, and there's a burglar in it."
