My truck’s acting funny!’ The vet looked under the hood for a moment and declared, 'Your engine's got a case of canine distemper!' The driver laughed, shook his head, and said, 'No, Doc, it's just misfiring.' The vet scratched his head and replied, 'Oh, that makes more sense then.' They both shared a good laugh as the neighbor walked by with their dog, commenting, 'Guess I’ll take Rover in tomorrow too—just to be safe!'

The delivery driver picked one up and took a bite—surprised by how yummy they were! He looked around, saw no one else was there, and decided to grab another for his colleague.
