There was a farmer who owned a small ranch with some livestock and two horses, Razzle and Dazzle.
One day a travelling salesman knocks on his door.
While waiting for the farmer to answer he notices the horses racing around their pen.
After he gives his sales pitch he says to the farmer:
“You know those two horses are pretty quick. Have you ever thought about racing them?”
After a while, the farmer thinks on it and takes them down to a local derby.
As soon as the announcer says “GO”, gates open his two horses are fighting for the lead.
Razzle then Dazzle. Razzle then Dazzle. Razzle wins by a nose.
The farmer wins some cash and thinks this could be kinda fun.
Every weekend or so he races them. It’s always the same thing. The announcer says “GO”, gates open, Razzle and Dazzle fighting for the lead.
Razzle then Dazzle. Razzle then Dazzle. Razzle wins by a nose.
Life is going pretty good.
The farmer has bought a new truck and trailer with his winnings.
He enters the horses in the Kentucky Derby.
The announcer says “GO”, gates open, Razzle and Dazzle fighting for the lead.
Razzle then Dazzle. Razzle then Dazzle. Razzle wins by a nose.
A few years later when Razzle and Dazzle are getting older.
The farmer retires Razzle and Dazzle. They’re sitting in their pen. Dazzle turns to Razzle and says:
” I know I can beat you. What do you say? One last race?”
” Okay. But it’s not an official race unless we have someone to say go. Hey, the dog will you say go for us?” The dog nods.
Razzle and Dazzle line up.
The dog says “GO”. Razzle and Dazzle fighting for the lead.
Razzle then Dazzle. Razzle then Dazzle. Razzle wins by a nose.
After the race Razzle looks at Dazzle and simply says
“I didn’t know dogs could talk”
