A
Baptist preacher and his wife decided they needed a dog.

Ever
mindful of the congregation, they knew the dog must also be Baptist.

They
visited an expensive kennel and explained their needs to the manager, who
assured them he had just the dog for them.

The dog
was produced and the manager said "Fetch the Bible."

The dog
bounded to the bookshelf, scrutinized the books, located the Bible, and brought
it to the manager.

The
manager then said "Find Psalms 23".

The
dog, showing marvelous dexterity with his paws, leafed thru the Bible, found the
correct passage, and pointed to it with his paw.

Duly
impressed, the couple purchased the dog.

That
evening a group of parishioners came to visit.

The
preacher and his wife began to show off the dog, having him locate several Bible
verses.

The
visitors were amazed.

Finally, one man asked "Can he do normal dog tricks too?"

"Let's
see" said the preacher.

Pointing his finger at the dog, he commanded "Heel!"

The dog
immediately jumped up on a chair, placed one paw on the preacher's forehead and
began to howl.

The
preacher turned to his wife and exclaimed "Good grief, we've bought a
Pentecostal dog!"
