The Gardener and His Dog

A fable retold by Carrot Top.
== The Fable ==
A gardener watered his plants with his helpfully handy hose, but his pet dog was jumping around near a well. Suddenly, the dog fell in the well with a KERPLASH and the gardener changed his clothes so that his pet pooch could be saved. Just as he brought the pail to the top, the ungrateful dog bit his owner's hand. "Ouch, please don't bite-it really hurts me!" cried the gardener. "If that's your idea of gratitude to a pet owner who feeds you, pets you and treats you kindly, please pull yourself out of the well." With that, the gardener's pet dog was back in the well, but luckily, the gardener called his girlfriend. The gardener's girlfriend pulled her boyfriend's dog out of the well. "Thank you!" said the gardener. "You're welcome;" replied the gardener's girlfriend politely. "Ruff!" barked the gardener's pet dog. Fortunately, the gardener told his girlfriend, "On behalf of my pet, we'd like to tell you something." "What's that?" asked the gardener's girlfriend. "Do not bite the hand that feeds you;" replied the gardener. "Thanks for the advice;" said the gardener's girlfriend sincerely. "You are welcome!" replied the gardener gleefully. "Arf!" said the gardener's dog. The gardener, his pet dog and his girlfriend truly lived happily ever after.
