A Shih Tzu

It does seem to me a funny story though i cannot say if it is true
The one who told me not lacking in humor and that is to give him his due
It is one of those zoo sort of stories of how a man and his wife and their young son and daughter one Sunday
Went to a small zoo in the suburbs from their home some five Kilometres away
A warm afternoon in prime of Summer with only the slightest of breeze
The nesting songbirds chirped and whistled on the Parkland bushes and trees
The children they laughed in excitement a happy young girl and boy
Their zoo visit would be a highlight zoo visits most children enjoy
But the small zoo was a disappointment without birds and only one small dog there
A mangy dog who could do with brushing to remove the burs from his long hair
The father and mother of the children complained to the owner what sort of zoo is this supposed to be
We really think this is not funny since one mangy dog is all we can see
you certainly are not a zoo owner and this place it is not a zoo
But the owner he did seem offended saying read the sign on the gate a Shih Tzu
