While riding one day, a cowboy met an Indian riding along with a dog and a sheep and he began a conversation.
Cowboy: 'Hey, nice dog you got there. Mind if I speak to him?
Indian: 'Dog no talk.'
Cowboy: 'Hey dog, how's it going?'
Dog: 'Doin' alright.'
Indian: Look of shock.
Cowboy: 'Is this Indian your owner?' Pointing at the Indian.
Dog: 'Yep.'
Cowboy: 'How does he treat you?'
Dog: 'Real good. He walks me twice a day, feeds me great food, and takes me to the lake once a week to play.'
Indian: Look of disbelief.
Cowboy: 'Mind if I talk to your horse?'
Indian: 'Horse no talk.'
Cowboy: 'Hey horse, how's it going?'
Horse: 'Good.'
Indian: Extreme look of shock.
Cowboy: 'Is this your owner?' Pointing at the Indian.
Horse: 'Yep.'
Cowboy: 'How does he treat you?'
Horse: 'Pretty good, thanks for asking. He rides me regularly, brushes me down often, and keeps me in a shed to protect me.'
Indian: Complete look of utter amazement.
Cowboy: 'Mind if I talk to your sheep?'
Indian: 'Sheep liar.'
