A Dawg Named Lawyer!

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with Home Point Real Estate DRE # 01492725

A few years ago my brother Earl flew down to Alabama to go hunting.   When he got there he needed a dog and went to rent one.  The guy running the kennel said he could rent him a dog named Lawyer for $200.00.  Well my brother thought that was kind of pricey, but the kennel owner assured him Lawyer would do a good job.

Well Lawyer was a great hunting dog, helping him spot all the ducks and running them down for him. 

The next year Earl flew down again and wanted to rent Lawyer, but Lawyer now cost $500.00.  Earl thought this was outrageous.  But the kennel owner pointed out what a good job Lawyer does and told him Lawyer was in demand.  So Earl paid the fee and sure enough Lawyer did a great job.

This year Earl Flew down and went to rent Lawyer.  The kennel owner told him he could have Lawyer, that the dog was now useless.  Earl wanted to know what happened to Lawyer.  The kennel owner explained that someone had rented Lawyer, but forgot his name.  He started calling him Judge and now all that Lawyer does is sit around and bark.

If you want an Broker and a REALTOR® that does more than set around and bark please give me a call.

I wonder what the dog would have done if someone started calling him Bailiff! Too funny!

Hey Gene, any truth to the rumor that Lawyer has gone into politics?  I hear he's shoe-in for Senator since he has fillabustering down to science.  He'd be a real howl in Washington DC.

Loved the story...

Gene, tell us about the baby...

I've got 9 grandkids, ages 6 weeks to 6 years.  I was always told that the best way to know a man is to watch him around dogs and children.  It appears to prove true...ask Lawyer.
