An Indian was buying a horse from a cowboy for a $100. After looking the horse over he announced that he would like to talk to the cowboys animals before purchasing the horse. The cowboy just laughed and said, “Dogs don’t talk but go ahead.” Turning to the dog the Indian said, “woof, bark, growl…….arff” and the dog made the similar noises back. The cowboy just smiled as the Indian turn to him and said, “Well what did he say” The Indian replied, “Dog says you good master, feed and water him on schedule, every night give him bone from steak as you eat by camp fire, dog still mad you kick him two years ago.” The cowboy thinks ok that is true but just a lucky guess.

The Indian says, “Now I talk to horse” he turns to the horse. The cowboy just laughed and said, “Horses don’t talk but go ahead.” The Indian bows and raises his head and stomps his foot in front of him while making horse sounds, and the horse does the same in reply. Now the cowboy looks at the Indian and said, “ OK what did the horse say.” The Indian replies. “ Hmmm not so good horse says you are good master, feed and water him on schedule, but he is mad you sold filly named patches earlier this year and you buy cheap hay from man named Skip” Amazed that the Indian knows this he is dumbfounded and quizzed about the Indians ability to really talk to animals, could it be true?

Now the Indian turns to the sheep and says to the cowboy, “Now I talk to sheep.” The cowboy spins the Indian back around and says, “Sheep lie take the horse for $50”.
