The Old Boxer

A wealthy old lady decides to go on a photo safari
in Africa, taking her faithful aged Boxer named
Jennie, along for the company.

One day the boxer starts chasing butterflies and
before long, Jennie discovers that she's lost.
Wandering about, she notices a leopard heading
rapidly in her direction with the intention of
having lunch.

The old dog thinks, "Oh, oh! I'm in deep doo-doo
now!" Noticing some bones on the ground close by,
she immediately settles down to chew on the bones
with her back to the approaching cat. Just as the
leopard is about to leap, the old poodle exclaims
loudly, "Boy, that was one delicious leopard! I
wonder if there are any more around here?" Hearing
this, the young leopard halts his attack in
mid-strike, a look of terror comes over him and he
slinks away into the trees. "Whew!", says the
leopard, "That was close! That old Dog nearly had
me!"

Meanwhile, a monkey who had been watching the whole
scene from a nearby tree, figures he can put this
knowledge to good use and trade it for protection
from the leopard. So off he goes, but the old boxer
sees him heading after the leopard with great speed,
and figures that something must be up. The monkey
soon catches up with the leopard, spills the beans
and strikes a deal for himself with the leopard.

The young leopard is furious at being made a fool of
and says, "Here, monkey, hop on my back and see
what's going to happen to that conniving canine!"
Now, the old boxer sees the leopard coming with the
monkey on his back and thinks, "What am I going to
do now?", but instead of

running, the dog sits down with her back to her
attackers, pretending she hasn't seen them yet, and
just when they get close enough to hear, the old
poodle says: "Where's that damn monkey? I
sent him off an hour ago to bring me another
leopard!"
