While riding one day, a cowboy met an Indian riding along with a dog and sheep and began a conversation.

Cowboy: "Hey, cool 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 total disbelief.

Cowboy: "Mind if I talk to your horse?"

Indian: "Horse no talk."

Cowboy: "Hey horse, how's it going?"

Horse: "Cool."

Indian: Extreme look of shock.

Cowboy: "Is this your owner? " pointing at Indian

Horse: "Yep"

Cowboy: "How's 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: Total look of utter amazement.

Cowboy: "Mind if I talk to your sheep?"

Indian: "Sheep liar."

 

Repost.

 

i found it from my old emails

 

we all know this is a made up story.
well..... it was based on the true story.....that of Tokyo James.

 

That's my joke. You stole it! (It's also 25 years old.)

 

maybe you sent it to me awhile ago RB

 

Maybe?

 

Were there a lot of sheep in the wild west??

 

probably...
it gets cold and lonely at night in the desert. they probably needed sheep fur or/and a companion

 

Montana. . . and environs.
