Sleeping Dog

One afternoon, a woman was in her back yard hanging the
laundry when an old, tired-looking dog wandered into the
yard. The woman could tell from the dog's collar and
well-fed belly that he had a home. But when she walked
into the house, the dog followed her, sauntered down the
hall and fell asleep in a corner.

An hour later, he went to the door, and the woman let
him out.

The next day the dog was back. He resumed his position
in the hallway and slept for an hour. This continued for
several weeks.

Curious, the woman pinned a note to his collar: "Every
afternoon, your dog comes to my house for a nap."

The next day he arrived with a different note pinned to
his collar: "We have ten children. He's trying to catch
up on his sleep."
