Dogs are Doctors


A new study suggests that dogs can detect cancer in humans with tremendous accuracy. But dogs are man's best friend, so probably pretty hard for them to break the news to their owners:

Dog: I have some good news and some bad news.

Owner: Let me hear the good news first.

Dog: The good news is that I can detect cancer...

This reminds me of an old Dilbert, where Dogbert started a service to tell people bad news.

We cut to a woman on a couch, who says, "I give up. What IS the difference between my husband and The Village People?"

Dogbert replies, "The Village People are coming back..."
