"My Dog Joke"

Medical life for dogs. June 26,2006

Two patients limp into two different medical clinics
with the same complaint.

Both have trouble walking and appear to require a hip
replacement.

The first patient is examined within the hour, is
x-rayed the same day and has a time booked for surgery
the following week.

The second sees the family doctor after waiting a week
for an appointment, then waits eighteen weeks to see a
specialist, then gets an x-ray, which isn't reviewed for another
month and finally has his surgery scheduled for a year
from then.
Why the different treatment for the two patients?

The first is a Rat Terrier; the second is a Senior
Citizen.
