A man decides he wants a hunting dog, so he goes to a shop in town and says,"Give me the best hunting dog you've got"

The owner takes him into the backroom. "This one here's the best one we've got"

"I want to see him in action," said the man.

The owner takes the man out in the field beside the shop. He let the dog loose into the field. "However many barks is how many rabbits is in that field"

The dog barked three times, and a few minutes later, brought back three rabbits.

'I'll take it," said the man.

The next day, he went hunting with the dog. He let him loose in the field. The dog barked four times, and brought back four rabbits.

Two days later, they went hunting again, this time in the woods. The man let the dog loose and waited. The dog barked six times, and brought back six rabbits.

The next weekend, they again went hunting in the woods. The man let the dog loose. To his surprise, the dog came back with a stick. The man cursed him, and threw the stick back in the woods. The dog went back in and came out with another stick.

The man was stumped, and went back to the shop where he bought the dog. He told the owner what happened.

"You idiot,"said the owner,"He was trying to tell you that there was more rabbits in those woods than you can shake a stick at!!!"
