Thibodeaux was visiting with his friend, Boudreaux, one day. Boudreaux asked Thibodeaux what he had been up to lately.

Thibodeaux says, “Well, I just came back from Lafayette me.

“What were you doing in Lafayette?” asked Boudreaux.

“I went up dere to buy me a new hunting dog cher,” replies Thibodeaux.

Boudreaux says, “Mais Thibodeaux, what’s wrong with the hunting dogs from around here mon ami?”

Thibodeaux says, “Well, dis hunting dog can walk on water.”

Boudreaux laughs, “Thibodeaux, you got fooled you. Hunting dogs can’t walk on water no.”

Thibodeaux says, “I’m telling you cher. My new hunting dog can walk on water. You want to see?”

So Boudreaux and Thibodeaux go out on the lake with Thibodeaux’s new hunting dog. Pretty soon, Thibodeaux brings down a duck. The dog immediately walks out across the water, retrieves the duck, and jumps back in the boat.

Thibodeaux turns to Boudreau, “So what do you tink about dat, huh?”

Boudreaux replies, “Dat dog can’t swim, can he?”
