Muldoon lives with his dog in the countryside. When the dog dies, Muldoon goes to the parish priest. "Father, could you say a mass for the poor creature?" The father explains, "We can’t have services for an animal in the church, but there’s a new denomination down the road. Maybe they’ll do something for him." "Thanks," says Muldoon. "Do you think $5,000 is enough to donate for the service?" The father replies, "Why didn’t you tell me the dog was Catholic?"
