John’s dog chewed the tongue on one of his new, very expensive running shoes. He hoped to save his investment, so he took the sneakers to a shoe repair shop. He placed them on the counter and told the man, „My dog got hold of this.”
The repairman picked up the shoe, looked it over, and placed it back down on the counter.
„Well, what do you recommend?” John asked.
The repairman replied, „Give your dog the other shoe.”
