In a small country pub, all the patrons became quite used to the pub owners
little dog being around the bar, so were quite upset when one day the little dog
died.

Everyone met to decide how they could remember the little dog. The decision
was to cut off his tail and stick it up behind the bar to remind everyone of the
little dog’s wagging tail.

The little dog went up to heaven and was about to run through the pearly
gates when he was stopped by Saint Peter, who questioned the little dog as to
where he was going.

The little dog said “I have been a good dog – so I am going into heaven where
I belong!”. Saint Peter replied “Heaven is a place of perfection, you can not
come into heaven without a tail, where is your tail?”

The little dog explained the what had happened back on earth. St Peter told
the little dog to go back down to earth and retrieve his tail. The little dog
protested that it was now the middle of the night on earth, but St Peter would
not change his mind.

So the little dog went back down to earth and scratched on the door of the
pub until the bartender who lived upstairs came down and opened the door.

“My goodness, it is the spirit of the little dog. What can I do for you?”
said the bartender. The little dog explained that he wasn’t allowed into heaven
without his tail, and he needed it back. The bartender replied “I would really
like to help you, but my liquor license doesn’t allow me to retail spirits after
hours!”
