Paul is taking his pet goat for a walk through the city park one day, when he passes the gates of the city zoo. Deciding that he hasn't been for a while and would like to come visit, he (and his goat) start to walk through the front gate, when they are stopped by the ticket taker.
"I'm sorry, sir," the ticket taker says. "But you're goat can't come in. No outside animals are allowed in."
Well, Paul is about to walk away, when he looks past the front gate and sees a family with a dog watching the monkeys. "Well, how come they can have their pet in there?", he asks, pointing.
The ticket taker looks at where he is pointing, then turns back. "That's different. That's a seeing-eye dog - service animals are allowed in."
Suddenly getting an idea, Paul takes his goat back home. The next day, he comes back... this time wearing a pair of dark sunglasses. After first making sure that there is a different ticket taker today, he walks up to the gate, his goat at his heels. Once again, he is stopped.
"Sorry, sir," says the ticket taker. "No pets are allowed."
"Ah, but this is my seeing-eye dog," says Paul. "I need him to come with me."
"Umm... sir? That's not a dog, that's a goat."
"Well how should I know?" says Paul
