An old man had a dog - his only companion for nearly 15 years. Sadly, the dog died. He was so attached to the dog, that he went to see his Rabbi and asked if he would arrange to say Kaddish for the dog.
The rabbi said, "Mr. Bernbaum you know we are an Orthodox congregation, Kaddish is only for humans, not for animals."
"However," said the rabbi, "there's a new Reform congregation down the street a block or two. You go there and ask if they'll say kaddish for the dog. You know they may just be meshugena enough to do this for you."
The old man thanked him, and said, "Do you suppose they'll also accept my $75,000 donation in memory of my little Moshe?"
"Hold It!" shouted the rabbi. "You didn't tell me that your dog was Jewish?!"
