Slug, Deer, and Dog

Slug, Deer, and Dog went out to Lunch.
"Let's go to the bakery," said Slug.  "OK," said Dog.
"I would like a pretzel," said Slug.
"No, don't, they have salt!" said Deer.
Slug paid no attention and ate it.  Slug started to melt.
"Gross," said Deer, "Let's go to the pond."
"OK," said Dog.
"Hey, let's swim," said Deer.
"No!" said Dog, "there are alligators!"
But it was too late.  Deer was gone in 10 seconds.

(Moral, don't bother with slugs and deer.)
