[Trending] This Dog Invented His Own Money And They Literally Grow On Trees

There’s hardly anyone who can argue with the popular saying ‘money doesn’t grow on trees’, well, maybe except for this special canine. A clever dog named Negro managed to secure himself a seemingly endless supply of treats, by paying for them with leaves.

Negro lives at the Diversified Technical Education Institute of Monterrey Casanare in Colombia. The dog was adopted by the staff and freely roams around the school’s yard. Students would sometimes buy Negro cookies at the local store, but one day the dog decided that it was time for him to stop begging for treats because he had a better plan. After careful observation, this clever dog did something unthinkable. “One day, spontaneously, he appeared with a leaf in his mouth, wagging his tail and letting it be known that he wanted a cookie,” teacher Angela Garcia Bernal told The Dodo.

The canine offered ‘take it or leaf it’ deal for the store’s attendant. Astonished by the dog’s intelligence, she couldn’t help but ‘sell’ Negro a cookie. “He comes for cookies every day,” Gladys Barreto, a longtime store attendant, told The Dodo. “He always pays with a leaf. It is his daily purchase.” Since his fortune literally grows on trees, the store’s staff decided to allow Negro to buy treats only couple times a day.

The clever dog Negro left everyone speechless. “When you first see it, you almost want to cry. He’s found a way to make himself understood. He’s very intelligent” Bernal said.
