Ok this is pretty good, and includes both the dog and the salami and it’s funny. A naked woman holding a salami and a poodle definitely had something go terribly wrong so the phrase “screwed the pooch” is especially appropriate. Still doesn’t quite explain why the bartender would automatically assume she wouldn’t be having a drink that night though, which would be key to making a truly wonderful punchline.

A naked blonde walks into a bar with a poodle under one arm and a two foot salami under the other. She lays the poodle on the table. Bartender says: I suppose you won’t be needing a drink. Naked lady says…“My boyfriend said he wanted to play hide the salami with me and a French bitch, and when I show up ready to go, he throws me out!”

“Don’t think, pour; anything cold & strong. And don’t ever date a ‘deli-man’. They’re all -ssholes.”

Naked lady says: What do you mean? And the bartender says: Well, by the looks of you, you’ve already had a Sexin’ the Pooch and a Dry Salami.

Yes, I’ll have a drink. I was the designated driver the last time we went out.
