The Greedy Dog

 

Moral story: “The Greedy Dog”

A dog was hungry. He found a piece of meat. He was afraid that the other dogs would steal the piece of meat. So, he ran out of the town. On the way there was a canal. There was a bridge over the canal. He stopped for a while and looked into the water of the canal. The dog saw his own reflection in the water. He thought that there was another dog in the water with a bigger piece of meat in the mouth. The dog became greedy. He thought that if he could scare away the other dog, he would be able to have two pieces of meat. The dog opened his mouth to bark at the shadow in the water. As he did so, the piece of meat, in his mouth, fell into the water. The dog realized his mistake. He felt very sorry and ashamed of his foolishness.

Moral:

    Greed is curse

    Do not be greedy

    Greed is not beneficial
