The Dog In The Manger

There was a very selfish and rough dog. He used to bark at every creature. He did not even allow innocent beasts to take their food and did not allow anyone to come near the manger. He would not let any horse touch the hay. He began to bark angrily. The horses became afraid and could not come to take food.

Thus, the bad-tempered dog kept the hungry horses away from their food. He himself could not eat the hay. Yet, he would not allow anyone to take a bit of it. He did not follow the noble principle, “Live and let live.”

Moral: “Live and let live.”
