Once upon a time there was a manger in a small village. There lived a poor woman in the village. She had a beautiful cow. She used to eat hay from that manger. One day a herd of cows came to the manger to eat hay. They saw a dog lying on the hay of that manger.
One of the cows pleaded to dog, “Please, will you get up! We are hungry. We have to eat our food”. The dog did not take heed of it. Once again another cow pleaded, “Please, let us have our hay”. The dog snarled and the cow stepped back.
A wise cow ran up to the bull and told him the matter. The bull came and requested, “Get out, please! Let them have their food”. There was no reply. The bull became angry. He blowed loudly and stamped his legs. The dog got frightened and ran for his life.
Moral of the Story : It is not good to be a dog in a manger.
