The dog and the wolf
A gaunt Wolf was almost dead with hunger when he happened to meet a Housedog who was passing by.
“Ah, brother,” said the Dog. “I know how it can be; your irregular life will soon make the ruin of you. Why don’t you work steadily as I do, and regularly get your food given to you?”
“I would have no objection,” said the Wolf, “if I could only get a place.”
“I will easily arrange that for you,” said the Dog. “Come with me to my master and you will share my work.”
So the Wolf and the Dog went towards the town together. On the way there the Wolf noticed that the hair on a certain part of the Dog’s neck was very much worn away, so he asked him how that had come about.
“Oh, it is nothing, said the Dog. “That is only the place where the collar is put on at night to keep me chained up; it is a bit stiff, but one soon gets used to it.”
“Is that all?” said the Wolf. “Then goodbye to you, Master Dog.”
The moral of the story is, “Better starve free than be a fat slave.”
1. The Dog was starving to death when the Wolf met him.
2. The Dog offered the Wolf a place in his master’s home.
3. The Wolf and the Dog went away from the town together.
4. The Wolf didn’t want to work steadily and get his food regularly.
5. The hair on a certain part of the Dog’s neck was very worn away.
6. The Dog said that the collar was put on him every morning to keep him chained up.
