Once, there was a dog that had taken rest in a manger filled with hay. When an ox approached the manger to eat the hay, the dog growled and barked, preventing the ox from having any of it.
Despite having no interest in the hay, the dog was unwilling to share it with the ox. This continued for some time until the ox gave up and left the manger empty-handed.
The dog, however, remained in the manger and continued to lie on the hay, even though it couldn't eat it. The dog was determined not to let anyone else have it.
Eventually, the owner of the manger noticed what was happening and scolded the dog for its selfish behavior, saying, "You have no use for the hay, yet you are stopping others from having it. Don't prevent others from having what you don't need!"
Feeling ashamed, the dog left the manger, allowing other animals to eat the hay.
Once, there was a dog. The dog was lying in a place full of dry grass for animals to eat. When an ox came to eat the grass, the dog made loud and angry sounds. It did not let the ox eat the grass.
The dog did not want to eat the grass. But it did not let the ox eat it either. This happened many times. The ox walked away with nothing to eat.
The dog stayed on the grass. It could not eat the grass. But it did not move. The dog did not want others to have the grass.
After some time, the person who owned the place saw this. He was not happy with the dog. He said, "You don't eat the grass. But you don't let others eat it. Do not stop others from having what you don't need!"
The dog felt bad. It left the place. Then, other animals could eat the grass.
Once upon a time, there was a dog that decided to rest in a manger full of hay. When an ox came close to the manger to eat some of the hay, the dog started to growl and bark loudly, making sure the ox couldn't eat any of it.
Even though the dog didn't want to eat the hay itself, it didn't want the ox to have any either. This went on for a while until the ox finally walked away without getting any hay.
The dog stayed in the manger, lying on the hay it didn't need. It was very determined not to share with anyone.
After a while, the person who owned the manger saw what was happening. He told off the dog for being so selfish. He said, "You don't need the hay, but you won't let others have it. You shouldn't stop others from using what you don't need!"
Feeling embarrassed, the dog left the manger. This allowed the other animals to finally eat the hay.
Once upon a time, in a cozy barn filled with hay, there was a dog who thought he'd found the perfect spot for a nap. "Ah, this hay is just right! Comfy and cozy, like pajamas for my fur," he thought.
Now, along came an ox, who looked at the hay and said, "Yum! Dinner time!" But the dog quickly growled, "No, no, no! This is my bed, not your snack!"
The ox tilted his head, confused, "But you don't eat hay, do you?"
The dog wagged his tail and said, "Eat it? No way! But I like to sleep on it. It's like a big, scratchy blanket!"
The ox tried to reason with the dog, "But I'm hungry, and you're lying on my dinner!"
The dog barked back, wagging his tail, "Oh no, you don't! You'll have to find something else. This hay is mine, all mine! It's my fluffy bed, like sleeping on a cloud made of noodles!"
The ox tried and tried, but the dog wouldn't budge. He was as stubborn as a ticklish turtle. The ox left the manger, still hungry, and the dog chuckled to himself, "That'll show him!"
Eventually, the owner of the manger noticed what was happening and said to the dog, "You silly pup! You don't need this hay, so why not share? It's like having a mountain of toys and not letting anyone play with them!"
The dog's ears went floppy, and he realized he'd been a bit selfish. Feeling sorry, he said, "You're right. I don't need all this hay. Sharing is like giving a big, happy hug!"
And with that, the dog left the manger, and the other animals were free to eat the hay.
With a wag and a bark in a farmyard one day,
Lay a dog in a manger where bundles of hay,
Were stored for the oxen, their dinner and meal,
But the dog found the manger a comfortable steal.
Up came an ox with a hunger and thirst,
To the hay in the manger it wandered at first,
But the dog with a growl and a menacing glare,
Told the ox, "You won't eat any hay from there!"
"But why?" asked the ox, with a puzzled frown,
"You can't eat the hay, won't you let me chow down?"
But the dog wouldn't budge, it refused to comply,
"Though I don't eat the hay, you won't get it, oh my!"
Day after day, the scene was the same,
The dog and the ox, in this selfishness game,
The ox would come hungry, the dog would say "Nay!",
And the ox would leave, empty and sullen each day.
But a farmer, the owner, a wise man indeed,
Saw what was happening, took careful heed,
He scolded the dog with a stern voice and eye,
"You don't need the hay, why make the ox cry?"
Ashamed and embarrassed, the dog slunk away,
Leaving the manger and bundles of hay,
The ox could now eat, and the farm was at peace,
And the selfish old dog had caused trouble to cease.
