85. The
Insatiable Dog
Once, a dog named Scoofy
lived with his friends in a small town. He ate whatever he wanted to eat and
slept in the shade of an oak tree. Though he was enjoying his life in town yet
he was not satisfied and always hoped to have something better than what he
had. One night, when his all friends were sleeping, he woke up at midnight and
without saying anything to his friends he ran away towards the city. In the
city he found a house with a place in the back-yard where all waste food was
dumped. Scoofy ate the delicious leftovers every day and turned stout in a few
days. One day, the pet dogs of the house-owner were roaming loose in the
backyard. As soon as they detected Scoofy, they attacked him. They dug their
sharp teeth into Scoofy's soft and stout flesh. With deep wounds and torn flesh
Scoofy kept running till he reached back his home town. At once his old friends
greeted him and the dogs enquired of him. Scoofy's all friends saw him and
started laughing mockingly seeing his bad condition. Scoofy was very ashamed
and said sorry to his friends.
