Folk Story 01- The dog in the manger


The dog in the manger
A cow was hungry because she couldn’t  find any food.  The severe drought had dried  up all the grass.  The gamarala had a stock of dried hay in the manger for the cow. The hungry cow approached the manger to have a good meal. The gamarala’s dog used to sleep on the dry hay.  When the cow was about to put her mouth to the hay the dog awoke. It began to bark at the cow furiously. The frightened cow withdraw. The cow tried again and again to have a mouthful of hay, but the selfish dog did not allow.
