A lean and hungry wolf was roaming around outside a village, when he met a sleek , well-fed dog.
- "Tell me, dog, " the wolf asked him. " Where do you dogs get food from?"
- "Men give it to us, " said the dog.
- " Is it true that you work hard for them?"
- "No, our work is not hard," said the dog. " Our job is to guard the house at night!"
- "Do they feed you just for doing that? said the wolf. "I would take that job rightaway.It's hard for us wolves to find food."
- " Come along then, " said the dog." My master will feed you too."
The wolf was please and went off with the dog to work for men.As he was going through the gate, he saw that the dog's fur was worn away on the neck.
- " How did you do that, dog?"
- "oh,that's nothing." said the dog.
- " What do you mean?"
- "It's from the chain.I'm chained up in the daytime,and the chain has rubbed away the fur on my neck."
- " Then I'm off, dog.Goodbye," said the wolf. " I'm not going to live with men.I'd rather stay hungry than lose my freedom."
