The Two Dogs
A man owned two dogs. The first he trained to hunt and the second he ordered to guard the house. Now, when the one went hunting and caught some game, the master always threw a piece of it to the other dog as well. The hunting dog was aggrieved at this and approached his friend, saying that it was he who had gone out and had a hard time of it on every occasion, while his comrade did nothing, yet enjoyed the fruits of his labors.
The guard dog replied: “You should not blame me, but our master, for it was he who taught me not to work and to live instead from the work of others.”
