A greedy dog saw a big bone in a butcher's shop window. It went into the shop and stole the bone, prompting the butcher to chase it. The dog escaped and ran far away. While crossing a bridge, the dog saw another dog in the river below with an even bigger bone. When the greedy dog tried to take that bone, it dropped its own bone into the river, leaving it sad without a bone.
