There was once a mischievous dog that would sneak up and nip at everyone’s heels. His master hung a bell around the dog’s neck so everyone would hear the rascal coming. The dog was very proud of his bell and went jingling and jangling all over town, with his head held high. One day an old hound said to him, “Why are you so proud of yourself?” The dog answered, "Don’t you see my bell? It’s my reward for being such a good dog!"
