Why do dogs bark?

Let me start by asking, do you know why dogs bark?

No?

Well let me tell you.

There was once a time when there were three animals called The Big Three: dog, cow and goat. They lived in a placed ruled over by Lion. They would often visit the village where lion lived. It was far and they needed to catch a minibus that cost 25 kwacha each.

One day Lion called for a very important meeting that all the animals had to attend. So dog, goat and cow climbed onto the minibus. Goat was asked for his money but he said he would pay when he arrived. Dog paid 50 kwacha expecting change. Cow paid 25 kwacha. When they arrived, goat ran away, refusing to pay. When dog asked for his changed the conductor refused.

This is why when you see a dog he is barking at the passing cars, and when you see a cow he is walking freely. And the goat, well he always runs away from everything.
