Goat, Dog and Cow

Goat, Dog and Cow were great friends. One day they went on a journey in a taxi.

1

When they reached the end of their journey, the driver asked them to pay their fares. Cow paid her fare.

2

Dog paid a bit extra, because he did not have the correct money.

3

The driver was about to give Dog his change when Goat ran away without paying anything.

4

The driver was very annoyed. He drove away without giving Dog his change.

5

That is why, even today, Dog runs towards a car to peep inside and find the driver who owes him his change.

6

Goat runs away from the sound of a car. She is afraid she will be arrested for not paying her fare.

7

And Cow is not bothered when a car is coming. Cow takes her time crossing the road because she knows she paid her fare in full.
