Once upon a time, there was a dog. Because he didn’t get meat during his childhood he developed this habit of continuous barking. He barked day and night without any provocations. Everyone around him made him feel inexorably bad so he decided to make life of others bad, if he were to make someone big and powerful.
As it so happened, he was selected in an animal institute as at lower position, under the leadership of cat. The official cat made him feel bad and told him to get rid of his barking. The dog responded, “How can I get rid of it, it’s my nature to bark. ”
“You need to curb it else I will throw you out of this institute in five minute.”
The dog lowered his head and walked out. Whenever he felt like barking, he dug into some meat, as he could afford now. He didn’t want to lose this job, so he didn’t bark in the institution. But at home, the story was altogether different. He barked at his wife and his children with such anger that his canines were exposed. His family member were scared. In the mid of the night, his wife along with his children left him. Now, he didn’t have anything to lose. He decided to take matters in his own paws. He invited the official cat to his house for dinner and fed him poisoned barbecued chicken. Then, he secretly got rid of him.
Next day, he got the charge of the animal institute; thanks to his loyalty to a barking politician. Ever since he became the leader of the institute, he told everyone that he was an incarnation of doggod. His words should be considered dog bible and whatever was out of his sermons should be considered as a sin. If anyone committed a sin, he/she should be thrown out of the institute in five minutes. He only selected those dogs or animals who told him that he is a hard working dog and his barking is normal.

One day, he got an email from an institute working for betterment of dogs for a lecture to their faculty members. He accepted the lecture on the condition that he will organize the stay and food of the attendee dogs. The institution accepted that condition. When the group arrived in the evening, some of attendee dogs decided to stay outside or eat outside, he barked at them and even he tried to bite them. Somehow, the group defended themselves. He sniggered at them thinking who will save them from him in morning lecture.
In the morning, the dogs attendee came to him for a lecture. Instead of an informative lecture, he barked. He told them, “No dog except him are working seriously. If all of them were doing their job, the health of the country’s dogs would have been improved. Look at the condition of their sheds; it’s worse. You dogs are responsible for all this.”
“Aren’t you responsible for this?” One of the attendee asked.
“Don’t talk. Listen. I have worked for betterment of dogs for couple of decades now. Do you know I have invested so much money for dogcare?”
“How can we know?”
“Don’t talk. Just listen. If you don’t, I will throw you out in five minutes.”
Few of attendee walked out of the lecture. He was ready to attack the dogs who were leaving but the group’s supervisor offered him a seasoned turkey leg. He dug in the meat and calmed down a little bit. Then, he looked at the supervisor, “How disobedient dogs you have?”
The supervisor remained calm.
“You have seen how obedient dogs, cats and squirrels I have.”
“I know sir but please continue your informative lecture.” The supervisor replied.
“If you can’t bark like me, you aren’t dog.” He continued.
“That’s not right sir.” Someone from the attendance retorted.
“You know people in foreign country say, I bark the best.”
“That’s your opinion. Some dogs in this country bark much better than you.”
“Can anyone of you bark in foreign accent?”
Some attendee sniggered. This infuriated him even more.
“You don’t know anything. Listen to me else I will throw you out of the institute in five minutes.”

Somehow the lecture was over. At the gate of the institute, attendee met the servant of the dog. One of the attendee asked the servant, “He can afford enough meat now, why does he bark so much?”
“Poor dog, he misses his family.”
When the attendee readied for departure from the institute, they heard the dog’s barking. “Dogs of this country don’t deserve a dog like me.”
