Translation(Rita Seng Mai)
Once upon a time, there were a goat and a dog in a house. The goat ate a lot of food even that was not the time for him to eat. He kept eating and eating. So, it was difficult for the owner to feed him. And the dog usually stole the bones and meat. Then their owner couldn't even work well. The master needed to watch them all the time. He couldn't do any work. Although the goat and the dog were tied, they always found a way to steal food. So, one person needed to look at them. Then they two couldn't eat anything since their owner kept watching them. When they met, they asked each other, "Have you eaten your food?" They replied, "No, the master is watching us." Then they discussed to do something. They could communicate since the animals could understand each other in the past. The dog said, "I didn't get a chance to eat any meat now. We should unite now. Do you agree with me?" The goat said "Yes, I do. Tell me your plan." Then the dog said, "You don't eat meat. Then you steal meat. And I don't eat plants and grass. So, I will steal those. We will meet here again and exchange our food. Okay?" They both were agreed on that. One day, they were pretending like they were spending their time as usual. The dog did not go to the place where the meat was kept, and the goat didn't go to the plants and grass. He thought that they were sick of stealing the food. So, the master wasn't aware of them. Then, the dog and the goat stole the food and changed their food. And they ate happily. Their owner didn't really know that they two were changing the food in that way. Then the dog could eat meat, and the goat could eat the grass without being caught.
