A dog lived with his master. The master fed him an egg every day. One day, the master took the dog on the seashore and started running. While running, the dog saw something white and round. He mistook it for an egg but it was actually an oyster. The dog wanted to eat the ‘egg’. Without wasting a minute, he excitedly ran to where the ‘egg’ was. He opened his mouth and swallowed the oyster at once. Then the dog continued on his way. But after some time, his stomach started aching. The dog thought, “I eat an egg every day, then why is my stomach paining only today?” It struck him that maybe what he had eaten was not an egg. He thought, ‘Serves me right for thinking that everything white and round is an egg.’
