The Bitch And Her Whelps
Aesop Fable: The Bitch And Her Whelps
A bitch, ready to whelp, earnestly begged a shepherd for
a place where she might litter. When her request was
granted, she besought permission to rear her puppies in
the same spot.
The shepherd again consented. But at last
the Bitch, protected by the bodyguard of her Whelps, who
had now grown up and were able to defend themselves,
asserted her exclusive right to the place and would not
permit the shepherd to approach.
