As he walked away, he came to a river. He saw a bridge over the river and thought he would cross the bridge and have fun eating the piece of meat.
He tried to cross the bridge very carefully and started walking slowly. But suddenly he looked under the bridge. The river had clear water. He was surprised to see another dog in the water carrying meat like him.
