This question is based on the story of the dog (well, I don't really know if it was a dog or not. I'm just assuming that it is a dog for the purpose of this question) who had a bone on his mouth. "When he looked at his reflection on the river, he saw a dog who also had a bone on his mouth. He barked and saw his bone fell towards the dog on the water. He became angry and barked and barked. Then, the dog on the water did the same. Finally, he lunged for the dog and fell into the river. The dog was swallowed by the current and died."
I'm just asking this question for the sake of asking question, so any answer is welcome c") hehe...

The moral of that Aesop fable is, "He who grasps at shadows will lose what is real." So, if curiosity killed the cat, folly foiled the dog.

It doesn't make sense if you ask a question for the sake of asking it... Since some points are deducted to your current points... But to answer for the sake of answering the question does makes sense, because I'm gaining 2 points for it.. Whether you appreciate the answer or not.. And 8 points more if you truly appreciate it.. LOL as for the question.. (^^,)

dogs combating earrings. Disgusting human beings like Michael Vick employing them for combating, and then putting the the ineffective dogs in the rubbish as though no longer something is inaccurate with that ( ! ). alongside with Bull combating, it somewhat is between the main annoying, disgusting, and inhumane pastime. it somewhat is how human beings discover ways to delete all empathy from their lives, for then worst issues to return into their sorry existence...

Since you're talking figuratively:
Curiosity killed the cat.
Stupidity killed the dog.

That's a nice little story that you tell here. And if it's related to the story, then I'd say that stupidity and greed killed the dog...
