It was not an appropriate way for a dog to behave.

His friends in the village always expected the dog to bite them.

The news about John's dog spread through the village.

None of the people wanted to go to John's house.

John tried to instruct the dog to behave, but it never worked.

He tried to be patient and teach the dog to be calm.

John's friend came to talk to him about the issue.

During their important meeting, his friend said, The people in the village asked me to represent them.

Why don't you put a bell around the dog's neck?

This way, we would hear your dog coming down the street.

It would not be able to bite anyone anymore.

People looked at him when they heard his bell.

He liked the song the bell played when he walked.

One day, John's dog strolled through the village and met some other dogs.

He expected them to want a bell like his.

They said the bell made people avoid him.

No, they look at me because they like the bell.

The other dog said, You have the wrong idea of what makes you popular.

It tells them where you are so they can avoid you.

 You see, being popular isn't something positive when it's for the wrong reason.
