Объяснение
«Петух да собака» is an animal tale. A poor old couple's rooster and dog leave home for the forest because life there is hard. At night the rooster sits on a branch and the dog sleeps in the hollow of the tree. At dawn the rooster crows; a fox comes, flatters him and invites him to visit. The rooster says, “I have a friend too, he is asleep in the hollow,” the fox rushes to the hollow, and the dog catches her. The tale is about friends helping each other and the power of wit.

Друзья всегда помогут друг другу.» (The rooster and the dog left home for the forest. At night the rooster sat on a branch and the dog slept in the hollow.
