With two dogs they killed the lion

"Union is strength."
Cf. "Many straws may bind an elephant."
The weasel and the cat held a feast on the fat of the unfortunate

"Union is strength." When men combine forces they can overcome their common enemy. The proverb is quoted to point the moral of the following fable: Two dogs
were once quarrelling, and suddenly one of them was attacked by a wolf. Then said the other to himself, If I do not help him now, the wolf will kill him and then turn his attention to me. So they both assailed the wolf and slew him.
