There was a male deer who was invited to a friend's wedding reception. He had a crush on a female deer, who was also invited to the same wedding. He tried to use this chance to impress her. However, he never thought of himself as handsome. So, he tried to do something about his wardrobe.

The male deer saw Uncle Dog with antlers on his head. He thought, wouldn't those antlers look great on me? But he did not know Uncle Dog well enough to ask him directly. Instead, the male deer approached Uncle Dog's neighbor, Mr. Rooster, to ask for permission to borrow the antlers on his behalf. Mr. Rooster, being a nice guy, said no problem, he would be happy to help.

Mr. Rooster went to knock on Uncle Dog's door and greeted. He admired Uncle Dog's antlers, and asked how he took care of them. Uncle Dog said, there really wasn't much to it. Just be sure to put them away before going to bed, that way they would not get damaged.

Mr. Rooster asked, "If you won't be needing your antlers at night, would you let Mr. Deer borrow them for the evening?"

Uncle Dog thought for a second, "I'll let him borrow them if I can be sure that he'll return them. If he doesn't return them, will I be able to hold you accountable?"

Mr. Rooster thought he could trust Mr. Deer, so he agreed to being the guarantor and promised to return the antlers by the next morning. Uncle Dog decided that was good enough and let Mr. Rooster borrow the antlers.

When Mr. Deer got the antlers from Mr. Rooster, he put them on immediately and looked in the mirror. Wow! I look grand! Mr. Deer thought as he indulge in the image he was seeing. He raised his head high and walked proudly to the wedding reception.

Everyone looked at him as he walked by, including the female deer that he had a crush on. Feeling extremely confident, Mr. Deer walked next to Ms. Deer, without saying a word, and she walked in with him as his date.

All the photographers that came to take pictures of the bride and groom now pointed their cameras at the deer couple. Ms. Deer suddenly felt like a celebrity, too, and she enjoyed this type of attention just as much. The deer couple even got invited to sit with the bride and groom.

Mr. Deer thought, the antlers clearly deserve to be on my head! They're such a waste on Uncle Dog's head.

After dinner, he proposed to Ms. Deer, what do you say let's elope? Ms. Deer said, sure, let's do it! The couple then happily leaped away and disappeared into the mountains.

On the next morning, Mr. Rooster came to knock on Mr. Deer's door, but nobody answered. He became nervous, and quickly asked around but nobody knew where Mr. Deer had gone.

Uncle Dog woke up, and when he found that Mr. Rooster had not returned his antlers as promised, he became furious. To this day, Uncle Dog's children still chase after Mr. Rooster's children for this reason.

The antlers started growing on Mr. Deer. To this day, only male deer have antlers, not female.

Every morning, Mr. Rooster would get up early and make his plea, "Return the deer antlers to Uncle Dog!"
