Once there was a dog

Once there was a dog who managed to steal a piece of bread from a butcher shop. He was in a bid to find a safer place, where he can sit and gnawl the piece of bread. While he trotting on the bridge over the stream, he happened to see his own reflection down the water/stream, and he was happy to see another dog in the water with the thought of he can steal that piece of bread also. He suddenly jumped down the stream and in order to grab the other piece, he widened the mouth, so the piece which was in his mouth fell down and went deep inside the water. Finally, the dog climbed up the bridge with nothing.

Please correct my sentences.

What was the moral of the story?
I know moral of the story, but I couldn't able to express it properly. Maybe...........Greediness ends in the desperate situation.
