He was a &#8220;fly-up-the-creek&#8221;! He was a short-fused little bomb ready to blow up at any moment, and you never knew just what was going to make him blow up. But he got over it quickly.

But as for temperament, he was just like Mama. He was always slow to anger and very tolerant. And emotional. Now see, Claudia was like Frank and Lee. She didn\u2019t cry.

We were out chasing cattle away from our fences. We were on a steep hillside, and this old cow had a calf and Glenn was getting too close to her calf, I guess, because she just whirled and charged him. You could just see a golden streak and that cow was down the hill just end over end. Our dog Bob had come from, lord knows where, and Glenn said he never knew where he was either. But all of a sudden, heading for that cow was a golden streak and he just jumped and grabbed her by the nose, by the nostrils, and sat down. That cow just rolled over the top of him and rolled clear to the bottom of the steep mountain. If it hadn\u2019t been for that dog, Glenn wouldn\u2019t be here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Bob is the dog that used to take a skunk to the creek and wash it off. When Glenn and I would be up wandering along the creek up there, every once in a while, we\u2019d run into a skunk. Of course, it fascinated Bob and he\u2019d go after it. He knew it was going to hurt but he went after it anyway. He\u2019d get a hold of it and drag it out from under its pile of bushes or whatever it was under and take it down into the creek and just wash it and wash it and wash it, and just shake that thing and he\u2019d bring it out on the bank, and it still stank, so he\u2019d take it back to the creek. I don\u2019t know how many times Glenn and I stood there and watched him take that skunk into the creek and wash it off and come back out with his eyes just running tears. That stuff is hot, I guess.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">I think we\u2019ve covered quite a bit.
