Sic ’em, Yeller!

Remember Uncle Hardin chasing Yeller and all of us kids chasing Uncle Hardin.  Yeller didn’t like Uncle Hardin much and was very protective of us kids!
Uncle Harden chasing Yeller with a stick for biting him because he had scared us kids and we had screamed and were chasing Uncle Harden screaming at him not to hurt our dog.

During the summer time we loved to sleep outside.  This was when we lived in the Coulee.  We’d take our sleeping bags and sleep on the grass.  Uncle Hardin liked to come in the morning and try to pull us out of our bags.  He was just having fun, as were we.  But Yeller would hear us screaming and thought we were getting hurt, so he would bite Uncle Hardin.  Uncle Hardin didn’t take too kindly to that.
