He hides the dog in the hay of the barn hoping Lennie will not find it, but then digs it back up and thinks Lennie will not be mad because he did not care for the dog. Then Curley's Wife comes up the loft so he then hides the dog but she ends up finding the dog. They start talking about animals and she says she likes animals, tells Lennie a story about how her mother wouldn't let her enter the traveling show. Then she allows him to pet her.
