Michael Ortwein may be proud of his horned steer doing the same job; but I’ll put up Wooz and her knife against him anytime.

    It is not a horned steer, it is a horned milking Devon, and I challenge Wooz to a race! We will both watch in the heated tractor, as my milking cow and Wooz compete. Remember, a man should not have anymore cows than his wife can take care off–words from a wise old rancher.
