Answer:
The farmer’s dog is big, black and so old that he can’t “chew his food anymore.” Like the human characters in the story, his frailty makes him aggressive: he runs out and barks at the three men as they pass, but when Kenny, pretending to be a dog, snarls back, the dog retreats, “peeing a little” as he goes, incontinent through fear or age. Kenny shoots the dog dead at the request of the farmer who is unable to do the deed himself. (hope this helps)
