Owner-operator Rusty Norris, of Quitman, Texas, was inside the truck stop taking care of business while his dog, Gretta, a beautiful seven-and-a-half year old rottweiler, sat in the driver’s seat of his truck in the fuel island and barked whenever anyone got near it.
However, it seems that Gretta wouldn’t hurt a flea, according to Norris, who said she only barks when someone approaches the truck, but otherwise she’s a sweetheart.
“She goes everywhere I go,” he explained. “If I get on the tractor at home that’s the only time she’s not with me. I tell everyone ‘she doesn’t leave home without me.’”
While Gretta is a constant companion of Norris, it was easy to see that the real apples of his eye are his 22-year-old daughter, Stephanie, who is a college student at Texas A&M at Commerce where she is studying criminal justice, and his 13-year-old son, Hill, who lives with his mother. And not to be forgotten is Norris’s girlfriend, Gail.
