Need the definition for “Sukey”?
As used in the Little House on the Prarie books (particularly Little House in the Big Woods, page 55) I think its being used to call cows home, but why did he say “Sukey”. A definition would be great! Thanks!

Was it the name of one particular cow? There’s usually one who leads the others (the bossy one). I’ve never heard it in reference to cows before.
