3. It doesn't really specify what time he sleeps but it's probably a mix of early most of the time and late sometimes depending on his chores. He probably eats a nice small breakfast meal, know that it was the mid-1900's, it was simple. When it talks about him in the morning it usually just explains the chores he's going to do during the day.
4. The climax took place was when Old Yeller ended up getting rabies. What was also observed was that the story was told from a first-person point of view.
