Drabble by Kevin Fagan for January 24, 2013

you hope

Fagan MUST own a dachshund. He has their personality down PERFECT!!!!!!! I love reading the comic all the time, but especially love it when he has Wally in the cartoon. I wish he would publish a book just with the Wally cartoons. I see alot of his Wally cartoons on dachshund sites of facebook. Everyone loves them.BTW, I have 3 wiener dogs and 2 of the 3 won’t look at the VET and try to bury their heads in my armpit

Wally and Alice from “Cul de Sac” have the same philosophy, “Other people don’t exist unless you’re looking at them.”

Dr. Downboy? Cute.

One our Shelties had CRA. The vet said he probably only saw things in when they moved. When he didn’t want to be seen (after sneaking out the door, for example) He would stand very still.. We guess he figured if he couldn’t see us, we couldn’t see him.

I have a bull mastiff that has the same theory. as a puppy he would hide under a chair the vet had. seven years later he still does the same thing, only he’ s 29" at the shoulder & 145 lbs and all he can get under the chair is his head. when I move the chair he looks at me as if to ask, how did find me, I was so well hidden!

he looks like a moose here! :)-

and yes, a book of just Wally cartoons would be great!

Coasternut — just what I’ve been thinking, every point! He’s caught the essence of weiner dog. I’ve been cutting out Wally and Oogie strips, but since I found Go Comics I can stop mutilating the newspaper (and get color too). I’m emailing them to my daughter, whose daschund has been “helping” her through vet school. Go to Fagan’s website — he said he was planning a Wally book. Nag — I mean encourage — him.

My dog, the dog in my profile pic, shakes like that whenever I take her to the vets. What’s funny is, the vet in this comic looks like my vet if he were a cartoon!

I had a cat who would cover her eyes when I was looking for her to put her outside.

Ohhh comfort that poor sweetie, Ralph!
