Fred Basset by Alex Graham for October 15, 2013

Aren’t we a picky one Fred.

A human error to leave yummies within Fred’s reach !

They’re onto you Fred — that’s why they “boobytrapped” it with garlic-chili sausage!

I daresay there’s a bit of “Fred slime” left on those sausages!

Yuk – i totally agree with you Fred! better luck next time…

My first dog as a child was a lovely wirehair terrier. Didn’t understand dogs then. My father had brought home a beautiful blueberry pie one evening. Left it on the table while we ran out to the store. Got back and half the pie was gone. The dog swore he hadn’t touched it, looked innocent as new cream. Problem was, the blueberry was ALL OVER his cute little terrier whiskers as he smiled and wagged at us.

Negative Fred reinforcement

Why do they always leave the sausages out on the table? Even if they didn’t have a dog who might snitch them, they need to be refrigerated before cooking.

Garlic and chili pepper are YUM to me.

So, Fred’s parents have discovered sausage kryptonite in garlic and chili pepper :)

Good boy, Fred. Garlic is another one of those things (like onion and chocolate) that is bad for dogs.

Garlic is extremely poisonous to dogs and cats. I think they are trying to off Fred for the insurance money or want to watch him die in agony as his red blood cells explode and anemia sets in:

I don’t like chili pepper and I in Texas where there’s Mexicans who use it a lot….I’ll use chili powder however
