Pooch Cafe by Paul Gilligan for July 23, 2010

Whoops! What did you say??!!

LEPER!

Well, with a litter that large, and considering they’re living under a porch, you couldn’t expect all of them to make it.

Poor puppy, it’s not easy being Whitey!

He he he, how i laughed at this…(sorry Whitey)!

Ya little runt.

Soon Whitey, you will no longer be runt of the litter.

I feel so sad for Whitey. When it is time to go, mom will know what to do.

I sense several options for Whitey - could go either way. If he survives, he could by quite the handful as an adult.

As sick as he is - he isn’t gonna taste too good…

Only the strong survive

There will come a Day And it seems real soon A puppy will ask “What happened to Whitey?” And Mom will say ” He lives on the other side of the Moon”

Heh? What was that you said?

Next he’ll say he can still walk and his legs will fall off.

Poor Whitey, a leper can’t change his spots.

Poor thing it’s a shame I thought he was cute

An albino leper. If by a twist of fate he survives, he might do well as a blues musician.

That’s awful!

My family has had several runt-of-the-litters as pets as they are wonderful dogs - they are intelligent and loving. They really begin to shine when you get them away from the rest of the litter. Whitey, it’s the bad influence of Porcho and Nocturna that’s bringing you down!

Whitey’s defoliating faster than a ficus in a bachelor pad.

An old girlfriend of mine had an all-white cat who had lost both ears fighting. He looked like a baby harp seal (a really ugly baby harp seal). I had a tremendous urge to club him.

I have to agree with Colin, I laughed out loud….poor thing!

I know someone who took a ‘runt of the litter’ pup from a breeder. Spent $$$ on vet care, cooked up special recipes for food that the dog could keep down. Gave the pooch 4 years of love no one could have expected the dog would have, until the end.

I’m not finding this part of the story particularly funny.

Need Jon Arbuckle and Liz right away!

Poor Whitey! :-(

haha. Sounds like me.

Not sure about dogs, but nothing isn’t quieter than a deaf cat. Air is much noisier.

I agree with Dirty Dragon, NOT FUNNY! Whitey better survive or I’m done with Pooch Cafe.

Jus don’t ask him to lend a hand. He might, literally.
