Red and Rover by Brian Basset for August 01, 2010

I’d say you’re about due for a bath, Rover.

The stain is secondary to the smell of whatever he was rolling in.

Rover is being replaced by Sid the sloth

cool cool cool! again, great art.

Happy dog!!

You should see a white dog when they do this. Loved it when mine did that! :P The brown dog doesn’t show it.

Awesome work, Brian. Always one of my faves!

My husky comes out with a tint of the green from doing this. LOL

I don’t have a dog, but the expression on Rover’s face just makes me want to get one so I can smile at his enjoyment.

Actually, Rover doesn’t need a bath. That will all go away in a day or two. My white/yellow labs wrestle each other in the grass and come in with grass stains, but they always go away on thier own in a day or two. Loved watching Rover roll in the grass, it’s so life like!

The original line had something like “You’re right, Black Labs can’t get a good summer grass-stain” – but I decided instead to keep it positive and more free-flowing. The final dialogue sounded more like something Red would say. Thanks again for the nice comments – they really mean a lot! -BB

Your art work means a great deal to your readers. Thank you Mr. BB.

Thanks, Brian.. Love your work.
