For Better or For Worse by Lynn Johnston for May 07, 2018

Oh, that was a brilliant idea, John

Your fault, Elly. You made him an outdoor dog, leaving him outside all day and getting into everything. If you had exercised a bit common sense, you’d keep him indoors and walk him instead, making sure he doesn’t get dirty as to keep your house clean.

@ENTITYCAPRICORNYWORNOUTYAWP: So, if John had opened the door, you would have said exactly the same thing about him, right? I’ve given up trying to figure out why women haters read ’toons that have women in them. I guess Entitias just enjoy posting sweet little gems about how terrible women are.

Here we have a little reminder that the Pattersons have a ravine in their backyard behind their fence with a running stream and also a reminder that the Pattersons tend to keep the door on their fence open (as we saw last year with the storyline where Farley got out of the yard and into their trash behind the fence pretty much whenever he wanted to).

It’s the opposite for me – if I open the door, my pooch will run out! If he came back, it wouldn’t be a problem… but, he doesn’t. (sigh)

Instead, it’s the not-so-beautiful part of the outside that comes in! That’s the way it goes!

What is it with women and going outside?

That’s why screen doors were invented.

For verisimilitude the mud drenched dog should be followed closely by a mud drenched child.

This is why I don’t have a DOG not 4 legged but two legged

welcome to my life. My dogs love it when I spray them with the hose…and then thank me by bringing their muddy paws indoors. Maybe that is why my floors are never spotless.

Farley looks like a wookie on all fours.
