Fred Basset by Alex Graham for June 28, 2020

Good boy Fred wouldn’t want Dear walking into a pole. Although it would serve him right if you did.

Let him run into anything and everything, Fred.

Darn good thing too. Too bad he has his nose in that stupid phone instead of paying attention to you and enjoying the walk.

Mr Dear you just failed the walking test ;-)

To properly “Walk” a dog, one must be paying attention TOO the dog. Otherwise, one has gone on a stroll holding a leash. And serve you right if the creature at the other end lets you walk into poles, pot-holes, and mud puddles.

enjoy the walk and fred – @$#& the phone

I often wonder what would happen if Smartphones disappeared, I think people would g nuts. People seem to never stop looking at the phones like they are part of their hands, I wonder if some people sleep with them too.

Walking my dogs, two would go on one side of the pole and one on the other. Not a problem as I don’t text and walk.

Humans seem to be getting dumber eh Fred?

No phone here, but something interesting across the street has caused fire hydrants to suddenly appear.

It’s got to be a really good, interesting, and very important reason to be looking down at your phone and then walk into a pole.

Too many people OWNED by smart[dumb]phones, & totally unaware of reality! Don’t need, have or could afford one, much less have the time in life for this kind of deadly distraction. But do have a rarely used jitterbug for emergencies!

Fred is a Very Good Boy and deserves a treat when he gets home.
