Pickles by Brian Crane for January 17, 2021

If your breath brothers you Roscoe. Go lool around the house. Maybe you can find a peppermint or two laying around.

a dog worrisome about its own bad breath… wow

Altoids are made by Callard & Bowser

Awww…we love you anyway.

Roscoe is more mature than Buckles who is still warning off that dog on the other side of the glass in his house. Roscoe got the whole strip to himself!

Hey Roscoe, there is Milk Bones which on the old commercial said cures “Bad breath in Dogs”!

Hi Roscoe, welcome back we had not seen you in a while!

Roscoe if your breath is that bad beware of Opal slamming something down your throat to cure it !

Roscoe, not a Mutt, but a “Designer Dog”!

Someone’s going to be ecstatic today, brace yourselves!

Roscoe you are beautiful.

Opal need to buy you breath treats….and to feed you diet nuggets!

An all Roscoe strip and Erben2’s not here to see it?

ERBEN2 must be in heaven today!

Like Roscoe, I can truthfully say that I engaged in some self-reflection this morning!

Where’s the dude who’s always demanding more Roscoe ? This ought be 7th Heaven for him.

If not dog breath, what type of breath does Roscoe want?

We’ve all been Roscoe at one point or another :)

I’m here and What a great surprise today , the whole script is about the precious Roscoe . And He is never a mutt , are you kidding me . Although I have friends that say that the best dogs that they ever had where mutts so that means that a pal is a pal whether he or she is . And thank you Brian for this wonderful script today and all is forgiven .

Roscoe, you are loved and that has made all the difference.

I know how you feel…it’s the same thing I see, in the mirror…a pudgy MUTT!

I love Pickles

I know the feeling.

It`s the only kind of breath you COULD have, you`re a dog.

Hey……. cheer up – At least you “think” in ENGLISH..!!!!

Roscoe achieves self awareness

Roscoe in the title panel is what “hangdog” looks like. Well done, Mr. Crane!

Time to get some greenies for him.

He needs to bark at himself to complete the picture.

Never change, Roscoe. We love you just the way you are!

But your a cute Pudgy Mutt Roscoe !

Bad breathe in a dog is indicative of tooth and gum problems. That can lead to infections that land in other parts of the body— the heart is first choice. If your dog has bad breathe, see a vet and fix it.

Depressing

I also avoid mirrors. But I’ve noticed mine takes about 20 pounds of spare tire off me, for which I am grateful. I’ve read that men see themselves as fitter than they really are in a mirror, and women see themselves as fatter. “Body dysmorphic disorder”.

Sadly, when he turned around to go nose to butt, both began spinning so fast the vet had to give them ADHD shots.

I had a golden retriever and loved her dearly. She has been gone for a little over 5 years and I still miss her terribly. But I do not miss the hair.Rosco, if they had wanted a golden retriever, they would have gotten one. You are precious as you are.

Our fur babies not notice, two of them, yuck, go for doggy doo.

He’s more self aware than Moondog’s parrot Pilsner.

I love the fact that Roscoe is still a dog, and not an anthropomorphic character in a dog suit. His expressions during the antics on the couch, or in the kitchen, or on walks, are always well done.

Nothing good comes from looking at yourself in the mirror.

Self – realization can hit hard!

Ugh!

Roscoe, you are a very good dog!

Golden Retrievers are great dogs, but I’ll take me a pudgy mutt over most breeds any day!

You are a sweet baby, not just a pudgy mutt. I have three pudgy mutts. They’re the best.
