Dog Eat Doug by Brian Anderson for January 15, 2021

I’ll guess the right answer is ‘Lassie’.

Dougie: “Bak!”

Dad: “That’s right! Annie gets a treat!”

Its rarely Sophie, but dad keeps hoping

I hear some people saying that over and over again to their dogs. I mean after the 8th or 9th time I think they even get a little irritated that the dog doesn’t say anything. I’m thinking, “You realize they don’t talk, right?”

I remember when I talked like that to my doggie, he became one big tail… ☺

Did I miss when this strip went into reruns?

The correct answer to this question is Annie.

There is a prize for getting it right. Deploy the correct puppy eyes and tail, and Dad may give a treat.

you’d think after all this time that he would know how to get the answer he is looking for……A TREAT!

Fortunately dogs aren’t that cognizant of things———yet.

Sophie: You talkin’ to me?

Annie’s a good girl.

I suppose my left ahead answer would be RinTinTin. When the brain filters through a question, often you choose the answer that is last on your list, and you don’t realize it until that option is verbalized and another thought plops into your natural brain filtration system.

Why waste time answering a rhetorical question? Besides, she can’t talk…
