Pooch Cafe by Paul Gilligan for April 28, 2021

you and your gullibility, Poncho

Yes, Poncho. Yes, you are.

Part of doggie parenting is tricking our pups into receiving necessary care they would rather avoid. A lot like child rearing actually…

“Resistance is Futile.”

For Poncho: “Resistance is Fickle” “Resistance is Fleeting.”

Geesh! So now and again put a pork chop in the tub. It’s worth the price now and again. Probably a major flaw in that idea. A raw hide?

The Pork Chop is under the Rubber Ducky Poncho ;-)

yes, yes you are, but there could be a treat for you after this torment is over… Maybe.

Sometimes, learning to “know yourself” is not a very helpful acquaintance.

Is that barbecue sauce in Chazz’s hand?

The Monty Hall problem, housepet edition.

Nothing like a soggy soapy pork chop – nope, nothing.

This is funny!!

Not cool. I get my dog to go downstairs, into the shower or into his kennel at night by actually giving him a treat.

Give him something for a reward……

Pork Chop flavor shampoo…can I invent that?!?

Just recently read NOT to shampoo or wash the dog with conventional soap. It forces the scent into the skin making it harder to remove. I would definitely consult the internet first. Sorry if pup needs to stay outside awhile.

Pork is not good for dogs.

I have this strip on my office door from years ago. Or, at least, I have a Pooch Cafe strip that has the dialog from the last two panels (i.e. Can I take that chance, and Even for a dog I’m an idiot). I know this for a fact, as I remember it, and a friend of mine brings it up regularly (he loves this strip). So, is the whole strip a repeat, or just the dialog being reused? I’d compare to the one on my office door, but currently working from home etc.. you know how it is.
