Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for February 22, 2022

Going to need a big scooper for that desk.

If it pays the bills, why not?

I wonder where the cord is plugged in.

Go! Go! Go! Go!

And he does his business in an open space.

Is the pup doing stock exchange or something?

The dog is doing business with Pooh.

Urine trouble, Stephan.

It must be a deskshund.

At least it looks like the dog is paper trained.

Wall St. chihuahua

Dog gone it.

Chi-haw-haw!

Well, you wouldn’t like him doing his stinkin’ business in the home office like Stephan is doing with his humor?

That’s outrageous! This gag isn’t depressing or angry at all! Pastis, you’re not yourself today.

Looks like a Chihuahua! Must be doing international business

Get the man a throne! He’s king for the next, say, 10 Minutes.

Just wait until it wants to come inside to use your bathroom. Or rug.

What potty humor?

The potty-ness was (only assumed) in the mind of Rat & some readers.

This has to be one of the funniest ever!

Must be one of the working breeds!

Seems to be a rather small business.

I was expecting a lawn mower……..

He might be helping Stephan mine bitcoin.

Larsen did that one a couple of decades ago.

Woke up in a bad mood and needed a pun. But this will do.

I think the dog is a shih tzu!

Funny, Steph! More of this, please!

If I could only flush this from my memory.

Enjoy the go!

How’s he get past the mouse.

Squirrel, take a letter please…

Please! Curb your Pastis.

What did I say about puns?

I’d wager he’s emailing that bitch from accounting!

Is that a long-nosed chihuahua?

Doo doo what you doo doo so well….

Well, it is tax season….

Cute! I admit it, I laughed. Thanks Stephan!

What’s your problem, Rat? At least it’s not the other kind of ‘business’.

Well… Pig’s not wrong. I wonder if the dog is playing Wordle.

One thing has always been odd. Pigs are intelligent while goats are not. Weird

This amused me more than it should have. Well done, sir.

No matter which business, get the #@$% off my lawn!

He could at least have lifted his leg!

Can you imagine the size of the bag needed to clean this up?

If they’d set his water out by the big tree… it would be a pee tree dish.

Just the other day, I was wondering why, with all the animals in this strip, there were no dogs or cats.

Dogs are a lot more organized than I’d thought they were. Maybe it’s just my dog with the messy desk.

The whole toon is funny, but the second panel is down right hilarious! Great gag Steve!

Brave leader.

I love it when a comic makes me actually laugh out loud. It’s so good for the psyche.

Just “do it” outside, Pastis. ;)

Larson ripoff!

“I told my mama and my daddy the night before. If married women will kill me just watch me go.”another. floating blues verse

He is on their property, they need to charge him rent.

Two puns about number twos on twosday! Way to go!

G R O A N — LOLOL

On the whole, I’d rather not watch you go, Cartoon-Boy. Or should I call you Potty-Boy?

In truth, the lawn office was a cute conceit.

And, as all too often, Rat again failed to bring his bat….

Gives new meaning to the word “downloading.”

a two-for gag strip!

Probably sending e-mails telling people they’re on Federal police offenders list for immoral behavior on internet. (I got one too)

“And I’m getting PAID to DO it!”

That’s a dog?
