Red and Rover by Brian Basset for September 21, 2022

Little Red is such a cutie.

All that sleeping in class… just wasted!

Now Red is jealous of a rag doll.

I hope Red won’t be mad at his mom.

After all, it was really sweet of her to make that toy for Rover.

Maybe after Red finishes his homework, Rover’s energy will be restored and then they can play.

Little Red is the perfect snuggle size!

Maye Red needs a little Rover

So cute the way Rover is snuggling up with Little Red!

I hope Little Red doesn’t have an “accident”.

poor Red

I guess Red will need to take a pre-dinner nap. IIRC, Rover makes a good pillow.

Uh ooooh! MOOOOOOOM!

Big Red is upset because if Rover is napping with Little Red, then Big Red has no excuse to not get his homework done.

I know it’s a stretch, but I can’t help being reminded of the Amlingmeyer brothers, Old Red and Big Red, who try for a career change from cowpunchers to private detectives in Steve Hockensmith’s “Holmes on the Range” series of humor-inflected mystery novels set in the Old West:

Awww… Red needs to somehow make up with Rover. But the new toy will be chewed up soon.

Cute pose in the last panel.

Hoo boy……….. Poor Red.

Awww, poor Red.

Oh Rover, how could you do this to Red?
