Garfield by Jim Davis for August 23, 2023

Yeah…might have to think of something else.

Seems legit. On a related note, an old Far Side had someone invent a device which could translate dog barks, and all the dogs were shouting, “Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!”

Peanut butter.

You tell him Odie.Apparently it is a complex answer.

I don’t know. But I think the answer is going to be a bit ruff…

A nice juicy steak should do the trick. A bit expensive though.

This is appropriate…my sister was woken up this morning by the amplified sound of the dog that lives in the house on the corner barking his little head off!

Odie answers questions the same way I do

I hate barking dogs, especially those little white things with their shrill yap yap yap

OK then. Move away. That’s probably what Odie is saying.

Give it time. How long do dogs live?

Put a muzzle on him.

Now that you mention it, how come dogs don’t have peanut allergies?

“GET TO THE POINT!”

(imagines a different version of this part of the dialogue of this cartoon)

THAT’S A LOT!

You could always try reenacting “Old Yeller”…

sigh I guess we’ll never know

From an old Peanuts cartoon, back when Snoopy was just a dog: “That’s not his burglar bark. that’s his barking for the sake of barking bark.”

I think Odie has already proven that point, Garfield.

laced with ex lax, the neighbors have to deal with one end and the owners have to deal with the other end…

Easy — stop putting them up the wrong tree!

To paraphrase Groucho Marx: “He must’ve been inoculated with a phonograph needle!”

Agree peanut butter

Odie usually has his big tongue out when barking.

he is making a point…his own special way.

Gafrilde is os silly

I’m with you, Garfield.

I think that was the point Garfield.
