Peanuts by Charles Schulz for September 22, 2023

I wonder if Marcie knows where she’s really going? It wouldn’t do her any good to warn her since she never listens.

Poor Patty, she is inside out again…

Shouldn’t this one have been before yesterday’s?

Isn’t it weird in the second and third panel you’d think that it is Peppermint Patty speaking, yet the speech balloons are pointing to Marcie as if Marcie was speaking those lines??

A choke-chain is not species-appropriate husbandry for dogs – not even for Patty.

That would look good on Snoopy.

Marcie isn’t even gonna try to explain. She knows that Peppermint Patty isn’t gonna listen to her anyways.

Where in the world is her father? Does she live alone? This is unbelievable, even for a comic strip.

Wait until you find out, PP!

Maybe she could wear the choke chain as an ankle bracelet?

What is a choke chain?

Marcie or Chuck could try to explain the purpose of an Obedience School to Peppermint Patty, but they both know the lights are on, but nobody’s home.

Apparently Ace has no problem taking her money despite the fact she doesn’t have a dog.

Is this out of order? Didn’t she arrive to Ace yesterday?

I believe that Patty should be wearing a black leather jacket with those chains to complete the Biker Chick motif!

not much different than a “choker” necklace/collar PP. just look at it as a kind of fashion statement

Choke chain collars are bad!

A choke chain to impose discipline? This is getting dark.

A choke chain? Very kinky.

She will return with a shiny coat and a taste for biscuits.

Sure that’s not a school for S/M enthusiasts?

Going for the “Gothic” look?

Instead of an apple for the teacher, do you bring a Milk-Bone?

That’s why kids are not allowed to sign contracts…

That’s a dark “gag”!

Some kind of BDSM training?

Peppermint Patty has always been a little species-blind when it comes to realizing that Snoopy is a dog. Apparently this condition extends to other aspects of canine life, such as obedience school.

The sad thing is in today’s world a kid decides to be a furry and dresses up like a dog or cat could get enrolled here.
