Peanuts Begins by Charles Schulz for January 08, 2024

Goes to show that Snoopy is owned by CB in these early comics.

Charlie Brown could have thought it like counting sheep, the back and forth.

Snoopy is just being a good “guard dog” Charlie Brown!

We want to see Snoopy laying on that footboard.

When did Snoopy first lie atop his doghouse?

First indication of Snoopy thinking he’s a cat? Later he uses the same trick to sleep on his house.

This is how Snoopy ended up sleeping in (on) the dog house.

I wonder if Snoopy is a Treeing Walker?

Yup my cats do that. Is Snoopy a cat in disguise?

My cats to that to me at night, and chirrup to me as they’re doing it.

For a while in the early strips it wasn’t clear who actually owned Snoopy. Is this around the time he started belonging to CB?

This looks like Snoopy in training for his later life on the roof of his doghouse.

I can see a cat doing that, but never a dog
