Fred Basset by Alex Graham for December 08, 2023

Fred! Shame on you leaving Jock there by himself. He stood with you the other day. True there were others, but he stayed true to your friendship. You owe him the same.

Hang in there Fred!

Fred!! You stay there to back up Jock. You could bite the bully on the leg.

Well, we know who the coward is!!!

Throw your friends to the wolves, huh?

Fred, you know better than to leave Jock to defend himself.

Just an advance to the rear …

OUR HERO, Fred, is a ‘lover( of sausages and ’ choco-bits’) not a fighter

Fred is not a true friend. Sad.

OMG Fred! Being a fair weather friend is not a good look

Fred! Stand with your friend!

A real dog, with real emotions. OK, with real HUMAN emotions!

The better part of valour.

Shame on you, Fred!

For once, I cannot give this strip a “Like”.

Though Scottish Terriers are scrappy and not to be underestimated, Fred should stay at Jock’s side.

Fred ……. you’re just going to get reinforcements …… “RIGHT” Fred …….. Fred ……. “FRED” …….Right ….. ;O

We learned back when we had ours, to never underestimate a Scottie! Ours once backed down a Rottweiler in a PetsMart.

Fred you should stand with be Jock

I think Jock is the one being a bully. Typical small dog terrier behavior. If they had just walked on the big dog would have ignored them.
