For Better or For Worse by Lynn Johnston for July 01, 2009

What happens when you say bath time to Farley?

me thinks he doesn’t speak English - try Gaelic?

“Dinner!”

He would smell worse if he was wet.

Looks like you need to improve your training skills Michael.

He’s Canadian/Canadien, so he wouldn’t understand American. I don’t know how to say “bath time” in Canadian.

our lab would run to the bathtub when we put the kids in for theirs and try to get in

I had a dog that would hide behind the couch when I said that it was time for a bath. Then I had a dog that would jump in the tub when I said the same thing to her.

Get some tasty soap Michael (hint: ask mum to go to Pigtown and pick some up from one of the Indian grocers), then Farley will start loving baths!

What kind of stink Farley got from? I noticed the fourth panel; Farley smelled the tree. I assumed that Farley peed at that tree after he smelled. Y’all know that many dogs tend to smell and pee at those trees, bushes and many mores. I more likely think the smell from Farley’s urine became stinky!

Not Mr. Bubble, Gweedo–“Old Cinthol” is much more palatable to dogs.

We had a dog that would roll in cow pies just after we gave her a bath.

Where’s the Canada Day strip? Happy Canada Day to all the Canadians. :))
