Drabble by Kevin Fagan for June 27, 2022

No one’s going to badger you about it

Think nothing of it, Wally. A lot of small dogs bark just to hear themselves bark.

I miss Wally’s “scattle, scattle, scattle” sounds.

My Doxie has hearing beyond mortal humans. I’ve learn to trust her barks.

Wally’s senior moment…

and the worst part about it is that it will happen more often as you get older, Wally!

Badgers, Wally. It was badgers.

Snoopy is a much better actor — he really looks embarrassed today.

been there, done that…..

Wait! What happened to Echo and her badger?

When that happens, BARK LOUDER!

I guess the scent of the badger is still around.

This is the case of The Purloined Badger. Hidden in plain sight. The penultimate weekday strip presented a difficult conundrum for Kevin to resolve. So he has taken a day off to contemplate his navel about it. He is conflicted as to what the next substantive strip should contain. Maybe he should consult with Bob about the situation. Maybe Bob could intervene between Wally and Mittens with some calming philosophical advice to them both. Or not.

There’s a badger in the house!

I KNEW IT! I KNEW dogs forgot why they were barking! Thank you, Kevin! ❤️
