How does this excuse work in our digital papers days? Shouldn’t it be updated to “My cat walked over the keyboard and deleted all” ? (Or “My dog bit the plug off the wall before I saved my work”)
“Dear Ask A Dog, My tiger won’t eat my homework.” ~ signed Calvin BARK BARK BARK “Simply don’t do your homework and tell Ms Wormwood it was eaten by a tiger. That should work and kill two birds with one stone.”
Or, if it is my dog, act protective of the papers and tell him to stay as you set them on the table. Then walk away for a few minutes. His curious and slightly mischievous nature will compel him to grab them once you’re out of sight.

Nothing like a good dipping sauce to make the taste of homework linger on the tongue!

Peanut butter works well.

It is a waste of time to get your dog to eat your homework since teachers never believe that excuse anyway.

Use it to wrap his doggie treats in, Billy. That might work.

Dipping sauces should be dog oriented:
Garbage, cat-poop, or road kill flavored.

First “Ask a dog” of the year. I think the best sauce to use is BBQ. Dogs would go crazy for that.

Billy, if you already did your homework, why do you want the dog to eat it?

Are you sure that letter didn’t come from Calvin instead of Billy and instead of “dog” it should be “tiger”?

Wasn’t the dipping sauces comment also used in a previous strip when Jon was attempting to get Garfield to play with a rubber mouse?
