Overboard by Chip Dunham for July 13, 2017

Nate—big guy with a big heart. Raymond—Hot doggie! He’s one totally cool dude!

Wow, actual eyes shown! Not something that is commonly seen in this strip. :)

Tbh when you tried thunder just over your position it is understandable dogs get tocuhed by it. Since they got better hearing than we do.

I remember when dogs weren’t afraid of anything. I think humans have bred out courage.

Thunderstruck.

Good morning, Crew!

And now you know why every reader LOVES Overboard. The “ayes” have it today. Thank you Chip.

Most Labs are not afraid of loud “bangs” – including thunder – because they’re bred as hunting dogs.

Everyone needs a safe pair of arms now & again X

Our dog’s too simple to be bothered by thunder. It’s the cat who goes hiding in the cupboards when its storms.

My dog barks at the door when there is thunder like he is warning it not to come in.

Thunder and lightning aren’t just sounds and lights to dogs. They feel the energy in all their little nerve endings. After years of suffering, I found that simply covering my dog with a blanket when storms or fireworks started, kept him calm and sleeping.

Raymond, it’s O.K. We all have something. Some of us, many things!

What a guy, Nate. Awesome as always, to the dogs and everyone.

Good Evening, Crew.

OH MY! LOVE LOVE THIS ONE! As many years as I have been reading this I just love this side of Raymond! First time I ever saw it. :-)
