I dunno. Why couldn’t CB get a dog that wasn’t a dud?
And I must say, I’m proud of Charlie for giving up on the kite. Accept that you’ve practised enough and just don’t have the knack; move on to another hobby. It feels a bit strange knowing this is definitely the last time he’ll every try to fly one.
When I was a kid, and tried to fly a kite, my dog would get in the way, too, but only by nunning with me and entangling my legs, not sleeping the day away on top of his house. You have only yourself to blame for your predicament there, Snoopy.
The title panel shows a Bicentennial kite with U.S. Flag stars and stripes since 1976 (when this strip originally run) was the Bicentennial year. Even Kellogg’s offered for its 1976 Stick Up For Breakfast Contest with entry a Stick Up For Breakfast Bicentennial Kite.

I don’t know Snoop, a rancher might have made you do ranch dog work.

You were so close to flying Snoopy. You just missed it by a nose.

Reminds me of the Snoopy balloon in the Macy’s parade. Thanksgiving came early this year.

If that had happened, it wouldn’t have been much of a comic strip.

Why can’t Charlie Brown get a kite in the air?

You would be responsible for alerting the rancher about predators, Snoops.

Ahh . . . March and kite season. Charlie Brown and his kite. One of my most treasured memories of the halcyon days of youth.

Why, Snoopy? The same reason you’re not a normal dog like everyone else..

Don’t kid yourself, Snoopy. Author, Joe Cool, World War 1 Flying Ace, Masked Marvel etc. would have had no place on a ranch.

This has me feeling somewhat nostalgic and tempted to build a box kite. I think I might have an old roll of kite string someplace and some glue…hummm.

Whenever Snoopy engages with Charlie Brown, there’s always strings attached.

If you went to Wyoming, Snoopy, you’d mostlikely be chased by a coyote.

Never mind the kite-eating tree. Worry about the dog-eating kite
