    A bow on a MALE dog’s head? That’s a bit too much.

    I remember when Farley was the size of a mouse.

    Yes just a tad too much human mothering here. Dogs would not like the perfume on them.

    I just love his expression when she’s hugging him. So cute!

    Lynn’s Notes:
    Farley, the real dog, hated baths. If he just heard the word, he’d head for the hills. I usually washed him outside, but during the winter, I would stuff him into the tub, which meant the entire bathroom got wet along with him. After I dried and brushed him, Farley looked like a massive plush toy, his fur poofing out as if he’d stuck his tail in a light socket. He would look like this until he had to go outside, where he’d find something dirty to roll in. He was a lot of work, but I didn’t mind. He was family…and a real character!

    Looks like the other comments missed the point. I think Lynn Johnston’s comic strip is the most thoughtful of all comic strips consistently. And may I add the most brilliant too.

    I used to have to strip off down to a pair of shorts when I gave my dogs a bath. I’d get every bit as wet as they did.

    I love this strip but can’t believe the picture they are using as a logo. The two of them have never looked like that in any strip I’ve ever seen…. and they just look stoooopid (stupid). Please put a more pleasing picture back up for lead-in (logo).

    She officially went over the top when she put perfume and a bow on the dog.

    Yeah, anything that doesn’t perform a function (i.e. a sweater on a small dog in freezing weather) is too much.

    We had a male poodle as I was growing up and whenever we had his hair cut they put a bow in his hair. No perfume though.

    Yeah, some of the new logos (like this and Frazz) are terrible
