Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for October 21, 2020

And if you take career advice from your dog, you might as well stay home anyway.

Do you believe in portents of doom? If you do, Phil, then just turn around and walk back inside. Call in sick. Tell them you need to look after a family member – the dog.

Sometimes, the world is telling you to go back to bed, and, sometimes, the world is right.

Well, at least that’s what Ralph wants to believe. Again. However 14 days in a row isn’t going to sit well with his boss.

Binkley is known for his psychic abilities. Going back inside is good, going back to bed is good, but if you know Binkley as we do, hiding in the closet for the next 3 months is the way to go.

He forgot to feed Blinky.

Binky was in the K-9 Corps, and he likes to care for his folks.

And so he didn’t and was fired for for taking too many sick days.

Binky can smell the ham sandwich in the briefcase, and all HE got this morning was the dry crap.

Seeing how Phil has been retired for 12 years; this is a good idea.

Listen to Binky!

… or someone has a cookie behind his back.

That.. would work for me. Dogs have an uncanny ability to sense doom so why tempt fate.

Binky is trying to tell his “master”, you haven’t fed me!

Our dogs said, “Don’t leave us alone!” every day. They forgave us for leaving and welcomed us home every night.

Eventually, RalphPhil agreed with BinkyBinkleyBlinky, that it was all just too confusing… ☺

Everything useful, I learned from my dog.

Binky knows whereof he gazes.

BEST trained dog… EVER!! :>)
