The Elizabeth version of today’s comic strip

My son’s Goggies put up with a heck of a lot from a crawling toddler!

That was a good old goggie.

I feel bad for Farley. He’s old and she’s just tugging on him. It’s not cute.

Babies and children should be taught not to abuse dogs or any animal in such a manner as April has done.

Our dog would attentively watch over our toddler – soon as toddler got in touching distance , he would stand up walk out of the room – through the dining into the kitchen through the foyer and plop down on far side of room and resume watch.

I think ‘Farley’ showed admirable restraint and just walked away from ‘April’ ! ! !!

A good and patient pup. Not all dogs love it but those that do, really do.

Lynn’s Comments:

I was always impressed by the amount of patience our dog had with young children. He put up with things I would never have expected him to tolerate. I guess he knew that “puppies” need patience.

Adorable! Irritating that, for the rest of the day, I’m going to be saying Goggy around here.

He’s not a toy…..

If I were Goggie, I’d bite her.

That was my dog Watson when our kids were that age!

Farley is SUCH A GOOD GOGGIE!!! My mini shar pei girl loves kids . . . TO A POINT. She’s chomp poor April!:( And my chihuahua, Max, chomps ME!XD

Poor Farley. April needs to be watched more closely to avoid Farley getting abused.

My, Goggie…..waff big teef you haff!

Poor Goggie… I mean Farley.

And to think, he’ll still sacrifice his life to save her.
