Pooch Cafe by Paul Gilligan for August 30, 2021

Oops…

oh, great, that pooch’s yapping will give the neighborhood three times a headache at night!

Poncho, meet Cerberus!

… and “they” actually moved in from … a place that rhymes with “The Gates of Bell”

So Poncho did the new dog tell you what this “Bell” place is like ?

Unusual accent, though.

Apparently they didn’t realize that evil already lived in that neighborhood.

Careful Poncho. I’m thinking they are just trying to make friends with you to steal your toys. They have a lot of issues.

When you combine three chihuahuas.

Wouldn’t the new dog and his brothers all be new dogs?

Must have been a typo in the bark.

New Bad Boy(s) in the neighborhood…..

Take them a welcome basket, Poncho.

Before I retired, I worked in an office where the alarm system was called Cerberus. So I had to pass the gates of Hell on the way to my desk every day.

Many many bowls does a 3 headed dog eat from?

Things became very awkward when Poncho invited one of the new dogs over, but not the others.

I remember reading the book “101 Dalmatians” when I was in fifth grade, long before either movie was made, and my favorite scene was when the dogs of London were speaking to each other via barking. The author was very descriptive of the types of barks, and how and why the dogs communicated. Then when the litter of puppies were abducted, that communication network went into full emergency mode. Reading the book always gives more details than a movie ever can!

Like the twilight bark from ‘101 Dalmatians’.
