Red and Rover by Brian Basset for January 22, 2022

I have such a pillow! It doesn’t look like a dog. But I imagine in my head, it’s Rovers soft belly. I can sleep better since I do so, and my state of health is better!!

Pure genius! Red is one smart kid.

At store just saw cute stuffed animals that were very heavy called WARMSIES….you put them in microwave and then hug the warmth

Lemonade, Hot coco, and now custom dog pillows. Step aside Musk, here comes ROCKET RED! TM the idea and hook up with the My Pillow guy. The two of them with Rover would a hilarious TV commercial. We all know how much Red loves TV. Ha

I hope Rover gets royalties for this idea. A lifetime supply of Milky Bones would be a good start!

Good idea! Who doesn’t like a soft billowy pillow….

Good thinking, Red! :-))

Cute idea but going to the shelters to adopt the real thing would be better for all. ;-)

Sorry Red, but you have to consider that some folks find those little (rat dogs as I call them) just the right size and adorable as they are.

It would probably be best to make those in both sizes so they have the choice.

What splendid idea!!!

But you must be able to sew such dogs!!

I know it is at least 50 years later from the time period of the strip but we have one our my wife’s dog. Looks lifelike and life size. Freaks out the dogs sometimes.

I can cook, but not sew! I’m more interested in compute!!

Back in 19th century England some people would take their dogs to church in winter and used them as foot warmers.

Great idea, Red! I still have a toy dog like that from childhood. Still a prized possession!

My dog is too small to use as a pillow, but she sometimes uses me as one. Or lies on my feet at night. They like our body warmth, too.

Small pillows could be all the rage. Of a chihuahua though? Not sure.

If it will bark or release any kind of bodily fluids, I am not buying it.

I am my dog’s pillow, she is fine with it, I am fine with it, that is good enough for me.
