Garfield by Jim Davis for February 10, 2021

Poor Odie…….

Odie looks pretty ec-STATIC.

Boy, Odie will dig up anything.

SHOCKING !!!

Over here in my town power lines are above not underground.

I guess Odie failed to notice the “call before you dig” sign.

Odie will have to get a council permit, before he digs a hole in the ground to bury his bone.

At least Odie didn’t do this … https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N8fwtkC5UJU

By the way, does Odie appear every Wednesday?

Dear ask a dog: Why do dogs bury their bone, without thinking where they are going to dig ?

Garfield: Because dogs have no sense of direction.

OHMg!!

He should be thankful that he didn’t hit a sewer pipe.

…and the power line hit back…hard.

At least the bone is now well done.

Odie extra crispy.

If we had power lines underground here, we’d all always get shocked because of the ever leaking water supply pipes.

Classic smoke from the tail…

Some dogs just never dig it…

Looking miserable today, Odie. ;-)

YIKES! :I

Why you should call your power company before burying your bone, Odie!

Maybe it was an electric dinosaur skeleton.

Shocker!

How in StarClan did Odie hit a power line? I have to admit, no offense dog lovers out there, but I have never seen Odie look even more weird-looking! LOL

Could have been an invisible fence….

Odie should have called 811 before he dug.

Why would they’re be power lines near the ground

Had a dog back in the day – he chewed on the Fridge cord….once. He survived. I sorta wish I could have seen his face when he discovered his error.

Isn’t there a number you’re supposed to call before you start digging?

idk he looks fine to me!

Poor Odie

how did you tell?

cioo;\

Man Odie must be real good at digging to hit one of those!

Ouch

Wow, what a…. " Shock "

This is why they have those “Call before you dig” signs.

Minecraft Rule #1: Never dig straight down.

Call before you dig.

I live in twin cities. One city has most lines underground so the streets don’t look cluttered with poles and lines. The other city has started to bury lines but it is a long and expensive process. The better looking streets have the lines running between the backs of properties.

I think Garfield shoulda told Odie in advance, but The Fat Cat was probably eating lasagna

I don’t know how Garfield doesn’t weigh 100 lbs by now hehe

Oldie! You should have called “Miss Dog”!

Miss Dog?

LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

But the bone is fine though right?

Eww

Odie electrocuted and fried himself all right today. Does he not know that bones are good conductors of electricity? #justcurious :)

Expressions of distress are better here than just about anywhere else. Makes my day.

ouch!

They say dogs and their owners start to look alike. Odie sure looks like Jon today.

Must have been quite a shock.

the most important lesson DON’T DIG
