Elizabeth: Browse The Strips

Lynn's Comments: I said in a previous note that the only thing my dog would bark at was the snow plow. I was wrong. He would also bark at squirrels. He’d stand at the porch window and wait for them to come to the bird feeder and then he’d bark like crazy. If I let him out, he’d run after them—with no hope at all of ever catching one. Eventually, this routine was as much fun for the squirrels as it was for the dog. They knew which window he would come to and which door he’d be coming from, and they’d taunt him until he was desperate. He made a lot of noise, but it didn’t bother anyone but me. It’s a good thing we lived waaaay out in the country!

Lynn's Comments: When I was working at the medical school, one of the artists had been doing a detailed illustration of a head with a cutaway section that exposed the brain, neck and oral cavity. I crawled into his studio, and when he wasn’t looking, put my head (like April is doing here) on his drafting table. I had never before heard a man scream like that!

Lynn's Comments: We know now that grapes and raisins can be very toxic to dogs, so Edgar had a lucky close call. Everyone please check with your vet to be sure which "people foods" your dog can tolerate!
