Yeah, this plot arc has overstayed its welcome. Love the strip, but poor Little Dog has enough troubles without seeing the world upside-down for a week.
Besides this going on way too long and way too unfunny, it is really hard to read this thread right now when a kid died and made national news falling into a crevasse on a glacier just before this storyline started. I know he had to submit the arc long before it happened, but they had time to pull it and sub rereuns. Really hope in this case LDL doesn’t run in the paper where the kid was from.
Just one other thought, we all assume the strip will end with LDL finding a home, but that is not the only alternative. The last thing he did before getting stuck was help his friend. Just saying, we probably need to brace ourselves that Steve may not give us a pretty ending after all, but a more realistic one for a long lost dog. Maybe not this episode, but it would probably start with LDL doing something altruistic at his own expense.
Perhaps the desperate situation the hummer is in will rouse LDL, and he will extricate himself from the hole in order to revive/save the little hummer.

Has this world drifted into the Funkyverse?

I’m getting claustrophobic. Imagine how LDL feels. Get him out of there. Maybe some kind, friendly human will help for a change!

I also am getting to feel a bit frantic. LD has been down there something like 2 weeks! In real life he would be bordering death.
