Aide 1: I can't believe how much food we pumped out of this little dog! Aide 2: And he thrashed the whole time like he was possessed! Aide 1: He needs some time in a recovery room. Aide 2: Let's put him in here. Poncho: Hey.... you're the waiter who tried to throw me out of the restaurant! Waiter: You're the little dog who herniated my back! Aide 2: Strategic room assignments really help speed up bed turnover.

okay, so we have a dog in a hospital or a human in an emergency vet clinic… REBOOT! There is no logical ending to this arc (though I have been surprised before).

People hospitals and animal hospitals are separate.

I’m beginning to lose interest in this strip.

Ok…so we have a talking dog who swallowed two whole hams and apparently has a lawyer on retainer and you expect him to be treated like a real dog?

Poncho looks so adorable when he is under – in the first pic. This is actually my favorite comic strip since Calvin and Hobbes and I still laugh over Calvin every day!! I think Poncho could have been trained by Calvin!!

So folks are surprised by a dog meeting a man he injured in a hospital recovery room, but the whole talking dog and doggie date in a fancy restraint did not raise any particular illogic flags? Comics people. Funny papers. enjoy

I LOVE Poncho! His behavior makes my 5 little dogs look like angels. Thanks, Poncho.

Dog in a hospital makes (comic) sense: they called the vet in the middle of the night, and there’s so much food involved that a dog-sized stomach-vac might not be large enough. Looking forward to whatever happens next!
