My parents used to have a dog who hated having somebody hold her leash. And she was extremely well-trained, and had no real need for a leash. But rules were rules… so my parents clipped a leash to her collar, and then put the other end of it in the dog’s mouth, and she trotted along at their side, faithfully never going more than a couple of feet away.
Nobody could complain that the dog wasn’t on a leash, because she was most definitely on a leash… and there was nothing about where the other end should be.
PCHEMCAT AND SALLY, I have a few “Favs” here, and Overboard brought me to gocomics *way back like 2006 ?, because my local paper stopped carrying it! GOCOMICS should pay Chip extra for that, because I know I’m not the only one! :-)

An alternative loophole would be to hold the leash yourself, as the pets of Housepets! do occasionally.

I honestly think that in this world there are some people who need to be on a leash more than any dog! :-)

Better rein in your enthusiasm with the ticket book there, Officer Not-All-That-Friendly!!
Happy holiday weekend, crew…

Louie and Jonas (I assume it’s Jonas) is sort of like seeing a Newf being walked by a 6 year old.

Overboard makes my heart smile more often than any other comic. Thank you, Chip Dunham.

Me too. Sometimes brings a tear to my eyes. It is so sweet.

Those technicalities will get ya if you’re not careful. Hopefully Louie will escape this one without incident, though.
Good Evening, Crew.
