Pickles by Brian Crane for April 22, 2020

Oh sure,Opal automatically blame,Roscoe. You also have,Muffin. What cats never tear anything up.

imagine this kind of chat with Chaz and Poncho of “Pooch Café”

Maybe the cute puppy look will get you off the hook….

Earl did it

Dogs only believe in realtime bones. They know no “figurative” bones.

Great expectations don’t always come true!

The cat walked up to the paper shredder and said: “Okay….teach me all you know.”

I love Roscoe… especially since he hasn’t been anthropomorphized.

Roscoe just want to please,!

Opal where is the proof ? There are several other actors in your house ;-)

Great job, Opal…get him all excited for nothing!

Be careful what you say.

Is that a pillow stuffed with soil?

To Roscoe, all is sounds like she’s saying is “bone”!

Opal doe snot love Roscoe even though he loves her, she always sees him as the bad guy, and often it is the cat Muffin that is at fault.

Uh oh! Trouble in Pickle land! LOL

She blames Earl for everything else.

What is he doing in P1?

Brian Crane is the best cartoonist I’ve seen in ages, he makes humor out of thin air, steady hand, nothing exaggerated, God is he good or what!

Yikes! Thought that was Rosco ripped in half in first panel for a second!

Bla, bla, bla, BONE bla, bla.

What, Opal? You’re not going to blame Earl?

I can’t make out the picture of what’s on the floor in panel one.

Antecedent. Behavior. Consequence.

She just offered a positive consequence, something desirable as a result of the bad behavior.

Never scold or punish a dog if you haven’t actually caught it in the act (of doing something unwanted). It won’t understand and will think it’s being punished for something else.

Awwwww! Roscoe is such a super cutie!
