Luann by Greg Evans and Karen Evans for March 15, 2022

…And we watch as Puddle’s Shangri-la crumbles to dust. LOL

.

I have a feeling, Luann is going to get her dog back, really soon! =)

Possibly, Tiff takes Puddles to The Fuse and there Nancy spots him??

oh, won’t this be fun

does anyone know folks like Steph? Cheery and inconsiderate. Nice but not kind. Yet Aloof. i cant figure out if shes shallow as a puddle or deeply manipulative.

How did she get this far in life treating people like this?

Stef, you just keep on walking, right out of this strip, please.

Perhaps they’ll call Luann to help keep their “dorm dog”, not realizing she has been searching high and low for the same dog!

Hey Stef… Beware The Ides Of March!

I wish I could wake up as quickly as Tiffany after a sleepless night.

I think I can see where this story is going. Tiffany must take Puddles with her to work because Dez has allergies to dogs and no one will be there to watch him. She will ask if there is any safe place to keep Puddles while she works.

Puddles expression went from happy to “What just happened?”

LuAnn can babysit the dog, and lose it again.

See ya Stef.

Tiff take Puddles out for lunch at the Fuse.

If Dez were allergic to dogs she would have had an allergic reaction that time she came to visit Bernice atLuann’s house, because no matter how much they cleaned the house it would have been filled with dog dander. Greg is violating recent continuity to bring this arc too an end. Or perhaps De has caught covid…..

of all the characters that we could be exploring…

Much sympathy! I always wind up allergic to animals I love!

OK. Tiff brings Puddles to the Fuse because everyone splits except Dez and her allergy. She tries to hide him but that is when Nancy recognizes him? BTW, my opinion of Dez kind of dropped a bit here. I can see Bets or Stef going all gaga over picking up a stray (Stef is just an airhead and Bets saw an opportunity to put him on her social platform for more likes and views) but I really thought Dez might do the responsible thing and take him to the vet where they would find a microchip. Another thought, would TJ recognize Puddles if Tiff tried to hide him at the Fuse while she worked?

Is Tiffany going to take Puddles to the Fuse? Or more about Desdemona’s reaction to dog hair? Stefani Bird is leaving with her yoga mat ?

So the ghost of Tiffany past is walking out the door.

This is getting a little uncomfortable for dog lovers. If happiness was colorful balloons, Greg would run around popping them.

Would murdering Stef be considered “justifiable homicide”??

I’d like to think so!!

There’s going to be fireworks when LuAnn finds out they’ve had her dog. Tiff will get the brunt, I think, though she doesn’t deserve it.

Isn’t a Snerf the result of a Snork accidentally mating with a Smurf?

Steph is a Flake?

Didn’t see that coming.

Every time I see Steffi, I wonder where her brain is. Now, I know for sure. SFB…

Stefi is the one who can stay with Puddles. Missing a cheer practice is no biggie but she is treating it like a career. Yeah, a career of finding a husband off the football field.

“Auntie T” now, is it? That looks okay in print but if you say it out loud it’s a bit problematic.

Tiff sure cleans up well from yesterday’s strip.

Stef is the girl who nagged her parents into getting her a pet and then let them do all the work.

Shirks, deadbeats.

Maybe they could ask Luann to take care of him.

“Well Stanley…. This is another fine mess you’ve gotten me into!”

Look…I’m really done with this arc. Just return the dog let’s be done with it. I like Tiffany arcs but only if she starts them, not finish them

Well now.

Maybe this story will conclude this week, if Tiff takes Pud to the Fuse and hides him in the storage room. That’s provided Nancy finds him first and not Ox, Les or some zealot from the local health department..

Now if that’s the case, and a happy ending ensues, I wonder how the DeGroots will “reward” Tiffany for finding their lost pooch? An assistant manager job perhaps?

OR will ladies find someone else to “dog-sit” Puddles?

Like Kip or the G-Man?

Oh.

And congratulations to Stef for taking first place in the most Hated Character awards! ;-)

Another opportunity has presented itself. Tiff, train Puddles to pee on Stef’s clothes.

Stef is seriously horrible. She talk with the dog a little and then put all the weight on Tiffany (again) without any remorse, like if that is the normal way to do for her. What kind of spoiled child she is? About Dez, I hope that’s not allergy, but it’s nice to see how quickly Tiffany moved Puddles away from her face. She really care a lot♡. The diversity between Tiffany and and Stef is more and more evident, i like this because the comparison makes Tiffany shine.

Wait… none of these characters have been to Luann’s house ?

I can see a battle between Shannon and Stef for the title of most annoying character in the strip. I feel like Shannon holds the title for how many times she appears, but there is the rare strip in which she can be endearing. Stef has never been anything but a uber-selfish pain in the tuchus.

And still four grown women haven’t figured out they should have him checked for a chip.

so typically steff wants the cute puppy but none of the responsibility

The first thing I would do if I found a lost pup would be to get it to the nearest vet to see if its chipped.

Stef is going to be a horrible parent

Puddles is still having fun with the girls, so much fun, that maybe he will not want to go back to Luann. He has to go back to her.

I seem to be in agreement with a few of the other readers here. Tiffany is going to feel she has not choice but to take Puddles to work with her at The fuse where he’s recognized and gets back to his rightful home. I don’t think the writers will have a hard time stretching that out for four more days.

Goodbye, Stef. Please stay gone.

How does Tiff not know Pud belongs to Luann? She must have seen him at LuAnn’s house?

It’s been interesting to what Tiffany’s character development. She’s now by far the most responsible one in the quad — and Stef is clearly the least.

To serve dogkind.

And now we see the solution. Tiff takes Puds to work and someone recognizes him; Nancy, TJ or even Luann herself. OR Another person “adopts” him. OR He runs away again.

Dez is acting against character thru this whole arc.

Soon back to Luann’s where the poor dog has to hear nothing but Luann’s whining……

Honestly, who wears bows in their hair these days?

I really hate the cheerleader. She needs a comeuppance

Shouldn’t Tiffany recognize Puddles?

So Luann will only get her dog back because Puddles has become inconvenient to his finders, not because they initially made a serious effort to find his owner? (Sorry, Stef knew that the dog was lost far from the dorms so the postage stamp sized bulletin board notice doesn’t count…)

I certainly hope so!

First we get the reminder of the heartbreak of losing a pet, then the anger at people who steal other peoples lost pets. Now they show us the disenchantment when the stolen (or adopted) pet turns out to be less than perfect or their upkeep becomes inconvenient for people’s lifestyles (like so many puppies and kittens). Puddles has proven to be less than perfect for Tiffany and Dez, now all he has to do is knock over Bets’ video gear and chew up that cheer uniform and maybe they will finally do the right thing and go get his chip read. I agree with kauri44 – these girls should have tried to find his owner right when Stephanie “found” him (as he was on his way home).

Ah, the realities of pet ownership set in.

Funny how Luann was moving the entire world to get her dog back, even calling her firefighter brother when she though Shannon lost it, but now that it’s her fault he is missing she’s just standing by hopping for the best.

…aaand Stef is oblivious, as usual.

Isn’t Steph the one that brought the dog there in the first place?

Reality rushes in like the Johnstown Flood.

Puddles is a shorthair,can you be THAT allergic to one?

And there goes Steffi,running away from reality once more.I hope it turns out she’s allergic to pom-poms.

Did Dez not know she was allergic to dogs until now? You’d think that’s something that might’ve come up during childhood.

And next month,somebody abandons a rabbit on Steffi’s doorstep.

Uh oh. Dez is diseased! And it looks like her “natural remedies” aren’t gonna help this time. What to do……

Stef is a self centered jerk! In other news, Dez is allergic to dogs. This will extend this arc for another week.

I can’t believe that these women still haven’t thought of checking for a microchip. Like, really? You find a dog and he’s automatically your “new puppers”? He’s obviously well fed and cared for, so he’s obviously a loved pet who’s gotten lost.

And Stef is behaving exactly the way I thought she would.

Typical Stef… She brings in a dog for Tiffany to look after.

Who could be allergic to puddles??

I detest arrogant selfish people. Why, yes, Steph, I AM speaking of you.

No kidding – I SO know people just like Stef.

“Oh how I hate her”

OK.. maybe Tiff takes Puds to work at the Fuse where he is recognized

Oh the drama when Luann finds out—

I don’t even care how Puddles is reunited with Luann anymore … just as long as Stef is written out in the process!

Today’s show: The Irresponsibles, a gang of oh-so-clever college kids who are not mature enough to care for a pet. What does that say for returning Puddles to (uh-oh) Luann?!

Turns out that Dez is allergic to dog dander.

Tiffany has been around Luann for a long time. She should know that’s her dog . . .come on, I know it’s only a comic, but really???!!!!

This arc has worn out its welcome. Steffi is a jerk, and the sneaky kind, too. Pretends to be nice, but only if it serves her purpose. Loathsome.

How long before worthless gets bounced from the dorm?
