Speed Bump by Dave Coverly for July 20, 2023

Well, it could work. Worth a try, I mean he’s got nothing to lose.

You could roll over and play dead?

If all else fails… be like a terrier and constantly dig your way out!

I’m ashamed to tell you how hard I laughed at this!

And you guys are all hysterical!

Or just use the pet door.

Spend time in the big house you either plead insanity or get religion.

Switch genders for a change of view!

Maybe they could give him his own special secluded padded room far away from everyone else.

Try puppy dog eyes.

He’d have to wag his tail too.

He would get transferred to the happy home with trees and flowers and chirping birds and basket weavers who sit and smile and twiddle their thumbs and toes.

Who hasn’t been a good boy?

I have seen several doors that have been clawed and chewed through.

LOL! It’s a dog eat dog world out there….

LOL!!

That’s a dog-gone good idea!!!

Yeah, but they treat PITAs differently inside. Ever hear of “the hole”?

You may be transferred to another ‘institution’ that could be similar. Albeit with softer walls, more windows, and possibly better food.

And for God’s sake, don’t try hump-ing the guard’s leg.

“Works for me!”

“Yeah, tried that. All it got me was a rabies shot.”

An “opposite” story: During the Vietnam War, a fellow (I’ve forgotten his name, but he was known to some friends of mine) was jailed for resisting the draft. In years in prison, he literally never spoke a word, although he could. He was eventually let out early, because the prison staff was too spooked by that behavior.
