Kind of dangerous. Edgar is not Farley and he is known for his vicious biting. Just ask John’s foot. John looks pretty alarmed in that last panel for good reason.
From Lynn’s Comments:We had a neighbour in Lynn Lake who had three boys. Their dog was used to all kinds of crazy treatment. One of the things the youngest did was straddle the dog like a motorcycle and make engine sounds while twisting his ears as if he was turning the throttle. Amazingly, the dog was perfectly fine with this!

This is the very beginning of April’s career path, believe it or not because it states in the epilogue that she moves to the country to go to college and becomes a veterinarian. It’s actually very interesting because we don’t know that Mike wants to be a writer until he’s halfway through high school and we have no idea that Liz wants to be a teacher until she graduates from Grade 13th (yes, it was a thing during the original run) and is in university. With April, we get very subtle hints throughout the series and I like that for her character. This is why the final strips shouldn’t have been so Liz-heavy, I would have appreciated it more of the Pattersons sending their youngest to college and saying, “We did it. Now we can retire.” But beggars can’t be choosers.

She hasn’t got a six-shooter, either—thank goodness!

I tried to ride our dog when I was a toddler. She would just stand up and slide me off.
