Red and Rover by Brian Basset for October 05, 2024

And canines are divine! BTW, how old is Red supposed to be?

He’s nine or ten, depending what I was doing in my childhood that inspires me to create.

Just ask Buckles.

Love it

In a nutshell, this is the wonderful reason why I love reading this strip every morning. Thank you Brian.

Another heart melter.

We cherish dogs because their unblemished souls make us wish – consciously or unconsciously – that we were as innocent as they are, and make us yearn for a place where innocence is universal and where the meanness, the betrayals, and the cruelties of this world are unknown.” A Big Little Life: A Memoir of a Joyful Dog (2009) Dean Koontz

So wonderful to see a happy ending to this story! When I first started reading Gocomics years ago, it was just Red and Rover, my most beloved strip. For weeks I was afraid to write in the comments section, but finally got up the nerve, and now feel comfortable and ‘at home’ here. Thank you, Brian for a wonderful strip!

I start my day with Red and Rover because I want to begin the day with love and happiness. It really makes a difference. Thank you, Brian.

Dogs can make the best friends……

There’s a lot of love between those two.

Awww… a Boy and his Dog at its best.

Rover is one divine canine!

Tough not to love these two.

Short memory….really helps!!!

That is so true. Today I had to take my dog Shilo to the Vet’s to have his nails clipped and and injection for inflamed skin. He’s alright getting injections but absolutely HATES getting his nails done. He just struggles to get away from the clippers and it is quite a job for the vet and I to see to him. Still, when we got home he forgave me and even came up for a cuddle. Dogs are just so amazing and we are so lucky to have them.

To err is human. To forgive is not company policy.

I love this strip and read it in the Orange County Register. However, they don’t print the Sunday edition, so I am glad to get it here. Thank you for sharing your talents with us, Brian!
