    60 – it used to be very old, today it is comparable to 40.

    Now we might know why Fred wan’t allowed to go outside: the Dears didn’t want him to see how they decked the garden for the festivities :-)

    Have we yet met the brown dachshound sitting besides big bruce?

    I thought that might have been Alex Graham to the left of The Dears but he has a mustache. Did Mr Graham have a mustache at one point?

    I’m missing something. Fred first appeared on 8 July 1963, by Alex Graham. His daughter Aaron Keith and Michael Martin took over in 1993 after Alex passed. I place Fred at 60 years. Is it possible that there has been several juvenile delinquent is running around impersonating the original Fred?

    The Law of Carternity, which keeps human characters the same age for decades and extends the lifespans of dogs and cats for the duration of the strip.
