Marmaduke by Brad Anderson for August 24, 2023

Thick as a “prick”.

A very “thorny” problem.

It would behoove Marm to tiptoe through the ……… tulips!!!!!

/SHMIRK/

Those are the neighbor’ s roses which are redder.

Would have thought, after the first thorn jab he would have stopped.

Oh, my sweet Marm!

At least it was roses and not a porcupine, like “Bliss” had yesterday… https://www.gocomics (dot) com/bliss/2023/08/23

Try pyracantha next time

Should have just dug the whole rose plant up, its safer.

And when she’s done here, she has to go field the complaint from the owner of the garden!

I’ve seen several episodes of The Amazing Dr. Pol where dogs have tussled with porcupines and epically lost. The bad thing is that when those dogs encounter another one, they remember the pain and go after it again in revenge! “Ya big dummy!” – Don Rickles.

Poor Marm …… the thought was nice, Marm ……… but next time, maybe settle with carnations ……… ;)

aw

Marm meant well.
