For Better or For Worse by Lynn Johnston for June 27, 2021

know of any dogs who like having a bath?

Love the look on Farley’s face!

Trying to decide between praising Michael’s ingenuity or chastising his waste of some perfectly good hot dogs.

That’s an awfully long setup for what ends up being Mike having to tackle Farley at the end. Now, if the wieners had led Farley all the way into the tub, that would be different from the usual “Farley hates getting bathed” joke.

All those little bits of sausage just for taking a bath? Totally worth it.

Farley’s face is hilarious! Best laugh of the day and still smiling. 8D

Lynn’s Comments:

We actually did this to get the dog outside for a bath. It worked beautifully.

Our family dog hated taking baths. She’d struggle when I carried her to the washtub. Then I began using a hair dryer afterwards, and she just loved it.

By hook or by crook, the dog gets his bath

Mine LOVE having a bath.

Farley got played.

“Kids, I’d planned to have hot dogs for dinner, but they disappeared. So instead we’re having spinach and tofu casserole.”

‘Farley’ has learned……if ‘Mike’ is looking for him…..it can’t be good ! ! !!

Hah! Betrayed by his baser instincts. Been there. Done that.

I surely would NOT want to wash that furry mountain of a dog. Can you imagine the comb out?

I wonder how many times he’s fallen for that?

I used to have Old English Sheepdogs, it was a half day project to give them a bath. Drying them took over an hour each.

Better Farley than a cat. Trying to give a cat a bath can mean carrying more than a few scars on your arms for a few days.

“RATS. Foiled by my love of food AGAIN.>:(”

Poor Farley, getting tricked.

Dirty trick!

Aw Farley at least you got bribed with sausage.

I’ve had ten dogs…no. Cats even less. You’re lucky to live through giving them a bath! I had one that purred through it. Poor cat had cancer.

I worked at animal hospital and we we had a couple of St, Bernard’s that would come in for various things. the male was 150 lb. named Thor. He was always getting muddy and full o stickers. twice he got sprayed by a skunk and we had to give him a tomato juice bath. He loooved it.

Ha! I just noticed the stinky sock on the headboard. Great!
